Night Flight - Kiss Special (1983)
- 47:38
This video is only available with Night Flight+.
synopsis
An unfamiliar voice welcomes us to the proceedings in this Night Flight Original episode: “Tonight, we introduce you to the men behind the masks with an exclusive interview as well as concert films from their Inner Sanctum and Japanese tours.” By now, you must know this voice is NOT regular host Pat Prescott and the band he IS talking about is Kiss. Put it all this together, and you realize this is one of the early uncut lost episodes of Night Flight! Sure, clips from this interview pop up here and there (like in last year's IFC Time Capsule's) but never in the long-form version that appears before us today. This is where the Night Flight saga began, folks. You can almost smell the potential! (And flammable hairspray).
