Question for the "Herbie" buffs
Spook - July 16th, 2006 at 06:57 AM

I now have all the Herbie movies bar one. But I don't know it's name.

What was the name of the movie that had the "evil" black beetle & does anyone know where I can find it??

What are the names of the one's you've got Spook, then we'll go by deduction.

a few of you are correct . the movie that you are asking about was made in 1997 for TV only , and was called 'The Love Bug'
I did have a fair quality copy on video , and when we at WPVW decided to replicate 'HORACE' to race at Nowra speedway earlier this year , I gave the copy to the officials so that they could see what I was talking about .
They were kind enough to transfer it onto DVD for me . I will make enquiries as to whether the individual will make further copies . Wayne .

Thanks for that folks.
Just have to hold my breath til it comes round on telly again.


hipichic - July 17th, 2006 at 07:57 PM

After all that, I just noticed that i still have it on my PVR. I guess I will have to learn how to copy to my pc and burn to dvd!!
