Ads That Failed NORELCO.jpg

Sybil Bruncheon's "ADS THAT FAILED!"... Boys and girls! Did you know that many of the products and services that we use and love every day almost went out of business because of poor advertising? Well, it's true! Here's one! The first commercial for the Lady Norelco Razor!

Sybil’s “31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN”…. Another foray into Science Fiction!

HALLOWEEN Target Earth Film (798).jpg

Another chance to rehabilitate my blacklisted career came when I was asked to be in TARGET EARTH (1954). It always fascinated me that the robot in this film was constructed from a giant Kleenex box and two Electrolux vacuum cleaner hoses.... If nothing else, after invasion from outer space, one’s house would be thoroughly clean and germ free....  But poor Richard Denning!!! Forced to spend the 1950s fighting off Kleenex-Box robots, giant black scorpions, three-eyed atomic monsters, and fish-man creatures in black lagoons, ....and when he finally gets a chance with Deborah Kerr in AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER (1957), she throws him over for Cary Grant! Talk about jilted!!!!

Sybil Bruncheon’s “31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN!”…. My Science Fiction Career!

HALLOWEEN Robot Monster Film (797).jpg

I was offered the female lead in the film THEY CALL ME MRS. GORILLA-ROBOT-THING FROM URANUS (1956) as a way to "rehabilitate" my career after the Hollywood Blacklisting scandals....but I just couldn't! I said it would be better to be thought of as a left-wing sympathizer and work as a late-night cashier at the Piggly Wiggly than to be carried screaming into a pie-tin flying saucer by a giant dust-bunny! ...on the other hand, I DID miss the opportunity to do scenes in FRONT of the camera (and in my dressing room!) with a shirtless George Nader. Poor George, he was gratuitously undressed through much of the ten day filming schedule... most of it in a roadside motel...or in the alley in back! Yes, I can read your minds.... "classy"....

Sybil Bruncheon's "31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN": Curtain UP!

Halloween Private Lives (714D).jpg

...Hey Facebook Friends! Aren’t sure what you’re doing on the evening of the 31st yet, but you don’t want to be home for Trick-or-Treaters??...well, the Shubert Organization and a posse of producers are proud to present a special new play to premiere that very night; PRIVATE LIVES…ON URANUS!! The new interpretation of the Noël Coward classic will feature the regular characters, Amanda, Victor, and Sybil, but the character of Elyot has been replaced by a suave yet psychotically dangerous and petty robot… his behavior, alternately murderous and then gossipy and condescending, (with a cigarette holder!) vexes the other lovers and eliminates the servants one-by-one. A frayed extension cord, a sudden Spring shower, and a stale scone bring the riotously funny and frightful horror-comedy to a very satisfying close…albeit in an oxygen-free atmosphere at -276°F….
