In the summer of 1995 during an interview on KZSU's the Lovechild's show, Radio Damage (interview by Trash Merchant) Jerry mentioned wanting to bring back Chiller Theatre. Originally he stated that he and Doyle were shooting pilots during the summer, in hopes of hitting the airwaves in time for Halloween

"What we're gonna do is we're gonna have a horror show on where we host it and we have guests in the middle, like painters (like Basil Gogos or Boris Valejo) or sculptors and prop guys who make masks and stuff like that. We're gonna try and bring on all the different aspects of horror movie making and bring on guests and show all these old '50's B movies. Not the real corny ones, the real cool ones like The Crawling Eye and Sun Demon and stuff like this. We're gonna give you guys all kinds of background information on them. It's not gonna be like the Elvira thing (which was kind of corny) where she's always making fun of them. We ain't doin' that. We're going to actually make it like a documentary on each movie and try and bring in a guest for it that coincides with what the movie is about."

In an interview published in Ink Nineteen October 1995, Jerry mentioned that they (he and Doyle) would be shooting three pilots for Chiller Theatre in September of that year; obviously the interview was originally done well before September/October.

And finally in a February 1996 interview with Terrorizer Jerry had this to say about the project; "And we shot a couple of movie pilots...we're trying to bring back 'Chiller Theatre', which was a Saturday night horror show that was aired here once a week. It's more or less a midnight witching hour on TV, where we'd show old horror films, and we just got done shooting the first of the pilots of it this last weekend. So, we're working on out own TV show, which we're trying to sell to one of the networks."

Nothing ever happened with the pilots although bootlegs are floating around out there, one of the last mentions of the show was during an interview by Christopher Lee Schneberger after The Misfits™ performed at the Egyptian Ballroom in Indianapolis, IN. At one point during the interview various fiends begin asking their own questions, one of which was; "When are we going to see Chiller Theater?", to which Jerry replied; "It's called the Fiend Club now, the guy with the Chiller Theater name gave us a hard time so we had to blow him off.".

During one episode of "Fiend Club" Jerry and Doyle host Horror Hotel (1960) and interview Roger Corman (producer/director) as well as a clip of The Misfits performing Dr. Phibes Rises Again; they also host Hideous Sun Demon (1959) and interview Basil Gogos during another episode. I believe another movie they host is The Crawling Eye (1958) and the last interview is with Ben Chapman.

The segments were Produced/Directed/Scripted by Ken "Rocky" Caiafa; Production Supervisor/Director of Photography Al Ryan.
