Description: Killer shark movies got their start back in the '50s, and ended up being a film genre all their own that continues to be explored to this very day. From the absurd and ridiculous to the serious and realistic, there is no shortage of shark movies, over 180 of them, including the Japanese dubbed sequel, Monsutākirāsame 2 from 1978.
Description: Formed in Birmingham, England in 1978, Charged GBH were early pioneers of British street punk, a genre commonly known as 'UK 82.' Charged GBH went on to influence countless punk musicians, but their influence has been especially far-reaching in metal and thrash. The band's name was originally 'Charged GBH,' a reference to being charged with grievous bodily harm (G.B.H.), but was eventually shortened to just 'GBH.' GBH embarked on several English and mainland US tours during the early '80s, and would go on to release a dozen studio albums, all while maintaining their signature sound.
Description: Much of the town of Roslyn, Washington, is instantly recognizable for fans of '90s dramedy Northern Exposure - because it looks about the same as it did back when Mort the Moose wandered through the opening credits as Roslyn stood in for the fictional town of Cicely, Alaska. One of the more colorful highlights of the intro is the Roslyn Cafe mural with a temporary addition to make it read 'Roslyn's Cafe' for TV. The real location's sandstone building started life as a general store, and later a butcher shop, before hosting fraternal orders of miners, and eventually becoming a cafe in the late '70s. Despite its prominence in the opening credits and ongoing association with the show, Roslyn's Cafè is never featured in a single episode.

Description: Haddonfield Memorial Hospital is located in Haddonfield, Illinois and aside from being one of the regions businesst hospitals, is home to the Haddonfield Memorial Softball Team, one of the winningest teams in the Illinois Softball League. Well, until the fall of 1978. On Halloween that year, the hospital staff did not know that they would encounter the serial killer known as Michael Myers who would be in search of his sister, Laurie Strode. As he made his way through the hospital, he killed a security guard, a paramedic, a doctor, and four nurses. The doctor killed that night was Dr. Frederick Mixter - the team's star player - so subsequent seasons were awash in failure and the team would never again see another championship.

Description: We came across this gem in a thrift shop in Spokane, Washington and knew it had to make a comeback. Given the rather generic name of the company, we weren't able to track down much about them, but know they were founded in 1978 and apparently bulldoze things in the Twin Falls, Idaho area. What more could you ask for?
