Has anyone seen the modern one? Never had a chance to see it myself.

I've not seen it but from what I gather its a load of rubbish, I think I'll rent it first and make up my own mind.

Kolchak: The Night Stalker (TV series)
Gordon Spangler / Gordy / Gordy Spangler
– The Youth Killer (1975) … Gordy
– They Have Been, They Are, They Will Be... (1974) … Gordy Spangler
– The Zombie (1974) … Gordon Spangler

I thought id take a look at some of the recurring characters in the Kolchak universe,Gordon Spangler played by character actor John Fiedler,is really great as the morgue attendant on the take,whenever Carl needs some info on a corpse,then Gordy is the man.Great comic relief,especially considering his job,Such a great character that you feel he's in every episode,but only did 3,although a total stranger to patient confidentiality.

Jack Grinnage as Ron Updyke
wiki-
Ron Updyke works at INS with Carl Kolchak. He is a very uptight, easily insulted, petty, weenie of a man. Kolchak will often deliberately mangle his pronunciation of "Updyke" just to irritate him. For example, once Kolchak pronounced his last name as "Uptight". Ron became furious, and ran straight to their boss's office to tell on him.
Another of Ron's pet peeves is Kolchak parking in his (reserved) parking space. He even tried to have Kolchak's car towed once, but the plan backfired, when Kolchak switched cars.

The 2nd Kolchak film........The Night Strangler

Not alot of peope know this,according to IMDB-
At the end of the film Kolchak is telling Vincenzo and Janie Watkins (now both also out of work thanks to him) that he's going to drive them to New York City and that they'll love New York. Director Dan Curtis and screenwriter Richard Matheson had actually planned to do a third Kolchak movie set in NYC. In New York, Kolchak was going to discover that Janos Skorzeny - the vampire from the first film - was not only not dead, but active again! This film was going to complete a planned trilogy of Kolchak movies, entitled The Trilogy of Terror.

Kolchak vs Jaws or as his mum knows him Richard Kiel

A series of apparent suicides among high-society matrons coincides with a bizarre jewel theft by a towering Indian who mysteriously disappears when cornered. Carl must learn who the tall Indian is, why he's stealing gems and slaying their owners - and how to stop him forever.

I watched this episode last night (along with three others), I can't get enough of this series at the minute.
Great stills by the way, again :)
