A few things are maybe best left covered and overlooked.
In any case, consistent with the soul of the late-night schlock stun motion pictures that Ghoulardi himself jumped at the chance to show and ridicule — the current year's GhoulardiFest has uncovered the sacred vessel of such movies.
The lost motion picture stars Ghoulardi himself — the late Ernie Anderson — and has been covered up in a safe for a considerable length of time.
Shot in 1967, Too Late To Pray was really conceived in Cleveland while Anderson (otherwise known as Ghoulardi) was still in the city facilitating the notable Shock Theater on WJW-TV, Channel 8 from Jan. 13, 1963, through Dec. 16, 1966.
Yet, it wasn't until he wandered west to California to in the end harden his profession as a voice on-screen character that his fantasy to make a film happened as expected and in the long run disappointment.
Old stories has it that while still in Cleveland, Anderson hit up a kinship with Ralph Mayer who was filling in as a cameraman at an opponent TV station. Anderson shared that he might some time or another want to star in a film.
Quick forward a couple of years, and the two were reacquainted in Los Angeles, and Mayer alongside his better half, Gypsie, who had shaped a narrative film organization, set out to make a motion picture gazing Anderson.
GhoulardiFest promoter Ron Garsteck said the film was, to be respectful, a touch of catastrophe.

For one, Garsteck said, Anderson had an awful time acting in the film.
"Ernie had an incredible voice, yet had a terrible memory," he said.
Also, the storyline was somewhat of an extend, around three folks who break out of Alcatraz, and the sole survivor goes out and gets plastic surgery and winds up looking simply like Anderson.
So the film then takes after Anderson, who has discovered salvation, advancing around hipster filled San Francisco at the tallness of the counter war development, hoping to spare some wayward souls.
"It was somewhat of a strange motion picture, yet with Ernie, every one of his productions and things he did were quite odd," he said.
Once the shooting wrapped up, Garsteck said the negatives were buried. "I figure they figured the motion picture wasn't going to do as such great, so they secured it up a protected," he said.
Garsteck said the film's whereabouts turned into a riddle, and when the safe containing the negatives was moved, the entire thing went MIA.
The safe was found a few years back, and Mayher start altering the crude negatives into a last film that will be demonstrated first at GhoulardiFest furthermore accessible available to be purchased on DVD.
