Surprisingly enough, yes.

Though films with premises, and casts, like this one are often lost to the obscurity of time, "Horror at 37,000 Feet" somehow was not.

The telefilm, aired on CBS in 1973, featured such names as William Shatner and Buddy Ebsen (a strange pairing to say the least) in its tale of an architect and his wife to bring an ancient Druid altar aboard a transatlantic flight. A demon is unleashed from the altar and, in an attempt to kill the architect's seemingly innocent wife, threatens the lives of everyone on the flight.

Sadly it is not available on DVD, or VHS for that matter. Fans such as yourself are stuck looking for it in the late hours on cable.

And there are a lot of you.

In hindsight, it seems designed for cult status, with the aforementioned Shatner leading a cast of B-movie favorites that also features Chuck Connors (of 1973's "Soylent Green") and low-budget legend Russel Johnson (star of such classics as 1953's "It Came From Outer Space" and 1955's "This Island Earth").

And it achieved it. Retro-film site Kindertrauma.com called it "schlock-adelic," and badmovieplanet.com said there's enough "scenery eating, mostly by Shatner, to qualify as a real cinematic treat."
