    I'm having difficulty finding Ripper movies after the 2001 "From Hell" film. Does anyone know of the movies made after that one?

      Hi Billy,

      There were 3 or 4 movies planned but I don't know if any were completed. There's a version of The Lodger due out this year but I think it's a modernized version and not really JtR.
      This my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking.

        Shameless Commercial

        Since I've been simplifying my life and cleaning out a LOT of Ripper stuff, I will step in here and make a shameless plea for any, or all, of you to take most of these "Ripper" movies off my hands for $5 each plus post costs. Most are VHS, ALL are NTSC, but if that's an issue, a VERY good friend of mine can transfer them to almost any format for you..$5 per transfer. I DO have most of the really weird ones.. like "What the Swedish Butler Saw" among others. AND I have "Fog", the AVENGERS show.........

        If you care at all, or would like a list, just e-mail and ask.....

        Cheers and thanks. The movies are high on my list of favorite things and some of these really are collectible. They're also great fun at WS meetings or conferences.

        Cheers,

        Judy

          My list is nearing completion (as complete as I can make it), but I am running into a brick wall on one tv episode. Apparently there was an episode of the Mtv Spiderman animated series featuring JtR that was unaired. Does anyone know about this? I need the title of the episode and year it was produced. Thanks.

Tom Skerritt was in the episode, by the way. I was wrong about the wagon train (it's been a long time since I saw it), but it was set in the town where Stuart Whiteman is the Marshall.
            HI HO Mayerling, Would that by any chance be the TV show Cimmaron City

              Hi Giz,

              I thought the same thing at first but, no, they are two different shows. CITY was one of my favorite programs back in the 50s but I don't recall ever seeing STRIP.
              This my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking.

                I just borrowed my mothers DVD box set of the old "Kolchak: The Night Stalker" series. I loved that series when I was growing up and Darren Mcgavin was great. There is one episode in that series called "The Ripper" in which Jack is apparently immortal and now (I mean then) in 1970's Chicago.

                  Hi Gizmo,

                  CIMMARON CITY was something I never heard of, but it too was a Western that appeared on American television in 1958, starring George Montgomery (the husband of Dinah Shore at one time), Audrey Totter, and John Smith.
                  Jason Robarts Sr. (not Jr.) appeared on some episodes. But it was made a decade before CIMMARON STRIP, and it was (like CIMMARON STRIP) a failure, only lasting one year.

                  Thanks for bringing the series to my attention.

                  Jeff

                    For those of you interested I found out the Spiderman episode featuring JtR was never produced, just was planned for in case there was another season, which there wasn't.

                        The Night Stalker was the inspiration behind Chris Carter's X Files, a little show shown in the 90's, and with a new movie due out this year!

                          Unless you have something, leave off the "mythical" BLACK THE RIPPER.

                            I had originally included it, but have found out it never actually went into production. BET announced they would play "Black the Ripper", but many thought it to be a joke, because no one has ever found a single copy of the movie.
