Podcast appearances and mentions of Ernest Thesiger

Five strangers gather in a spooky house filled with secrets during a terrible storm, and meanwhile two podcasters gather in different time zones to discuss it- join Borgo Pass host Jim Towns and Ian Bates of The Monster Archives podcast as they discuss James Whale's Frankenstein follow-up: 1932's THE OLD DARK HOUSE, starring Boris Karloff, Ernest Thesiger, Melvyn Douglas, Gloria Stuart, Lilian Bond, Raymond Massey and Charles Laughton. 

Bride of Frankenstein (1935):  Directed by James Whale, this classic horror film stars Boris Karloff as the Monster and Colin Clive as Dr. Henry Frankenstein. The story follows Henry Frankenstein, who is coerced by his former mentor, Dr. Pretorius (played by Ernest Thesiger), and his original creation, the Monster, to create a mate for the Monster. Despite his initial reluctance, Henry eventually constructs the Bride (portrayed by Elsa Lanchester). However, the Bride rejects the Monster, leading to a tragic and fiery conclusion. The Bride (1985):  Directed by Franc Roddam, this film reimagines the Frankenstein story and stars Sting as Baron Charles Frankenstein and Jennifer Beals as Eva. Unlike the original Monster, Eva is physically perfect and human-like. However, she is repulsed by the Monster (played by Clancy Brown) and rejects him, leading to a series of dramatic events. The cast also includes Geraldine Page and David Rappaport.

Bryan and Dave are joined by Tyler Hyde, co-host of the That's Spooky podcast to close out their 2024 Pride series and talk about James Whale's 1935 Magnum Opus, Bride of Frankenstein. It's an absolutely gonzo gothic horror from the dawn of the talkies featuring more thrills and excitement in one of the earliest sequels that somehow manages to end up a better movie than the original. Bride of Frankenstein is a high-energy affair packed with unbelievable characters and performances from some a-list weirdos of their era such as Ernest Thesiger as the sinister Doctor Praetorius and the lovely Elsa Lanchester playing duo roles and Mary Shelley and the iconic Bride who, despite your expectations, occupies the screen for a scant few minutes but still manages to leave a powerful mark on the history of film. There is also a deeply queer interpretation of the movie which begs the question, was this subtext intended by James Whale? Was it purely subconscious? Are we just reaching? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bring-me-the-axe/message

Arguably the greatest sequel of all-time, as the Monster learns to speak and experience human emotions.  Starring Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester, Colin Clive and Ernest Thesiger.  Directed by James Whale.

It's a stormy night somewhere in Wales, and three travelers are having a rough go of it: married couple Phillip and Margaret Waverton, and their passenger in the back seat, the dapper Penderel. That's when they come upon a house, which is, shockingly, old… and dark. They manage to gain entrance after convincing the mute, lumbering butler, Morgan, that they are indeed in distress, and are soon greeted by the house's main occupants, the elderly Femms, Horace and his hard of hearing sister Rebecca. The Femms offer the travelers supper, but as the sternly religious Rebecca finds it inappropriate, no beds. As they sit down to eat a meal of meat and potatoes, two more travelers burst in – the jolly Sir William Porterhouse and his personal companion, Gladys Duquesne. Or is it Perkins? As the evening wends from dinner to conversation to an interest in the rest of the house, things take a turn for the weird, and soon, all are ensnared in a trap – not just to make it through the storm, but to get out of the house alive.

It's not exactly a Christmas movie to close out Holiday Season on the main show this week, but Morgan and Jeannine have a lovely instalment of "DeJaView" discussing this movie in comparison with its 2006 remake starring Queen Latifah & LL Cool J, which is much snowier, goofier and does feature a New Years party so it fits just fine! They're talking and celebrating the existential, typically dry, British dark comedy LAST HOLIDAY (1950) starring Alec Guinness as a lonely man who finds out he has only a few weeks to live and sets out to make the most of it, find love and open himself up.

Tom and Jenny talk about another Universal classic, this one from 1932 and directed by James Whale. It’s based on the 1927 novel Benighted by J.B. Priestley, and stars Boris Karloff, Melvyn Douglas, Gloria Stuart, Charles Laughton, Lilian Bond, Ernest Thesiger, Raymond Massey and Eva Moore.

José gave an introduction to the MAC's screening of The Old Dark House, a 1932 comedy horror directed by James Whale, focusing on queerness. James Whale was openly gay - although what it meant to be openly gay in the 1930s is up for discussion - and knowledge of his sexuality has led to interpretations of his work in that light, including Frankenstein (1931) and The Invisible Man (1933). The Old Dark House arguably invites such readings more explicitly than those, with the demeanour of Ernest Thesiger as Horace Femm (not to mention his surname), the relationship between Morgan (Boris Karloff) and Saul (Brember Wills), and the casting of a woman in the role of patriarch, with actress Elspeth Dudgeon credited as John Dudgeon. As well as its queerness, we discuss its preponderance of tropes and how well they cohere, its use of distorted imagery, its pacing and more. Recorded on 27th November 2022.

Front Row Classics concludes it's MonsterCast output for 2021 with not only a great horror film, but a great piece of cinema altogether. Brandon and Eric break down 1935's Bride of Frankenstein. This sequel  ,in many ways, improves upon the 1931 original with incredible production design and universal themes. The hosts praise James Whale's impressive direction and camerawork which compliments the incomparable performances of Boris Karloff as the Monster and Elsa Lanchester as the Bride. We also look at Ernest Thesiger's macabre performance as Dr. Pretorius and the legacy of ghoulish imitators that came after.

Prep your cone hair and your swan screams because we're travelling back to the 30s to tackle another James Whale film. This time it's the iconic The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), which features no shortage of queer talent (Whale, Ernest Thesiger, Colin Clive) OR queer readings (the Creature as Other; Dr. Frankenstein and Pretorius as gay dads; Pretorius as corruptor/mentor to the Creature, etc).We discuss the importance of the opening sequence featuring Elsa Lanchester as Mary Shelley, criticize the idiocy of Joseph Breen and the Hays Code, and touch on the film's connection to German Expressionism.Plus: cum wrestling, praise for Una O'Connor's hilarious performance, a discussion of whether Whale intended the film to be read as queer, and speculation about why The Bride has become a horror icon (it's the lewk, henny!)References:Benshoff, Harry M.

Thom and Bill dissect minute 49 of BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN.

Ernest Thesiger

In this week's installment of Catching Up On Cinema's, Catching Up On Black & White event, Kyle and Trevor review James Whales', The Bride of Frankenstein (1935)! Often heralded as Whales' masterpiece, and a standout among the first cycle of Universal horror films, the movie is a lively and campy classic of horror cinema. Starring Boris Karloff as the monster, and Elsa Lanchester as the titular bride, the films' true MVP is Ernest Thesiger as the conniving and reptilian Dr. Pretorious. Wonderfully shot and lit, with lavish production design and sets, the film deserves special note as being not a only a sequel that betters it's predecessor, but a sequel that represents a massive leap forward in nearly every regard.

In celebration of its 85th Anniversary, Jim, Mark and Madeline discuss a Universal Classic directed by James Whale, "Bride of Frankenstein," starring Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester, Colin Clive. Ernest Thesiger, Valerie Hobson and Dwight Frye. Considered by some to be the greatest Universal Monster Movie ever made, "Bride" has established itself as on of the BFI Top-10 films of all time. Find out more about this gem on this week's episode of "Monster Attack!"

Welcome to It's A Wonderful Podcast!! What a perfect movie for Valentine's Day as Morgan and Nolan wrap up their Universal Monsters double feature and talk James Whale's BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935); again starring Boris Karloff as the monster and Colin Clive as Henry Frankenstein with the perfect additions of Elsa Lanchester as the bride and Ernest Thesiger as Dr. Pretorious!! It is particularly rare in the horror genre to find a sequel that truly excels on what the original laid the foundations of; this does exactly that. It is bolder and more heartfelt all the while being campy and often funny. There is nothing but love for this movie in this episode!!

Crack open the (party) poppers! The Screaming Queenz are 100 episodes old! We thought we should go back to our roots and cover camp Gothic classic 'The Old Dark House'. Directed by uber-queen James Whale and starring the next level queen Ernest Thesiger, this movie has queerness running through its veins as a group of stranded travellers take shelter at the rambling home of the Femms (no, really). JB Priestly's examination of post-war broken Britain became a Universal monster movie... without the monsters... but it did have Boris Karloff and Charles Laughton amongst a stellar cast, not to mention a surprise moment of cross-dressing... So have a po-ta-to, sit back and enjoy our take on a bona fide camp classic.

As a follow-up to our Frankenstein episode from last year, we're having a lil' bit of the bubbly and watching its superior sequel, Bride of Frankenstein! Starring Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Valerie Hobson, Ernest Thesiger, and Elsa Lanchester as the title character, Bride is more complex, more audacious, more jam-packed with social commentary, and more fun than the first film. Bride is the apex of the classic Universal Monster movies and it's still fascinating to watch over 80 years later. Join us as we discuss, analyze and laugh!

It is Wednesday and that means it is time to talk about horror movies! Our month long celebration of the classic Universal monsters continues with one of the all time great films in any canon: James Whale's 1935 masterpiece BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN starring Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Ernest Thesiger, and Elsa Lanchester. Karloff speaks, the Monster demands a mate, and even author Mary Shelley makes an appearance in this influential film that still looks as fresh and ahead of its time as it did when it came out 84 years ago! Pour yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up and get ready to howl at the moon. It's time for The Late Night Fright! 

Love is in the air for monsters, and the team are joined for this episode by special guest Lady Jennifer (The Bride of Lee’n’stein). We dial back the clock to another true classic of Universal Horror, and cinema in general: “The Bride of Frankenstein”, in which Ernest Thesiger grows his own, Karloff shares a blunt with a blind man, and Una O’Connor gets the fear. A lot. Along the way, Lady Jennifer roasts chestnuts on an open fire, Lee unboxes our Welcome To Horror T-Shirts, and Adam is swallowed by a sofa. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers, and join us. [For anyone wondering - the outro music for this episode is the Bride herself, Elsa Lanchester singing “Fiji Fanny”, from her delightful album “Elsa Lanchester Sings Bawdy Cockney Songs”]

JB and Eddie continue Halloween Month by continuing their discussion of Frankenstein with three films: "Bride of Frankenstein," "Son of Frankenstein," and Mel Brooks' "Young Frankenstein!" Listen in as the guys discuss the tragedy of Colin Clive, Ernest Thesiger as a William Regal/Rick Sanchez combination, and how Young Frankenstein managed to pay homage to all of the original Universal Trilogy and still make a good movie!

It's another Universal Classic as Jim looks at James Whale's 1935 follow-up to "Frankenstein" - "Bride Of Frankenstein," starring Boris karloff, Colin Clive, Ernest Thesiger, Elsa lanchester, Valerie Hobson and Dwight Frye. Victor Frankenstein is having second thoughts about his quest, when Dr. Pretorius shows up with an offer he can't refuse. Find out what happens on this episode of "Monster Attack."

James Whale's 1935 follow-up to his film Frankenstein is a tour-de-force of gothic story-telling and all around ghoulish fun. Karloff adds another layer to his portrayal of The Monster while the highly nostrilled Ernest Thesiger weirds everyone out as the alchemist Dr. Praetorius.
