Wonder Woman - The Phantom of the Roller Coaster on DVD

[thrillerman1]

I did a search and couldn't find a topic on this 1979 TV show episode featuring Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman at Magic Mountain. If a topic thread has covered this before then feel free to bring out the lock police.

 

Anyway, I had heard about this two part episode of Wonder Woman mentioned somewhere before but had forgotten about it till recently. I had an idea my library might have the DVD, so I checked out their catalog and sure enough there it was! I put it on reserve, and it finally came this week. I watched it today, and it was pretty cheesy but in a good way! This amazing show was filmed at Magic Mountain and has a TON of great old school footage featuring POVs of Revolution and Colossus, the Intamin Galaxy wheel, skyride POVs, a chase scene through the Schwarzkopf Mountain Express, and lots of night scenes of rides long gone from the park. I would say the footage shot for this TV show is better than what I've seen from around the same time period as shown in the movies "Rollercoaster" and "Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park"!

 

Anyone else seen it? Run, don't walk, to your local library and get it if they have it! Totally two thumbs up.
