    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/

    8. Later Films and the Importance of Sid Scott Eyman Charlie Chaplin versus America: When Art, Sex, and Politics Collided Chaplin's first European film, A King in New York (1957), suffered as he struggled with English union rules, highlighting his dependence on absolute creative autonomy. His final film, A Countess from Hong Kong (1967), was hampered by the casting of Marlon Brando, insisted upon by Universal. Brando proved mechanical and unsuited for the film's romantic rescue plot. Ultimately, Chaplin's half-brother, Sid, remained the indispensable cornerstone of his life, always ready to help or rescue him. 1936

We look at superhero costumes (including some odd ones like Web Woman), Krofft costumes (you could be a Sleestak, a Bugaloo, or even Dr. Shrinker), and lots more, including the infamous Fonzie "He-e-y!" costume. Also: The classic Universal monster movies! A brilliant new monster t-shirt from cartoonist Kerry Callen! And the new Muppet-style versions of Franken Berry, Boo Berry, and Count Chocula!

    La poétique du souvenir avec Yasmine Hamdan (Liban) et Christine Zayed (Palestine). Yasmine Hamdan est notre 1ère invitée pour la sortie de son 3ème album I Remember I Forget Yasmine Hamdan a d'abord surgi sur la scène musicale avec la formation indie électronique pionnière Soapkills, formée avec Zeid Hamdan dans le Beyrouth de la fin des années 90. Le répertoire entêtant et irrévérencieux du duo ainsi que ses visuels auront rayonné créativement à travers le monde arabe et au-delà, culminant avec une anthologie en 2015. Après s'être installée à Paris en 2005, la musicienne collabore avec le producteur Mirwais (ex-Taxi Girl et producteur de Madonna) pour le projet Y.A.S., à l'origine d'un album dansant et raffiné, Arabology, paru chez Universal en 2009. Depuis, elle s'est fait un nom au-delà des frontières en tant qu'autrice-compositrice et productrice solo, entrelaçant avec élégance des univers éloignés comme la poésie, la pop et la tradition panarabe, l'electronica, la soul ou encore la guitar music. Elle a collaboré avec des cinéastes de tous horizons tels que Elia Suleiman, Jim Jarmusch (chantant notamment à l'écran dans le film de 2013 Only Lovers Left Alive), Daniele Arbid ou Ghassan Salhab, et a joué au sein de projets collectifs majeurs comme Africa Express. En solo, Yasmine Hamdan a sorti un premier disque en 2013, Ya Nass, un en 2017, Al Jamilat, et à présent son troisième album I Remember I Forget, co-produit aux côtés de son collaborateur de longue date Marc Collin (Nouvelle Vague). La mémoire est une force sans pareille. I Remember I Forget [Je me souviens que j'oublie] succède à deux disques solo salués à l'international, Ya Nass (2013) et Al Jamila (2017). L'album scelle la réputation de Yasmine Hamdan en tant que conteuse talentueuse, performeuse captivante et défricheuse indépendante. L'artiste polyglotte, née à Beyrouth et installée à Paris, a toujours mêlé dans sa musique l'intime, le poétique et la politique, souvent avec un humour vif, puisant ses influences dans les dialectes et sonorités du monde pan-arabe et d'ailleurs. C'est plus que jamais le cas sur ce nouvel album, un ensemble de chants de beauté et de fureur légitime, forgé dans le tumulte de crises mondiales, notamment l'explosion en 2020 du port de Beyrouth et l'effondrement économique du Liban (désastre financier qui aura protégé l'élite aux dépens du plus grand nombre). Dans un monde moderne de plus en plus fracturé, les prises de parole de Yasmine Hamdan semblent plus vitales que jamais. «Pour cet album, je voulais m'attacher à un lieu spécifique — et il fallait que ce soit le Liban», explique Yasmine Hamdan. «Mon lien avec le Liban et ce qui lui est arrivé a constitué le terreau à partir duquel j'ai commencé à écrire et composer l'album. Cependant, au fur et à mesure du processus créatif, cet endroit est devenu un symbole, une métaphore, une catharsis pour ce qui se passe plus largement dans le monde et à travers l'expérience collective.»  «En dépit de la douleur ressentie devant ce qui est infligé à mon lieu de naissance, s'est installé peu à peu un sentiment de tendresse, de familiarité, ce qui m'a apporté de l'espoir et de l'inspiration. Beyrouth a certainement continué à être généreuse avec moi», raconte-t-elle. Yasmine Hamdan s'est ainsi attelée à l'écriture des chansons, renouant pour l'occasion avec un collaborateur de longue date, Marc Collin (Nouvelle Vague). I Remember I Forget a été produit sous la tutelle de leurs labels respectifs, Hamdanistan et Kwaidan, et paraît chez Crammed Discs / [PIAS].   Titres joués durant l'entretien : I Remember I Forget, Shmaali, Shadia et The Beautiful Losers. ► Album I Remember I Forget (Crammed Discs / [PIAS] 2025). Site Yasmine Hamdan - Bandcamp. YouTube. Actu concert 18 mars, Paris Le Trianon.   Puis la #SessionLive reçoit Christine Zayed pour l'album Kama Kuntu. Née dans une famille mélomane de Palestine, élevée entre Jérusalem et Ramallah, Christine Zayed est une chanteuse, une compositrice et une instrumentiste, virtuose du qanûn. Elle a été initiée dès son plus jeune âge à la musique arabe classique et contemporaine, ainsi qu'à la musique traditionnelle palestinienne. Son répertoire s'appuie principalement sur la musique arabe classique, basée sur le maqam (la science et la pratique de l'improvisation modale arabe), et sur la poésie arabe, en particulier la poésie palestinienne contemporaine. Ses compositions, fortement ancrées dans la tradition, sont résolument contemporaines, recherchant les chemins de la modernité dans le croisement avec d'autres univers musicaux. Elle vit et travaille en France depuis quelques années et collabore à de multiples projets, notamment au sein de l'Ensemble Chakâm ou du groupe Atine. Elle se produit en solo ou en trio avec le flûtiste Sylvain Barou et le percussionniste Habib Meftah interprétant un répertoire que l'on retrouve dans son premier album, Kama Kuntu («Ce que j'étais»). On y croise plusieurs invités, notamment Piers Faccini. Titres interprétés au grand studio : - Avant que je photographie les oiseaux, Live RFI - Animal, Feat. Piers Faccini, extrait de l'album  - Ghalimi Live RFI. Line Up : Christine Zayed (qanûn, chant), Sylvain Barou (flûtes, duduk) et Habib Meftah (percussions) Son : Mathias Taylor, Benoît Letirant. ► Album Kama Kuntu (T-Rec 2024). Site - YouTube.

    EPISODE 110 -  “LON CHANEY SR, and LON CHANEY JR” - 10/25 LON CHANEY, known as the 'Man of a Thousand Faces,' amazed audiences in the silent era with his unforgettable performances in The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923) and The Phantom of the Opera (1925). He was a master of transformation, using makeup, physicality, and raw emotion to create these classic characters no one had ever seen before. His son, LON CHANEY, JR., had the difficult job of following in his father's footsteps. But he made his own mark, especially as The Wolf Man (1941), a role that turned him into one of Universal's great horror stars. Join us as we discuss this remarkable father-and-son duo, their careers, their lives, and how the Chaney name became synonymous with both monsters and movie magic.
