Gilbert and Frank celebrate the lives and careers of horror icons Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff  with the help of their devoted offspring, Bela Lugosi Jr. and Sara Karloff. First up, the “Son of Dracula” recalls visiting the set of “Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein” as a child and points out what the movie “Ed Wood” got wrong about his famous dad. Then, author and historian Sara Karloff looks back on her father's most indelible roles, from The Frankenstein Monster to The Mummy to The Grinch—and tells us why her dad referred to Halloween as his “busy season." PLUS: Karloff dances on “The Red Skelton Show”! Lugosi passes up the role of a lifetime! Sara meets the “Son of Gilbert”! And Bela Jr. takes a stand for The Three Stooges! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Link to Audio version “The Bat” is a short horror monologue recorded by Bela Lugosi, built around his spoken persona rather than a conventional plot. In it he addresses the listener directly and describes the bat as a creature of night and hush, a watcher at windows and eaves, half in the natural world and half in something older and less defined. The piece is more mood than story: a sequence of images about darkness, wings, and unease, letting pauses and emphases do most of the work.  After arriving in the United States as a stateless immigrant in 1920, Lugosi struggled with the English language, often memorising his lines phonetically. His big break came in 1927 when he was cast as the lead in the Broadway production of Dracula. His performance was so magnetic that Universal Pictures cast him in the 1931 film adaptation. Lugosi's portrayal—characterised by his slow, melodic Hungarian accent, intense gaze, and formal evening wear—transformed the vampire from a finished, rat-like monster into a seductive, sophisticated villain. This performance became the template for every vampire depiction that followed. While Dracula made him a superstar, it also trapped him. Lugosi found it nearly impossible to land roles outside of the horror genre. The Rivalry: He was frequently paired with Boris Karloff (who played Frankenstein's monster), though Karloff often received higher billing and better pay, which reportedly frustrated Lugosi. The Roles: He gave notable performances in White Zombie (1932), The Black Cat (1934), and as the broken-necked Ygor in Son of Frankenstein (1939). Health Struggles: Chronic sciatica led to a severe dependency on painkillers. As his health declined and his "classic" style of horror fell out of fashion, he found himself relegated to low-budget "B-movies." In the 1950s, Lugosi experienced a strange career coda through his friendship with cult director Ed Wood. He appeared in films now famous for being "so bad they're good," such as Glen or Glenda and Plan 9 from Outer Space (released posthumously). Lugosi passed away in 1956 at the age of 73. In a final tribute to the role that defined him, he was buried in his full Dracula cape at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, California. Despite his difficult later years, he remains one of the most recognisable and influential icons in cinema history.

David Annandale and I walk back down Poverty Row just after the attack on Pearl Harbor to watch one of the most confusing and strange attempts at wartime propaganda a low budget studio could produce. BLACK DRAGONS (1942) has Bela Lugosi as a mysterious, menacing man who seems to be on a mission of revenge. But what does he have to do with the corpses that keep popping up on the steps of the Japanese embassy in Washington? Will FBI agent Clayton Moore be able to figure things out or will he spend his time chasing Joan Barclay around her uncle/father's house until all the characters are dead? And how does David find a way to link Christopher Nolan and Bela Lugosi? Listen and learn! BLACK DRAGONS is probably the oddest of the nine films Lugosi made for Poverty Row film producers and certainly the one with the most unintentionally funny dialog. Just as it was about to go into production the decision was made to shoehorn in topical plot elements ripped from the headlines. This means that the original reason behind events in the script has been lost leaving bits of their probable supernatural nature flapping around in the film. This is the only explanation I can imagine for the never addressed ability of Lugosi's Monsieur Colomb to seemingly teleport in and out of moving taxicabs! But David has an interesting take on the film as a bizarre treatise on the subject of ‘acting' both onscreen and within the structure of the story. His idea is a bold way to look at the picture as a whole and certainly makes it more entertaining as you try to figure out what the hell is happening at any point in the film's hourlong running time. Rarely has such a barely planned collection of quirks and gaffs been so mesmerizing! If you have any comments about this movie or any other film we've covered on the show thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. Thank you for listening and we'll be back soon.

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

Velcome to the second part of our Dracula show. In part one we looked at the tortious route from book to screen.  Now we examine the films that resulted from all that work. . The English language Dracula starring Bela Lugosi. Here we talk about: - Lugosi's performance. - The odd journey to the UK (and why it looks speeded up) - Dwight Frye's performance as Renfield - The censorship cuts  - The director controversy - And much more  Then to the Spanish language version which is 30 minutes longer.  But is it better? We discuss in detail. Finally, we talk about the 1970's revival of the original play and how that led to the Frank Langella version in 1979. So, if you are a fan of Dracula or indeed vampires, then this show is for you.   Enjoy and have a very happy Halloween.

Double Edgar Allan Poe! The Universal Classics deep dive continues with two very loose Poe adaptations: The Black Cat (1934) and The Raven (1935) both starring Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff. From wiki: “The Black Cat is a 1934 American pre-Code horror film directed by Edgar G. Ulmer and starring Boris Karloff and Béla Lugosi. It was Universal Pictures' biggest box office hit of the year, and was the first of eight films (six of which were produced by Universal) to feature both Karloff and Lugosi. In 1941, Lugosi appeared in a comedy horror mystery film with the same title, which was also named after and ostensibly "suggested by" Edgar Allan Poe's 1843 short story.”The Raven is a 1935 American horror film directed by Louis Friedlander (who started to be credited as Lew Landers the following year) and starring Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. Billed as having been "suggested by" Edgar Allan Poe's 1845 poem of the same title, excerpts of which are quoted at a few points in the film, it was adapted from an original screenplay by David Boehm. Lugosi stars as a neurosurgeon obsessed with Poe who has a torture chamber in his basement, and Karloff plays an escaped murderer on the run from the police who Lugosi manipulates into doing his dirty work.Also discussed: ™, gay Halloween, Bubble Bath (1980), Frankenstein (2025), deaf crocodile, Soviet fantasy films, Knives Out,  NEXT WEEK: Frankenstein (1931) and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/https://letterboxd.com/bloodhaus/Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/https://www.instagram.com/sister__hyde/Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

This week the hosts begin a month of classic Universal monster movies beginning with Dracula (1931). From wiki: "Dracula is a 1931 American pre-Code vampire film directed and co-produced by Tod Browning from a screenplay written by Garrett Fort and starring Bela Lugosi in the title role. It is based on the stage play Dracula by Hamilton Deane and John L. Balderston, which in turn is adapted from the 1897 novel Dracula by Bram Stoker.[3] Lugosi portrays Count Dracula, a vampire who emigrates from Transylvania to England and preys upon the blood of living victims, including a young man's fiancée."Also discussed: spiders, Sparks, transcendental meditation, One Battle After Another, Thomas Pynchon, Meiko Kaji films, and more.  NEXT WEEK: The Old Dark House (1932) Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/https://letterboxd.com/bloodhaus/Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/‪@sisterhyde.bsky.socialJoshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

*God, if I can somehow get Clancy Brown to introduce this show, it'd be beautiful but now, you'll just have to imagine his deep, rich voice* DAY 2! GIVE IT UP FOR DAY 2, EVERYONE!31 Days of Halloween continues down the Universal Monsters track. Not even a year after DRACULA's release, wunderkind producer Carl Laemmle Jr. comes back swinging with FRANKENSTEIN, a James Whale-directed adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel.Bela Lugosi is interested in returning. Junior is stoked! Lugosi reads the script and waitaminute, this is for the monster; I wanted to be Henry Frankenstein, what the fuck?Enter Boris Karloff, a veteran English stage actor with 80 credits to his name before taking on the role of the lumbering Creature.Borne of the crude surgery of dead parts and a good ol' blast of lightning, this Creature is the product of Frankenstein's (Colin Clive) defiance against God, the natural order, showers (Look in my eyes and truthfully deny it, I dare you. Henry be stinky.) and sanity.This movie established the benchmark for many who would follow. Any mad scientist crafts their lab in response to the bubbling breakers and sparkling electronics of Whale's movie. The locked-knee hobbling accentuated by grunts and baritone moans for any monstrous brute comes from Karloff's performance. Even cartoons joke about angry mobs with torches and pitchforks, aping this movie's ending. The influence reaches further than one can imagine.And while I dock points for the movie meandering about Henry's wedding (The dude just created life and you people wanna think about bouquets?) and a lack of time developing the Creature's intelligence, as does the novel, that influence makes this a must-watch. For this Universal Monsters run, it's important to see where we've been to better chart where horror can go. ---Follow, rate and review THE MOVIES wherever you listen to podcasts!Follow THE MOVIES on Instagram, Bluesky & Letterboxd

We're back to our regular, boring, non-Twilight programming. Boo. But the big take-away is that it's 10:00 PM - do you know where your corpses are?Host segments: toot/Tud/tut-triple threat; just want people to be silky-smooth; Elizabeth Bathory buzzkills; you juiced her, you bought her; are coffins built for comfort?; these glands are drastically under-used; the Hays code and Hirohito did this.

WELCOME BACK GENTLE LISTENERS. Hulk Hogan died and we had to talk about it. We take a look at some of his worst matches, a couple of his truly baffling movies, and whatever else comes to mind. Are we all the way back where we'll be dropping shows regularly? Maybe, WHO KNOWS?

This week on *The Rotten Horror Picture Show*, Clay and Amanda are doing nothing to help my steadily worsening vampire confusion by taking a big ol' bite out of Werner Herzog's 1979 classic Nosferatu the Vampyre, starring Klaus Kinski as maybe the creepiest Dracula/Nosferatu/Count Orlok hybrid ever filmed. It's moody, it's beautiful, and it's got rats. So many rats. Okay. Look. I'm just gonna say it: I think we've officially hit critical mass on Nosferatus and Draculas. I mean, how many pasty bald guys with capes and long fingernails named “Count Something” does the world *need*? First there was the original *Nosferatu*, then Lugosi's *Dracula*, then Lee's *Dracula*, then the *Nosferatu* remake, then Dracula in space, Dracula in love, Dracula with a podcast probably—I don't know anymore. The point is, I'm starting to suspect these aren't *characters* in movies. I think they might be *real*, and I think they're multiplying. Every time I look around, there's another Nosferatu lurking in a dark corner, hissing at a cat. I'm tired. I'm confused. And I'm scared of capes now.Join Clay and Amanda as they dive into Herzog's eerie homage to Murnau's 1922 silent classic and debate just how many spooky bald vampires is too many. Is Kinski's Count Dracula really just Orlok with a stage name? Does it matter when he's this unsettling? Who gave him permission to move like *that*?One thing's for sure: if another Nosferatu pops up, I'm going into hiding. Probably somewhere with garlic. Maybe in a mall. Wait, no—*not* a mall. We've been over that.Anyway, listen in… while you still can.And be sure to hit up patreon.com/thepenskyfile to hear all the coverage of remakes and reboots this year!

In this episode, we're taking a journey back to the eerie roots of horror cinema by exploring the thrilling world of Pre-Code horror films of the 1930s. Joining us is Leslie, a dedicated podcast host, photographer, and true horror fanatic, ready to share insights into some of the most iconic films that defined this genre before Hollywood's Production Code put restrictions on content. These pre-code films were daring, experimental, and unafraid to push boundaries, introducing audiences to terrifying monsters, dark themes, and twisted characters that would shape horror for generations. We begin by delving into the legendary classic Dracula (1931), where Bela Lugosi's portrayal of the Transylvanian vampire set the standard for cinematic horror. Leslie sheds light on how Dracula brought an air of sophistication and dread to horror, with its haunting atmosphere and Lugosi's unforgettable performance, making it a cultural icon and solidifying the vampire as one of horror's most enduring creatures. Next, we turn to Bride of Frankenstein (1935), James Whale's masterful sequel to the original Frankenstein, which brought a new level of emotion and complexity to the genre. Leslie discusses the film's exploration of loneliness and creation, its stunning visual style, and Elsa Lanchester's portrayal of the iconic Bride, who became a symbol of both beauty and horror. The Bride's brief yet powerful presence left a lasting impact on horror cinema and expanded the scope of what horror characters could represent. We also take a closer look at Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931), with Fredric March's Academy Award-winning performance showcasing the duality of human nature. This adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's story was one of the first to depict the terrifying transformation of a man into a monster, both physically and psychologically. Leslie shares thoughts on how the film's groundbreaking special effects and dark exploration of identity and morality pushed the boundaries of horror and captivated audiences with its chilling take on inner darkness. For honorable mentions, we discuss other unforgettable films from the era, such as King Kong (1933), a film that combined adventure with horror, captivating audiences with its impressive visual effects and tragic monster. The Black Cat (1934), starring horror legends Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff, offered a disturbing tale of revenge and occult themes. The Invisible Man (1933) showcased Claude Rains' brilliant performance as the unseen terror, while Island of Lost Souls (1932) delved into themes of science gone wrong with its haunting depiction of genetic experimentation. In closing, Leslie reflects on how these films from the 1930s laid the groundwork for the horror genre, challenging societal norms and fearlessly exploring themes of the monstrous and the unknown. The legacy of these pre-code films lives on, inspiring countless filmmakers and horror fans today, as we continue to revisit these dark classics that dared to push the limits of cinema in a way that still resonates nearly a century later.

Episode 378 - Universally Hammered: Dracula Everyone knows the greatest heavyweight matchups of all time. Ali v. Frazier, Tyson v. Holyfield, Marciano v. Walcott. But for us, one matchup stands above the rest. Dracula v. Dracula, Lugosi v. Lee. A quick look at the stats shows no obvious favorite. Lugosi has the stamina and endurance, as well as one of the meanest mugs in the game. Lee has the obvious height and reach advantage. Couple that with his stunning technicolor, and he becomes a pretty formidable foe. But then again, Lugosi can turn into a f***ing bat, so there's no telling where this match could go, but this week we intend to find out.

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. These two titans of the horror film genre gave us endless hours of chills and thrills in their portrayal of such iconic movie monsters as Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, and The Mummy. This week's Halloween episode pays tribute to the films and lives of these two incredible actors.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Karloff: The Life of Boris Karloff (1972), by Peter Underwood; The Films of Boris Karloff (1974), by Richard Bojarski; Lugosi: The Forgotten King (1986), Documentary; Boris Karloff: More Than a Monster (2011), by Stephen Jacobs; No Traveler Returns: The Lost Years of Bela Lugosi (2916), by Gary D.

Ha azt hallod: vámpír, ki jut eszedbe először? Fogadjunk, hogy Drakula!  Valószínűleg azt is tudod, hogy ki alakította őt az első róla szóló hangosfilmben: Lugosi Béla! És azt tudod, hogy a világhírű magyar színész milyen utat járt be Magyarországtól Hollywoodig? Vendégünk Gyurkovics Tamás, aki Akcentus címmel írt könyvet Lugosi Béláról. Vele beszélgettünk a színész életéről: a Tanácsköztársaságban vállalt szerepéről, az emigrációjáról, karrierje mérföldköveiről, a Drakula-film forgatásáról, drogfüggőségéről és Lugosi halhatatlan emlékezetéről.  - Ha szeretnél havi extra tartalmakat kapni tőlünk, akkor gyere a Patreon oldalunkra és válaszd ki a neked megfelelő támogatói szintet. https://www.patreon.com/hihetetlentortenelem Kiemelt Patreon támogatóink: Busa-Fekete Róbert, Lovas Gabriella, Rója Gergő Elérhetőségek: E-mail cím: hihetetlentori@gmail.com Facebook oldalunk linkje Spotify linkünk .

El terror pre-código Hays es una de las eras que más me interesan de la historia del género. En esta magnífica adaptación de La isla del Doctor Moreau tenemos a un Charles Laughton inmenso como el malicioso doctor. Y a Lugosi, el pobre, ganado el salario mínimo para sobrevivir.

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.

My friend Chris Herzog joins me to talk about a serial from 1934 – THE RETURN OF CHANDU! Chris hasn't been on the show since we discussed the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films back in episode #15. It was Bela Lugosi's starring role that enticed him to come back for a conversation about this fantasy adventure in which the legendary horror actor plays the heroic lead! That's right - Lugosi is the hero in this twelve-part serial. Will wonders never cease?   We discuss the radio show Chandu the Magician, from which this was adapted and the 1932 film that preceded this production in which Lugosi played the villain, Roxor. Neither of us can think of another sequel that recasts the hero to be played by the actor who portrayed the bad guy in the original, but that's what happened with Chandu. We talk about the director's work in Hollywood and his other serials as well as his work with the great William Whitney. We point out the reused sets from KING KONG and marvel at the giant cat statue in the Lemurian temple set. Cool stuff! And we lament that Chandu's family seems to have been put on this earth to serve as eternal victims in need of rescuing. You think he could have let one of them die just to get the others to stay home next time!   If you are a Bela Lugosi fan or a fan of his various serials thebloodypit@gmail is the place to let that flag fly. And if you enjoy the show let us know. Thanks for listening. 

GGACP marks the 45th anniversary of the 1979 release of Nicholas Meyer's terrific sci-fi- adventure film, "Time After Time" by revisiting this mini-ep from 2015. In this episode: Charles Laughton chases skirts, Gilbert tears down "Regarding Henry," Malcolm McDowell meets his future wife and the boys pay tribute to a lesser-known Lugosi classic. PLUS: "Jack the Stripper"! "The Night of the Hunter"! The brilliance of David Warner! And Marlon Brando inspires Mike Myers! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jim & Livio know NOTHING about insurance, and neither do the customers of Dr. Orloff. The Human Monster is a 1939 British horror film starring Bela Lugosi (originally titled the Dark Eyes Of London). One of Lugosi's more popular 'poverty row' films, he plays a dual role of Dr. Orloff and the meek and blind Professor Dearborn. Jim & Livio discuss Lugosi's almost-wartime trip across the pond, the production, the 'H' code the film received from censors, and much more!

This week, we turn our attention to Bela Lugosi and the 1930s hit, White Zombie. Set in Haiti, this one was the first zombie film ever committed to celluloid, featuring the incredible Hungarian actor, Lugosi, in an iconic role.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Infra-Bayesian haggling, published by hannagabor on May 20, 2024 on The AI Alignment Forum. Preface I wrote this post during my scholarship at MATS. My goal is to describe a research direction of the learning theoretic agenda (LTA). Namely, a natural infra-Bayesian learning algorithm proposal that arguably leads to Pareto-optimal solutions in repeated games. The idea originates from Vanessa, I'm expanding a draft of her into a more accessible description. The expected audience are people who are interested in ongoing work on LTA. It is especially suitable for people who are looking for a research direction to pursue in this area. Introduction There has been much work on the theory of agents who cooperate in the Prisoner's dilemma and other situations. Some call this behavior superrationality . For example, functional decision theory (FDT) is a decision theory that prescribes such behavior. The strongest results so far are those coming from "modal combat", e.g. Critch. However, these results are of very limited scope: among other issues, they describe agents crafted for specific games, rather than general reasoners that produce superrational behavior in a "naturalized" manner (i.e. as a special case of the general rules of reasoning.) At the same time, understanding multi-agent learning theory is another major open problem. Attempts to prove convergence to game-theoretic solution concepts (a much weaker goal than superrationality) in a learning-theoretic setting are impeded by the so-called grain-of-truth problem (originally observed by Kalai and Lehrer, its importance was emphasized by Hutter). An agent can learn to predict the environment via Bayesian learning only if it assigns non-zero prior probability to that environment, i.e. its prior contains a grain of truth. What's the grain-of-truth problem? Suppose Alice's environment contains another agent, Bob. If Alice is a Bayesian agent, she can learn to predict Bob's behavior only if her prior assigns a positive probability to Bob's behavior. (That is, Alice's prior contains a grain of truth.) If Bob has the same complexity level as Alice, then Alice is not able to represent all possible environments. Thus, in general, Alice's prior doesn't contain a grain of truth. A potential solution based on "reflective oracles" was proposed by Leike, Taylor and Fallenstein. However it involves arbitrarily choosing a fixed point out of an enormous space of possibilities, and requires that all agents involved choose the same fixed point. Approaches to multi-agent learning in the mainstream literature (see e.g. Cesa-Bianchi and Lugosi) also suffer from restrictive assumptions and are not naturalized. Infra-Bayesianism (IB) was originally motivated by the problem of non-realizability, of which the multi-agent grain-of-truth problem is a special case. Moreover, it converges to FDT-optimal behavior in most Newcombian problems. Therefore, it seems natural to expect IB agents to have strong multi-agent guarantees as well, hopefully even superrationality. In this article, we will argue that an infra-Bayesian agent playing a repeated game displays a behavior dubbed "infra-Bayesian haggling". For two-player games, this typically (but, strictly speaking, not always) leads to Pareto-efficient outcome. The latter can be a viewed as a form of superrationality. Currently, we only have an informal sketch, and even that in a toy model with no stochastic hypotheses. However, it seems plausible that it can be extended to a fairly general setting. Certainly it allows for asymmetric agents with different priors and doesn't have any strong mutual compatibility condition. The biggest impediment to naturality is the requirement that the learning algorithm is of a particular type (namely, Upper Confidence Bound). However, we believe that it should be po...

For this week's Profile in Cinemania, Scrutinizer Zacharia plays us a cassette on Hollywood's King of Terror, Bela Lugosi, the man the world knew as "Dracula." Lugosi was a complex and tragic man who fought fascists in Hungary and Weimar Germany; and after achieving fame in America, used his public platform to do some real good in the world while fighting his own private battles. Aside from creating the stereotype of the vampire we all know and love today, he was also responsible for organizing the world's first film actor's union in his native Hungary, and later, helped found the Screen Actors Guild.   Written by Zacharia Berks and Ethan Ireland Performed by Zacharia Berks Caricature Art by Andy Slack Comics Music by Karl Casey at White Bat Audio Tracks used: "Cradle of Shadows," "Gothic," "The Disappearance," and "Last Light."

Tonight we're chatting with Bobby Lugosi– whose real name is Bobby Zier and whose TikTok channel “Lugosi Theater” (LucyDogYellow2024) has gotten over 2 million likes. He's won a special recognition Rondo award for introducing classic horror to a new generation. His TikTok also encourages others to embrace what they love. Bobby Lugosi plays Dracula at haunted houses and horror conventions and has been shown on Svengoolie three times– we talk about Lugosi, Dracula, and the power of intense interests.

We're baaaccckk! Jim and Livio make a spooky return and dive into a fun "Poverty Row" film - The Devil Bat. This is one of several low budget horror movies starring Bela Lugosi from the 40's. We go into Lugosi's impact in these roles, his broader impact in our pop culture, the shortcuts of the production and of course, the film itself. Enjoy just in time for Halloween - and be careful of the aftershave you put on!

What's up, dudes? It's a fun, light hearted episode today with special guests Anthony Caruso from ‘Tis the Podcast and CM Chuck from Just Another Friday Night! That's right! We're talking the General Mills monster cereals! Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces its history back to the 1860's. Introduced in March of 1971, Count Chocula is a chocolate loving vampire designed by George Karn. His cereal, as his name suggests, was made of delicious whole grain corn chocolate flavor frosted cereal and marshmallow bits. His Bela Lugosi-inspired voice was provided by Larry Kenney for the commercials. In the 1980's Count Chocula character was re-vamped (pun intended) with a more svelte physique, a slender nose, and added shading on his clothes. New boxes were introduced, even including a set where Lugosi's Dracula chased a terrified Count Chocula.Franken Berry followed soon after in October of ‘71, also a Karn design. He is a slightly rotund pink version of Frankenstein's creature with sweet strawberry cereal and marshmallows. Voiced by Bob McFadden, he was given a Boris Karloff-style voice.Boo Berry, the blueberry flavored cereal ghost mascot, was released in 1973. His Peter Lorre-tinged voice was provided by Christmas special voice acting legend Paul Frees. Boo Berry is a blue ghost with a red bow-tie and red and yellow hat.Rounding out the cast is Frute Brute, a werewolf introduced in ‘74 and retired in ‘82, and Fruity Yummy Mummy, released in ‘88 and retired in ‘92. Both are fruit flavored cereals. In ‘85 the cereal pieces became ghost shaped, and in ‘89 bat shaped marshmallows were introduced.Hanna-Barbera vibe? Check. Classic Universal Studios Monster pastiches? Uh huh. Loads and loads of sugar? Definitely!

Independent horror film ‘White Zombie', starring Bela Lugosi, premiered in New York City's Rivoli Theatre on July 28th, 1932. It marked the first time that zombies had featured in a Hollywood picture - albeit as the result of an evil voodoo master in Haiti rather than a condition passed on through bites, as in later zombie screenplays. Large portions of the film were shot on the Universal Studios lot, borrowing props and scenery from other horror films of the era, with an ultra-low budget of just $50,000. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Lugosi went from Hungarian Shakespeare star to Tinseltown villain; unpick the racism at the heart of the story; and consider why zombies have proven to be such a resilient horror movie staple….  Further Reading: • ‘Hollywood Flashback: Bela Lugosi Introduced the World to Zombies in 1932' (The Hollywood Reporter, 2021): https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/bela-lugosi-white-zombies-1234954832/ • ‘White Zombie - Anatomy of a Horror Film, By Gary D.
