Bill Cardille est un Acteur né le 10 décembre 1928 à Farrell (Etats-Unis)
William Robert Cardille (born December 10, 1928) — known as Bill Cardille and "Chilly Billy" — is a broadcast personality from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Originally from Sharon, Pennsylvania, Cardille first worked at WICU in Erie. He was for many years a fixture on Channel 11 (formerly call letters WIIC, now WPXI), the NBC affiliate in Pittsburgh, and was the first voice heard when WIIC went on the air on September 1, 1957.
Chiller Theater
After years of hosting many other local shows on WIIC (at a time where local stations often produced a significant amount of local programming), Cardille became host of the show for which he is probably best known: Chiller Theatre, a late night Saturday program that showed horror and science fiction films. The show earned him his nickname "Chilly Billy." The program aired from 1963 until its cancellation in 1983. Joe Flaherty, a Pittsburgh native, acknowledges this show as an influence in the formation of the popular "Monster Chiller Horror Theatre" sketches on SCTV.
Other work
Cardille also hosted other programs including Studio Wrestling, and a combination game show /movie program that ran in the late afternoon. He hosted a teen dance show, the Four O'Clock Money Movie, and Movies to Laugh By for WIIC. He remains the local host for the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon. Cardille appeared in both the 1968 original version and the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead, in the television movie, The Assassination File, and in the documentary American Scary. He was especially famous in Boston, where the weekly pro wrestling program was extremely popular. Cardille also called the play-by-play of western Pennsylvania high school basketball playoff games for many years on WQED-TV, the Pittsburgh PBS affiliate. Cardille also hosted morning radio shows on Pittsburgh radio stations WWSW and WIXZ.
Outside of broadcasting, Cardille owned and operated Chilly Billy Cardille Travel and Tours in Wexford for many years, which was managed by his son, Bill Jr.

Barbra Blair et son frère Johnny se rendent en Pennsylvanie pour venir se recueillir sur la tombe de leur père. Ce rite annuel irrite Johnny, qui cherche à effrayer Barbra, en lui affirmant que les morts vont venir la chercher. Barbra, énervée, s'isole, et se fait agresser par une personne à la démarche mécanique et au visage ravagé. Son frère la défend, mais meurt dans la lutte, la tête fracassée contre une pierre tombale. Barbra s'enfuit et se réfugie dans une ferme isolée, où elle découvre le corps mutilé d'une femme. Voulant quitter la maison, elle est confrontée à l'homme du cimetière et d'autres étranges personnages menaçants. Un routier afro-américain, Ben, la rejoint, et barricade portes et fenêtres avec des planches. Il trouve aussi une radio et un fusil de chasse. Barbra s'évanouit, et reste en état de choc à son réveil.
