Great to see an interview with Gary Crutcher. I can't say that I am familiar with him or his work but as the writer of House of Zodiac it is nice to get an idea about the guy.

A friend of mine was able to contact Gary Crutcher, and Crutcher has (supposedly) agreed to contact me to discuss House of Zodiac! I'm pretty excited and hopefully there will be some answers if this film could at all be related to the Zodiac crimes.

Have you tried to contact Paul Koslo, the lead in the movie? Maybe he would grant you an interview.

What??? I found the movie on IMDb and mentioned it to Matthew in chat one night but I forgot to create a thread on it. It was a fun movie to research and talk about, but I think it has hit a dead end.

Gary says with a laugh. "It was based on a five-day bum acid trip I had taken, about the same time Nicholson wrote THE TRIP. We had thirteen beautiful girls in it, including Rita Murray (RUNAWAY RUNAWAY) and Lavelle Roby (FINDERS KEEPERS, LOVERS WEEPERS), each one representing a sign of the zodiac. Craig Rumar, Jack Starrett, Richard Compton and I were all involved as producers. We shot it on weekends for very little money and we were stoned out of our heads, but we did get the film made. There was an answer print and I saw it at a screening room on the Sunset Strip with Paul Koslo, who was the lead, and Crosby, Stills & Nash, who were going to do the music. But we ran out of money before we could finish it, and the story goes on and on and on from there. If anyone can find a print of it for me, they got $5,000. I really would love to see it again, and I could probably get it out on DVD."

that is pretty funny and another good example of what i mean by lots of people were taking lsd back then. even film makers and actors. i wish we could get to see this movie but it looks like that will never happen.
