Spirits are high and spooky season is nigh -- let's scare up a few cuties for this special Halloween episode! This week Frank and Joanne are "exorcizing" their rights, driven to desperate measures to rid their studio of its meddlesome poltergeist. There's also a pretty fundamental costume mix-up, it'll take more than a sugar cube to butter up Ruby this time. Meet a forgetful barfly channelling Karloff, a mistaken identity that might get murderous, a hottie lost on a campsite, and one fella who's really been playing the (potter's) field. Our callers this week included the talents of Levi Penley, Steve Hayes, Kat Letwin and Kristi Boulton. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger. Josie's Lonely Hearts Club is a semi-improvised audio drama set in the studio of New Mexico's 2nd-best relationship call-in show. On-air, Josie mends the broken hearts of a weekly collection of hilarious improvisers. Off-air, listeners get to eavesdrop on the life of Josie's secret identity: shy, unassuming Joanne Holtzinger. Join Joanne and her puckish producer Frank as they navigate the pitfalls of love and fame as the show slowly becomes a national sensation.

A perennial Halloween favorite, the novelty song "Monster Mash" was released in August 1962, and hit No. 1 two months later, just in time for Halloween. The song re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 37 in 2021, almost 60 years after its release.

Join us for "Saturday Matinee" on Vintage Classic Radio as we celebrate the spooky season with a show of comedic Halloween capers. Starting with "The Abbott and Costello Show" in the episode "Night in Haunted House" where the comedic duo finds themselves embroiled in a series of spooky and hilarious hijinks in a supposedly haunted mansion. Originally broadcast on May 8th, 1947, the show stars Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, alongside supporting voice talents that bring the eerie setting to life. Following that, we dive into the "Screen Guild Theater" presentation of "Arsenic and Old Lace", a delightfully macabre tale aired on November 25th, 1946. This episode bring the dark comedy of Mortimer Brewster, who discovers his charming aunts' penchant for poisoning lonely old men as an act of charity. The cast features a lineup of stars from the original movie starring Cary Grant as Mortimer Brewster, with Peter Lorre and Josephine Hull reprising their film roles, adding to the authenticity and excitement of the radio adaptation. Concluding our Halloween lineup is "The Sealtest Variety Hour" with the episode "Happy Halloween", which originally aired on October 28th, 1948. This episode is marked by the guest appearances of Boris Karloff and Jack Carlson, adding a touch of star-powered spookiness. Karloff, known for his iconic horror roles, and Carlson bring a mix of humour and horror to the show, making for a memorable Halloween celebration. Each show captures the essence of classic radio entertainment with a spooky twist, making this Saturday's lineup a perfect homage to the spirit of vintage Halloween radio programming.

EPISODE 58 - "CLASSIC CINEMA'S HORROR HEROES: BELA LUGOSI & BORIS KARLOFF" - 10/21/2024 When you think of the classic Universal Studios monster movies of the 1930s and 1940s, the two names that come to mind are always BORIS KARLOFF and BELA LUGOSI.

Welcome back to The Video Store Podcast, where every week I recommend four films for you to rent from the video store this week. Today, we're diving into the world of classic horror anthologies. These are films that tell several stories within one, often with a framing device that ties everything together. If you're a fan of short, chilling tales, this episode is for you. First up is Dead of Night from 1945. This British film is one of the earliest horror anthologies and remains highly influential. It features five stories, all connected by a group of strangers who meet at a country house and realize they've all been having strange dreams. It's one of the first films to introduce the now-classic “ventriloquist dummy” horror trope, with a segment that stands out as one of the creepiest of the film. Directors like Alfred Hitchcock and Federico Fellini have praised Dead of Night for its surreal and unsettling atmosphere.Next, we have Black Sabbath, a 1963 Italian horror anthology directed by Mario Bava. It's made up of three stories, and depending on which version you watch, the order of those stories might change. Boris Karloff, famous for his role as Frankenstein's monster, appears in the third story and also introduces each segment. Bava's use of color in this film is incredible, especially in “The Wurdalak,” a tale about vampires, which Karloff stars in. Bava's visual style and ability to create mood really shine here, and the film is often credited with helping to shape Italian horror.The third recommendation is Kwaidan from 1964, a Japanese anthology directed by Masaki Kobayashi. The film adapts four traditional Japanese ghost stories, each with a unique, haunting style. It's a slow-burn film, with gorgeous set design and a painterly use of color, especially in the story “The Woman of the Snow.” Kobayashi originally intended for the film to be much longer, but the studio asked him to cut it down, so there's even more footage that exists beyond the version most people know. Kwaidan was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, which isn't typical for horror movies, especially one with such a dreamlike, experimental approach.Finally, there's The House That Dripped Blood from 1971. This British anthology was produced by Amicus Productions, a studio known for its anthology films, and it's one of their best. The movie features four stories tied together by a detective investigating mysterious deaths at a house. Each tale explores different horror subgenres, from vampires to haunted waxworks. It stars some familiar faces like Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, who were regulars in British horror films of the era. The script was written by Robert Bloch, who's probably best known for writing Psycho, so you know the storytelling is solid.These four films are perfect examples of how diverse the anthology format can be, especially within the horror genre. They span different decades, countries, and styles, but all manage to deliver a range of creepy, atmospheric stories in one package. If you haven't explored horror anthologies before, these films are a great starting point.Thanks for listening to The Video Store Podcast. Be sure to check out these films, and I'll be back next week with more recommendations. This is a public episode.

This Saturday on Vintage Classic Radio's "Saturday Matinee", we kick off with a nostalgic return to Riverdale in the "Archie Andrews" episode titled "Halloween Party" from October 30th, 1948. In this lively episode, chaos and comedy ensue as Archie and his friends plan and execute a Halloween party, complete with costumes, pranks, and the usual misunderstandings. The cast includes Bob Hastings as Archie Andrews, Harlan Stone as Jughead Jones, Alice Yourman as Archie's mother Mary Andrews, Arthur Kohl as his father Fred Andrews, Gloria Mann as Veronica Lodge, and Rosemary Rice as Betty Cooper. Following Archie and his gang, we'll tune into the "Blondie and Dagwood" show for their episode "Blondie and the Halloween Spirit" from October 27th, 1948. The Bumsteads are swept up in Halloween festivities, with Dagwood trying to outdo the neighbours in Halloween decorations and Blondie managing the chaos while ensuring the kids enjoy the spooky holiday. The episode features Penny Singleton as Blondie Bumstead, Arthur Lake as Dagwood Bumstead, Larry Simms as their son Alexander, and Daisy the dog brings her own charm to the family antics. We conclude with a special treat from "Philco Radio Time" broadcasted on October 29th, 1947, featuring the iconic Boris Karloff and Victor Moore. In this memorable episode, Karloff brings his classic horror persona to radio, providing a mix of chills and laughs, while Victor Moore adds a comedic contrast that keeps the audience both amused and on edge. Bing Crosby leads the cast with his usual charm and warmth, accompanied by John Scott Trotter and his Orchestra, lending the show a musical flair alongside the thrilling guest performances. Join us for these three back-to-back episodes for a mix of humour, nostalgia, and a touch of spookiness this Saturday on Vintage Classic Radio.

Bueno, pues llegó el momento del año de hablar de una de Lugosi y Karloff, no? Ésta pseudo adaptación de Poe (muy pseudo) pone a Lugosi en la piel de un malvado cirujano capaz de hacer las más chungas perrerías. Y Karloff es una de sus víctimas.

Professor Le Blanc Gives Jack a Violin Lesson followed by The Corridor of Doom with Borris Karloff.

Jeff and Richard belatedly celebrate the birthday of Ol' Blood and Thunder, or Mr. Murder, Tod Slaughter. Slaughter has been called a British Boris Karloff. Indeed he made a series of films in the 1930s as similar to each other as Karloff's mad scientist movies were in the United States. However, with his roots in the theater, Slaughter was a unique master of Victorian melodrama, perhaps best known for playing Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street, both on stage and screen. He stops short of being a moustache-twirling villain, but never retreats from a maniacal laugh. Let your hosts be your guide for which of Slaughter's films are hits and which ones are misses. They may not be your cup of tea, but we encourage you to take a sip. Just don't drink too much in one sitting...

Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943), House of Frankenstein (1944), and House of Dracula (1945). Some say that the monster rally films marked the end of the Universal creature features, which could partially be true, but we feel it is for different reasons than the actual films themselves, and they still have a lot of merit to them. While the studio heads might not of cared too much about getting them made, those invovled did their best with what they had. One of the biggest highlights of these titles is the cast of actors in them, some making their last appearances. You get to see Karloff, Chaney Jr., Carradine, J. Carrol Naish, George Zucco, Lionel Atwill, Dwight Frye, and so many other regular faces that will bring a smile to your face when they pop up onscreen. While maybe running a little thin on ideas and decided to start combining monsters to hopefully bring back bigger box office returns, they still made films that we all still feel are entertaining and we feel are more than worth your time. Movies mentioned in this episode: Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948), Billy the Kid vs Dracula (1966), The Body Snatcher (1945), Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1942), Freddy vs Jason (2003), Ghost of Frankenstein (1942), House of Dracula (1945), House of Frankenstein (1944), The Invisible Man (1933), The Invisible Man Returns (1940), Man Made Monster (1941), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), The Mummy's Hand (1940), Nocturna (1979), Of Mice and Men (1939), She-Wolf of London (1946), Son of Dracula (1943), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Son of Kong (1933), The Wolf Man (1941)

  We're back to finish our discussion on THEGHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN. Joining us this week is Andrew Fabry of the Dead Letters movie podcast. Universal once again pairs two of its iconic performers in one film. This time a returning Bela Lugosi as Ygor is joined by Lon Chaney Jr as the Monster. Would the man better known for turning into a wolf be able to fill Karloff's boots?

This week we're back for the last of Karloff's turns as the Monster in the Universal Frankenstein movies. Mike, Brian and Jessica are joined by returning guest Nat Brehmar (author of PUPPET MASTER COMPLETE: A FRANCHISE HISTORY) for a candid talk about this often overlooked gem. Karloff himself would be overshadowed by Bela Lugosi playing Ygor, the hunchback friend that gave the Hungarian superstar his first juicy role in years after falling on difficult times. We talk about the Monster's self-rejection, the difficulty of living up to the family legacy, the gorgeous visuals of Son, and of course, its lasting imprint and influence on Young Frankenstein decades later. We also talk character actor Lionel Atwill, who turns up for the first of five roles in the series, and his, let's say, colorful off screen life.    Please check out Brian's writing on Frankenstein over on Manor Vellum including "Faces of Frankenstein: The Universal Years."    If you like what you're listening to make sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcast feeds.    Please take a moment to rate and review us on the Apple Podcast app, or rate us on the Spotify app. Reviews and five star ratings help new listeners find us every day, and we greatly appreciate the feedback and support.    Check out our website for easy access to our full catalog of shows, with hundreds of hours of free content.

In this bonus episode, I sit down with author Steve Case to discuss his newest book The Frankenstein Book of Prayer. This delightfully creative work addresses topics like prayer, identity and so much more!*Warning, this episode contains some strong language.*Check out The Frankenstein Book of Prayer and Steve's other works below: The Frankenstein Book of Prayer https://a.co/d/hvWSMEX Can a monster pray? The creature invented by Mary Shelley was not the shambling mumbling monster from the movies (apologies to Mr. Karloff). Shelley's creature learned to reason and speak with his ear to the cabin wall of a family who lived in the woods. He learned to read when he discovered a leather satchel full of books in that same forest. What if one of those books was a Bible?

Join them as they discuss when the Universal Horror era started, the Classic Era and it's transition to Atomic Horror, the Universal films as gateway horror, lost and found scenes, the two versions of Dracula, Bela's version of the Count, how the movies were inventing cinema, the respect deserved by Dwight Fry, putting yourself in the mindset of the era, the makeup of Jack Pierce, the performances by Karloff, renaming issues, early censorship & the Hays Code, pre-code heroines, if The Mummy is actually the most powerful monster, reasonable reactions to the Undead, and Yeeting Fritz.

This week, we welcome Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi back to the Universal Monster party in our Frankenstein Sequel Series! First up, SON OF FRANKENSTEIN must live up to the lofty expectations of the previous BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN and must do it without James Whale. Bela Lugosi shines as Ygor but does the rest of the movie live up? Next, we rank our favorite Halloween commercials during our Intermission Special! Finally, THE GHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN brings us Lon Chaney's first try in the neck bolts. Can he possibly live up to Karloff's iconic performance? Listen along and find out!

Join Mysterious Goings On host Alex Greenwood and film critic Lucas Hardwick as they pull back the curtain on the eerie delights of Halloween and horror cinema in their special limited series, Silver Screams. In this second episode, the guys are allergic to the idea of petting THE BLACK CAT. The guys dissect the striking 1934 horror film performances of Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff, contrasting Lugosi's theatrics with Karloff's subtlety. Beyond this, they analyze the eerie ambiance of the film, notably the Art Deco mansion erected atop a graveyard and the unnerving themes of Satanism. Listen in for more! Buy the movie here.

New Filmsuck episode! A Halloween celebration of Boris Karloff in two of his pre-Code films: THE OLD DARK HOUSE and THE BLACK CAT! He's best known for FRANKENSTEIN, but Karloff gave so many great performances, it's a good time to appreciate his range. Many of his films are widely available, but these two more obscure ones are part of the current Criterion Channel "Per-Code Horror" series.

This is the 1st (of 3) in our series of HALLOWEEN / HORROR podcasts for the month of October Today we talk with SARA KARLOFF about her wonderful father and legendary actor BORIS KARLOFF who starred in over 160 films & tv shows.   We find out what Boris Karloff was really like! We also talk about the chiller theatre convention (in NJ), the website (karloff.com) and we even ask Sara some music questions. ************** ABOUT SARA: Sara Karloff was born on her father's 51st birthday, November 23, 1938. Boris Karloff was filming Son of Frankenstein at the time. Sara jokes that she was “his most expensive birthday present ever.”   Ms. Karloff is widowed, has 2 grown sons and 3 grandchildren. She has lived in Rancho Mirage, CA since 1981. In 1993, following the death of her step-mother, Evelyn Karloff, Sara assumed the responsibility for the persona and licensing rights relating to her famous father and formed Karloff Enterprises. The company's goal is to maintain a standard of excellence and appropriateness when the name or likeness of her father is used. Through the licensing process she has been able to make merchandise and collectibles available to her father's fans. Sara met Ron Chaney (great-grandson of Lon Chaney Sr. and grandson of Lon Chaney Jr.) and Bela Lugosi Jr. (son of Bela Lugosi) for the first time in 1993 at a Famous Monsters of Filmland convention. As a result of that meeting a very special alliance was formed. Although initiated by Ron Chaney, Ms. Karloff spear-headed a three-year effort to have their respective famous relatives immortalized in a series of commemorative United States Postage Stamps. Petitions were circulated all over the country, and with the help of the Screen Actors Guild, the media, innumerable genre magazines, and thousands of fans worldwide, more than 17,000 signatures were collected in support of this project. It was the legions of fans who made this effort a reality. Sara continues to attend conventions around the world speaking about her iconic father and his remarkable legacy. Her favorite audiences are students whose questions reinforce her belief that these classic films are multi-generational in their appeal and their continued popularity is thanks to the wonderful fans!   Be sure to visit KARLOFF.com for some wonderful items and information on Boris Karloff. ************* KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site), Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.     Visit our YouTube Channel where you can see a couple video segments from each of our interviews.  Just search "know good music".
