As a young kid, he originally wanted to be a novelist. A audition for a high school production of Bye Bye Birdie landed him the lead role of Conrad, which blasted open the doors for him in the acting world. He ended up going to University of Michigan when they were first beginning to make a name for themselves as one of the best places to learn the craft, and then found his way easily onto the Broadway stage. He ended up shifting focus about 8 years ago to directing, where he found what he describes as his new passion for the stage. A quick call from an old friend led him to step in and perform as Clark Griswold in The Griswolds' Broadway Vacation brought him back to the stage, originating the role in the world premiere at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle, Washington, alongside Kate Rockwell. Hunter is an actor, director, writer and librettist with Broadway acting credits including Little Shop of Horrors (which earned him a Tony Award nomination), Urinetown, The Producers, Footloose, Les Miserables and Grease. He was named 2018's director of the year by the Wall Street Journal for his productions of 42nd Street at the Bucks County Playhouse, and The Drowsy Chaperone at the Goodspeed Opera House, recently directed the critically acclaimed The Other Josh Cohen off Broadway here in NYC, is the Artistic Director for the Redhouse Arts Center in Syracuse, NY, and as we speak is originating the role of Clark Griswold in the Griswolds' Broadway Vacation.

In this week's episode we are taking a look at the 1986 version of Little Shop of Horrors starring Rick Moranis & Steve Martin. We discuss our seperate relationships with this movie including Simon's completely normal, not at all weird fear of Audrey II. Is this movie a horror film? We take a look and discuss some of the movie's darker themes and moments. We talk about the film's iconic songs, how they have stood the test of time and pick our favourites. The cast and characters get assessed. Are we really just rooting for an alien plant this whole time? We look at the different versions of the film, stage show, alternate endings and erm…the animated series, as well as discussing the now cancelled proposed remake. All of this and lots more weird and wonderful stuff in this week's fun filled chaotic episode.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Masters of Horror and Suspense Peter Straub (1993-2022), in conversation with Richard Wolinsky and Richard A. Lupoff, recorded april 4, 1993 while on tour for his novel, “The Throat,” third in a thematic trilogy that included “Koko” and “Mystery.” Peter Straub, who died on September 4th, 2022 at the age of 79, was a master of horror and supernatural fiction whose work erased any distinction between genre and the literary world. Among his best known novels were Ghost Story, Shadowland, Floating Dragon, The Hellfire Club, and his collaboration with Stephen King, The Talisman.   He was also a poet and short fiction author. Three years after the interview, Peter Straub's novel The Hellfire Club was published to great acclaim, followed in 2001, with Black House, a sequel to The Talisman, written with Stephen King, and four later novels, the last one, A Dark Matter, published in 2010. A third book in The Talisman series was announced, but never written. A television series based on The Talisman for Netflix and created by The Duffer Brothers of Stranger Things fame, was announced in 2021 and is apparently still on track. Complete 39-minute interview. Digitized, remastered and edited by Richard Wolinsky in September, 2022. This interview has not seen the light of day in nearly thirty years.   Stephen King, in conversation with Richard Wolinsky and Lawrence Davidson, while on tour for The Dead Zone, recorded September 8, 1979 at Dark Carnival Bookstore in Berkeley. At the time of this recording, Stephen King had only written a handful of books — Carrie, Salem's Lot, The Shining and the Stand preceding The Dead Zone. There were also two novels under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, which was still a secret at the time. Since then, Stephen King has become a literary institution with over 300 credits for television and film adaptations at IMDb. He also has 64 novels, 11 collections of stories, and 5 non-fiction books. This interview was transcribed and can be found in both Feast of Fear: Conversations with Stephen King, edited by Tim Underwood and Chuck Miller, and Stephen King and Clive Barker: Macabre II, edited by James Van Hise.

Lady Frankenstein (1971), Erotic Rites of Frankenstsein (1973), Flesh for Frankenstein (1973). While Frankenstein is one of the oldest monsters in the genre, and has been adapted multiple times by a variety of creators, some closer to the original source than others, there are other filmmakers that go far enough away from the orignal novel that they're not even in same library! But it is always interesting to see where these creative filmmakers take that story, giving it their own twist, and putting it out there for teh world to see! Join us as we delve into 3 different variations on the Frankenstein theme, all that deal with sex, nudity, gore, and some of the strangest in Euro-Horror! Films mentioned in this episode: The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971), Attack of the Crab Monsters (1957), The Black Cat (1934), Blood for Dracula (1974), The Brain that Wouldn't Die (1962), Deep Red (1975), The Devil's Nightmare (1971), The Devil's Wedding Night (1973), The Diabolical Dr. Z (1966), Dracula, Prisoner of Frankenstein (1972), Erotic Rites of Frankenstein (1973), Flesh for Frankenstein (1973), Female Vampire (1973), Frankenstein (1910), Frankenstein (1931), Island of the Fishmen (1979), Lady Frankenstein (1971), Little Shop of Horrors (1960), The Undead (1957), Vampyros Lesbos (1971)

Marc Sheffler used to work as a stage actor for off-Broadway theater. His break into movies was when he was cast as teenage Junior Stillo in the low-budget Last House on the Left (1972). With that casting in the American exploitation horror film written, directed and edited by Wes Craven in his directorial debut. The film follows Mari Collingwood (Sandra Peabody), a hippie teenager who is abducted, raped, and tortured by a fugitive family on her seventeenth birthday. When they unwittingly seek refuge in her home, the killers face the vengeance of her parents. It is definitely not for the weak and the tag line for it was that audiences had to keep repeating. " It's only a movie, It's only a movie,"After Last House, Sheffler decided to pursue a career into television writing and production rather than acting. His credits include episodes of "Sister, Sister", "Harry and the Hendersons", "Who's the Boss", and "Charles in Charge" to name but a few. He's also been involved with all kinds of pilots, made for TV movies, and television specials, including the failed "The Little Shop of Horrors" pilot, "The Happy Days Reunion Show" and "The Best of the Hollywood Palace" specials. He also worked with Mel Blanc, the voice of Warner Bros. cartoons, as the writer of How Bugs Bunny Won The West (1978). So, if you are an old school horror fan sit back and enjoy this trip down memory lane with Marc Sheffler.Links to Crime & Entertainment Like us on Facebook -  https://www.facebook.com/crimeandente...Follow us on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/crimenenter...Listen on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4T67Bs5...Listen on Apple Music - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Listen on Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/show/crime-e...Listen on Google Podcast - https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0...Listen on Amazon Music - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9cd...#horrormoviepodcast #wescraven #podcast #exploitation #film #cinema

In Attack of the Monster Musical: A Cultural History of Little Shop of Horrors (Bloomsbury, 2022), Adam Abraham chronicles the history of this hit musical. Starting with the story of Roger Corman's 1960s movie that was shot in two days with a budget of $30,000, and largely forgotten, Abraham details how two decades later Little Shop of Horrors opened Off-Broadway and became a surprise success. Abraham relates the Faustian tale of Seymour and his man-eating plant transcended its humble origins to become a global phenomenon, launching a popular film adaptation and productions all around the world. This timely and authoritative book looks at the creation of the musical and its place in the contemporary musical theatre canon. Examining its afterlives and wider cultural context, the book asks the question why this unlikely combination of blood, annihilation, and catchy tunes has resonated with audiences from the 1980s to the present. At the core of this in-depth study is the collaboration between the show's creators, Howard Ashman and Alan Menken. Told through archival research and eyewitness accounts, this is the first book to make extensive use of Ashman's personal papers, offering a unique and inspiring study of one of musical theatre's greatest talents. Rebekah Buchanan is a Professor of English and Director of English Education at Western Illinois University. Her research focuses on feminism, activism, and literacy practices in youth culture, specifically through zines and music. Learn more about your ad choices.

I've been cooking along to show tunes since I first started cooking twenty years ago... so imagine how excited I am that the Broadway cookbook that I cowrote with Gideon Glick (star of Spring Awakening, Little Shop of Horrors, and a Tony nominee for To Kill a Mockingbird), Give My Swiss Chards to Broadway, is coming out this October 4th! Gideon actually received his copies in the mail a few days ago (mine are on their way) and so I had to invite him on the podcast to talk all about our cookbook, how we came up with the idea for it, how we wrote it, and which recipes and puns are our favorites. We also dive into Gideon's career: learning about his first professional acting gig at seventeen (costarring with Cynthia Nixon and Ethan Hawke), the fiasco of Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark, being part of the phenomenon that was Spring Awakening, and transitioning into film and television. It's a great talk and only 2% of it feels like QVC, I promise. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.

The importance of the movie poster is almost lost in this day and age. With the internet flooding social media with trailers, photos, and all sorts of advertisements, the poster art might get lost in the shuffle. But decades ago, it was the first thing used to promote an upcoming feature film. It had to reach out and grab hold of your eyes, telling your brain you need to see this film. Shortly after that, the poster collecting started. Why do we collect posters? What kinds are there? What is it about it that still holds a spell over movie goers? Join us and our special guest, Alan Tromp, as we try to answer all of those questions and more, as we discuss our own obsessions with movie posters, from one-sheets to British Quads to the French Grande size!

Some celebrities are born into financial safety. Others have to post sponcon. Sam chats with writer Kelsey McKinney about Sydney Sweeney's Instagram and what it means to have (or not have) family money in Hollywood. We also hold a celebrity liquor taste test with the staff of Vulture, which involves moderate to heavy drinking during a workday. And we hear about the culture that's haunting us: Singing "Somewhere That's Green" from Little Shop of Horrors at karaoke hits a little different when you're an adult living in New York.

Hello, kaiju lovers! I'm hard at work catching up on my editing/writing of the next few MIFV episodes, but in the meantime, I thought I'd share something in the podcast feed that'd normally be on MIFV MAX on Patreon. Any and all bloopers are saved and shared with Patrons (starting at the $10/month level), but since I had to cut some great discussions on Faustian deals from episode 67 (Little Shop of Horrors, 1986), I thought I'd publish it publicly so non-Patrons could taste a bit of what they can get for their support. Enjoy hearing me banter and flub with Michael Hamilton, Daniel DiManna, and Damon Noyes! We'd like to give a shout-out to our MIFV MAX patrons Travis Alexander; Danny DiManna (author/creator of the Godzilla Novelization Project); Eli Harris (elizilla13); Chris Cooke (host of One Cross Radio); Bex from Redeemed Otaku; Damon Noyes, The Cel Cast, TofuFury, Eric Anderson of Nerd Chapel, and Ted Williams!

Dylan and Connor are joined by Tony Award winner Lena Hall (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Little Shop of Horrors). Mere hours after Connor's trip to Chromatica (MetLife Stadium), the twins meet Lena Hall for some DRAMA.

This week Joshua and Drusilla watch an underseen 70's bop, Messiah of Evil. From Wikipedia: "Messiah of Evil (later also shown under the title Dead People) is a 1973 American supernatural horror film co-written, co-produced, and co-directed by Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz, and starring Marianna Hill, Michael Greer, Anitra Ford, Royal Dano, and Elisha Cook Jr. Its plot follows a woman who travels to a remote coastal town in California to find her missing artist father; upon arrival, she finds herself in the midst of a series of bizarre incidents."But first! A lengthy debate over takeout, hot sauce, and pickles, which Josh edits out! But Drusilla watched an Amicus film, The Beast Must Die. This ties nicely into Josh's movie, Creepshow, and the duo debates about which story should have been cut.  Other movies discussed: Dead of Night, the 70's Tales from the Crypt, Creepshow 2, The Ruins, the 70s Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Little Shop of Horrors. Next week: The Wailing with a very special guest! Website: http://www.bloodhauspod.com  Twitter: https://twitter.com/BloodhausPod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Email: bloodhauspod@gmail.com  Drusilla's art: https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/ Drusilla's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hydesister/ Drusilla's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/drew_phillips/  Joshua's website: https://www.joshuaconkel.com/ Joshua's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JoshuaConkel  Joshua's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/ Joshua's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/joshuaconkel/ 

This is the most ridiculous concept to an episode we researched of all time. Easily. The first part of the lore comes to us from Bantu Folklore, and that is the Devouring Gourd. You read that right. The Devouring Gourd is a story that seems to have inspired Little Shop of Horrors. It is a gourd that grew to immense proportions, and ate people until it came into combat with an arrow wielding child. Since that bit of lore is a bit short, you get a two part episode! The second piece of our story is that of a humanoid figure that resembles a walking corn stalk. Did we mention this corn stalk could be extra terrestrial, and is vampiric?

This week on No Script, Jackson and Jacob double up on musicals. Last week was a fruitful discussion of a musical from the early 80s..... and this week is more of the same!

Atlanta, Georgia's own The Georgia Satellites released their debut and self-titled album in 1986.  Dan Baird was their primary songwriter and lead vocalist on most songs.  Guitarist Rick Richards, bassist Rick Price, and dummer Mauro Magellan complete the band.  Originally formed as Keith and the Satellites in 1980, the band saw a number of personnel changes and a name change to The Georgia Satellites soon thereafter.  They honed their craft playing at a Buckhead bar called Hedgens on Monday nights.The Georgia Satellites signed with Elektra Records in 1986 and released this debut album to significant commercial success.  The single "Keep Your Hands To Yourself" saw significant airplay on MTV, and went to number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, denied the number 1 spot by Bon Jovi's "Livin' On a Prayer."  The band featured a southern rock sound with a boogie slant, and this debut would be certified Platinum by the RIAA.The Georgia Satellites would produce two albums of original material and a third with both new and re-released tracks after this debut, but would not see the popularity return to the level of this first album.  Dan Baird left the band in 1990 and the band went on hiatus for a few years, but the remaining members would return to touring by 1993 and still perform today.Wayne brings us this classic of southern rock. Railroad SteelThis track is the third single from the album.  It did not chart on the Billboard Hot 100 but made it to number 34 on the Billboard Rock Charts.  The lyrics are about a guy who is cold, but whose heart can be melted by a particular woman.Keep Your Hands To Yourself"She said, 'Don't hand me no lines, and keep your hands to yourself!'"  This is the big hit from the album, reaching number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.  It is about a woman that will not give in to a guys pleading until they get married.  "You see, I wanted her real bad and I was about to give in.  Oh, that's when she started talking about true love, started talking about sin."Battleship ChainsThough it didn't make the top 40, this was an entry into the Billboard Hot 100 at number 86.  It also features guitarist Rick Richards on lead vocals. This song was written by Terry Anderson and recorded by his band The Woods out of North Carolina.  The Georgia Satellites heard the band and recorded their own version.Red LightThis is a deep cut, and is a song about a woman who is angry at her partner.  "Got Van Halen wailin' on the stereo  eight track.  Watch out baby that's what I said.  There's a red light, road block, bridge out ahead." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Dentist! by Steve Martin (from the motion picture “Little Shop of Horrors”)This movie based on the musical of the same name starred Rick Moranis and a psychotic plant living off human blood.  Steve Martin has a cameo as a sadistic dentist. STAFF PICKS:Ship of Fools by World PartyRob starts off our staff picks with a British group which was basically a solo project for lead man Karl Wallinger.  While his band was a one-hit wonder, Wallinger collaborated with other artists like Sinead O'Connor and Robbie Williams, and was the musical director for the films “Clueless” and “Reality Bites.”  The concept of the lyrics is that there will be a price to pay from the way you are living today.  The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby and the RangeBruce's staff pick is a piano driven soft rock song about civil rights and not getting complacent.  It hit number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.   "That's just the way it is - ah, but don't you believe them."Everybody Have Fun Tonight by Wang ChungBrian brings us a song originally conceived as a ballad, but adapted to a faster pace and dance orientation by producer Peter Wolf.  The self-referential verb "Wang Chung" is a nonsensical but catchy phrase.(I am) Superman by R.E.M.Wayne's staff pick is actually a cover song originally recorded by a band called The Clique.  Bassist Mike Mills sings lead on this song because Michael Stipe wasn't very enthusiastic about it.  When Stipe sings backup vocals in live performances, he holds his arms up and out as if he is Superman flying. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Walter's Theme by R.E.M.We wrap up this week's podcast with an instrumental track off R.E.M's album "Dead Letter Office."

Are Your Patients Getting Comfortably Numb? Episode #443 with Dr. Alan Budenz How sure are you that your patients are comfortably numb? Are you 100% sure? Do you just hope they are? There's a better way to know than just guessing! And to help you know with 99.9% certainty, Kirk Behrendt brings in Dr. Alan Budenz to share some techniques you can start using today. Numbing is the first step to high-quality dentistry! To learn how to give patients the most comfortable experience, listen to Episode 443 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Learn as many anesthesia techniques as you possibly can. Always ask patients about their history with anesthesia. Tell patients what you're doing. Don't surprise them! Know the best ways to assess anesthesia. Even experts will miss from time to time. Quotes: “Getting your patients comfortably numb is incredibly important. You can't do good-quality dental work if the patient is feeling pain and fighting you, so you've got to have good control.” (2:28—2:40) “I want to deliver local anesthesia as efficiently as possible, because I've never had a patient beg me to give them more shots. I always think of the movie, Little Shop of Horrors, with Steve Martin and Bill Murray, and Bill Murray's like, ‘Oh, yeah, doc. Hurt me!' It's like, no, no, no, no, no. That's not real people. So, we're not going there. I want to be really efficient with local anesthesia. And in giving the shot, inherently — you don't want to cause the patient pain giving the shot either.” (2:43—3:15) “Although the injectable needles are still, by far and away, the most reliable, we're still looking for better ways, easier ways, more comfortable ways to deliver the anesthetic. And that's encouraging.” (9:33—9:46) “I think we're still going to be using needles for a good while. But I think that some of these patch delivery techniques, like the iontophoresis, some of the things that have been developed more for medicine and trying to adapt them for dentistry. Part of the problem with dentistry is that versus putting a patch on the skin for anesthesia like they do in medicine, we're dealing with a very moist environment. So, a patch may not stick well onto the mucosa. We're usually trying to get deeper nerves. Like, the inferior alveolar nerve is rather deep through the tissue. It's hard to direct the anesthetic that deep from a patch. So, I think these things may have promise, but I think it's going to take quite a while to get developed.” (10:05—10:59) “When I'm delivering local anesthesia to the patient, before I do it, I tell them what I'm going to do.” (15:39—15:47) “As I go along, I'm walking through and I'm talking to the patient as I'm [administering the anesthesia]. I'm telling them what to expect, what they're going to feel. And so, for example, if I'm going to shake the cheek, I tell them, ‘I'm going to shake the cheek,' rather than staying stoic and silent, and then I'm suddenly doing something, the patient is startled, ‘What? Why is this guy shaking my cheek?' or these kinds of things. I want to avoid surprises.” (16:38—17:05) “I'm trying to tell the patient what I'm doing and what to anticipate in terms of feeling and so forth. But I know that sometimes patients totally tune me out, and all they're hearing is, ‘Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,' in a calm, quiet voice. But you know what? If that's hypnotic to them, that's fine too. It still works to relax them and remove some of that anxiety. But the bottom line is that as I'm doing everything, I'm telling them what I'm doing to make this more comfortable for them. I'm telling them what I do to make this a better experience for them. That, to me, is extremely important.” (17:09—17:53) “How do we normally assess anesthesia? We ask the patient, ‘Do you feel numb?' ‘Uh, yeah. My lip feels kind of numb.' So, you pick up an explorer and you poke around. Right? Well, hopefully, they don't feel that. And then, you pick up your drill or your curette, whatever,
