Hello! And welcome to season to the newest episode of The Dana Gould Hour podcast. Fasten your enthusiasm harness, we are blasting off, yet again. We have two, count 'em, two, fantastic guests today. Richard Edlund is a legend. In his amazing career, he is known first and foremost as one of the founders of ILM, Industrial Light & Magic, which created the special effects for a little film called Star Wars, and revolutionized how movies were made in Hollywood. But that is just the tip of the iceberg, Edlund began his career in the late '50s early '60s. When you watch on old episode of the original Addams Family TV show, that's Richard Edlund's hand coming out of the box as Thing. He designed the font for the original Star Trek ,and on and on and on. Also, Dave Bertolino is here. Dave is the creator of Spooky World, founded in Berlin, Massachusetts, the middle of nowhere! Spooky World became a nationally known horror theme park attraction. It started from nothing, and immediately became HUGE. Dave has a new book out entitled Behind The Screams At Spooky World and he'll be here to discuss that. Who looks like an accountant but is close pals with Linda Blair, Tom Savini and Alice Cooper? Dave Bertolino, that's who. True Tales From Weirdsville tells the tale of schlockmeister par excellence William Castle. From Emergo to Percepto to Illusiono, William Castle was the gimmick king of b-movies. Larger than life, stranger than fiction, more real than any reality you can conjure, Mr. William Castle. There are some great live performances coming up, so check out the events page at www.danagould.com/events/! And now, it's on, to our filthy business.

From Castle’s ingenious gimmicks to the film’s enduring influence on horror cinema, our hosts explore every shadowy corner of this atmospheric tale. Of course, no séance would be complete without a properly spirited refreshment. While discussing the film, Karen and Greg raise a glass of their specially crafted “Lucky 13” cocktail, a hauntingly delicious concoction inspired by the film’s supernatural residents.

And this one is for Thirteen Ghosts!Pete takes us through the story of a grieving family that learns they have inherited a steampunk mansion from their estranged, ghost-hunting uncle.

Ian and Dr. AC return to provide more haunting analyses of a William Castle Classic and its slipshod 21st Century remake!In 1960's 13 Ghosts, a destitute family inherits an old mansion from a distant, wealthy relative. Shortly after moving in they discover the place is already occupied by...you guessed it! The only way to see and deal with these pesky poltergeists is to don a pair of goofy experimental glasses--a version of which allowed moviegoers to see the spirits in "Illusion-O"!Decades later, Dark Castle Pictures gave us director Steve Beck's (very loose) re-imagining, in which the house is no longer just a mansion, but a marvel of mechanisms, glass, and mayhem that would make the Umbrella Corporation blush. There's also a higher body count, buckets of blood, and a Satanic subplot that clears the shark and collides with the sun.In this spoilerific look at both films, Ian and AC continue to make the case for William Castle as a great horror filmmaker whose reputation as a cheesy gimmick-monger is unfair.They also discuss the key differences between the sly classic and the sloppy remake--and the unexpected benefits of watching the films in reverse order!Support Kicking the Seat on Patreon, subscribe to us on YouTube, and follow us at:XLetterboxdInstagramFacebookShow Links:Watch the 13 Ghosts (1960) trailer.Watch the Thir13en Ghosts (2001) trailer."Castle Freaks" is the next leg in our classic horror journey.

I noen episoder løfter vi frem filmer vi mener fortjener litt mer oppmerksomhet – dette er en slik episode. Denne gangen snakker vi om den lille, sjarmerende og undervurderte slasheren fra 1991: Popcorn. En gruppe filmstudenter arrangerer en skrekkfilmfestival på en nedlagt kino, komplett med gamle filmer og tilhørende gimmicker: elektrifiserte seter, en gigantisk mygg på vaier og illeluktende dufter – alt i ekte William Castle-stil. Men under denne kvelden i skrekkens tegn begynner noen å drepe arrangørene, én etter én. Og ikke nok med det – morderen er en mester i forkledning og kan være hvem som helst. Popcorn er en slasher full av idéer – kanskje litt for mange? Selv om ikke alle trådene nøstes helt opp, er dette en underholdende film proppfull av sjarm. Et must for alle slasherfans… og tør vi si det: en ekte hidden gem? Med: Chris og Kurt Vignett fremført av: Filmjunkiene v/Ivar Nikolai Fallet og Aleksander U. Serigstad

This month we're taking a look at Dark Castle Films! They started off as remakes of William Castle Films but they quickly abandoned that. The first movie in our series is a remake but not of a William Castle movie, House of Wax, which is famous for having Vincent Price. The remake has Paris Hilton. We talk about it.

Show Notes:This week I had the opportunity to chat with horror writer Haley Newlin on the show. Her latest book The Film You Are About To See was released last October on Max Axe Media and it was inspired by her love for William Castle movies and drive-in movies. She revealed her writing process and the theory she uses when she sketches out her story beats. She also told me why she is so drawn to oldies horror, why she is critical of horror movies that include twins in the plot, and so much more!Haley's Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/haleynewlin_author/ Website: https://www.haleynewlinauthor.com/ Buy “The Film You Are About To See”: https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-film-you-are-about-to-see-haley-newlin/14e2da6db244a3e7 Who's There?

William Castle channels his inner Hitchcock with this sordid tale of selfish relatives (re: inheritance plot) and gender bending minutiae; it's 1961's Homicidal, featuring a lead pulling double duty, bad teeth, and a gimmicky fright break. It's also our 15th birthday, so we've collectively surpassed Erik's mental age by a couple of spins around the sun. We discuss the obvious (though unintentional?) riffs on Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960), the labyrinthine murder plot, decapitated mutes, fright break theater experiences, and much, much more!

Now that we're in October already, it's a fine time to reflect on the uncanny grasp that horror has in the hearts of so many queer people. So for this week's episode, we're heading into the Sewers archives for a chat with director Jeffrey Schwarz, for whom horror is just one small slice of the story. Jeffrey's made a lifelong study of film, starting with an early job editing the documentary The Celluloid Closet, right up to today with documentaries about people like Divine, Vito Russo, and horror icon William Castle. I chatted with Jeffrey back in 2017, when he was about to debut a documentary about the flamboyant producer Alan Carr — a fitting subject, since as a young gay man, Jeffrey found kindred spirits in people who, like him, reveled in intensity and excess. We'll have that conversation in just a minute. First, a reminder that I have a new YouTube videos out about the movie Kiss of the Spider Woman. That's available now at youtube.com/mattbaume.And also! For the entire month of October I'm hosting livestreams of films by and about James Whale, the iconic director behind 1931's Frankenstein and many other classics. Join me every Saturday and Sunday on Twitch for movies like The Old Dark House, The Invisible Man, and of course Frankenstein and The Bride of Frankenstein. This weekend we'll be watching clips from the 1994 film Gods & Monsters, and examining how closely that fictional account of Whale's life follows the reality. That's at Twitch.tv/mattbaume this Saturday and Sunday.And as always, if you're enjoying The Sewers of Paris, support the show on Patreon at Patreon.com/mattbaume.

Night 8 – House on Haunted Hill (1959)Vincent Price throws the deadliest dinner party in horror history! We're breaking down the original House on Haunted Hill, its twisted premise, William Castle's showman flair, and how it influenced everything from Scooby-Doo to Clue.Listen wherever you get podcasts — and don't forget, surviving till morning might earn you $10,000… if you live long enough to collect it.

It's a (time-capsuled) All-Guest August episode with fellow Louisiana-centric film podcast cohorts, Brandon and Britnee of Swampflix, as they bring to our attention the gimmick laden work of William Castle, and this film, which is his response to Psycho.You can check out Swampflix's podcast and their film reviews at swampflix.com (with Brandon's fun art). If you want to know more about Puccino's, check out lovepuccinos.com/gambling, where you can learn about the casino games available inside, and how Puccino's "don't care if you play poker naked". This is not a paid advertisement for Puccino's or gambling, I just think it's funny.

William Castle always new that the hoopla surrounding a movie was as big a part of the experience as the movie itself. This time around, we take a look at 1959's The Tingler, a film that introduced the world to the wonders of Percepto that had the added bonus of Vincent Price absolutely dripping with ham. Then, 1993's Matinee! is a loving callback to a simpler time when the looming threat of thermonuclear annihilation could be staved off with monster movies presented by a carnival showman.Email: info@channel-40.comTwitter: @WHXN40

Send us a textI am Don Laughie, and I have reviewed the House on Haunted Hill. So amusing. There'll be food and drink and ghosts, and perhaps even a few murders... That is right we are quoting the late great Vincent Price where he teaches us how to tug on hair, trick party guest, and where the best place to leave a vat of acid!AND THANK YOU FOR LISTENINGPLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/fromdusktilldonpodcast?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y   

In this episode of ClassHorrorCast, we unlock the doors to the twisted, blood-soaked funhouse that is House on Haunted Hill (1999).Part remake of William Castle's 1959 classic and part late-'90s horror fever dream, this Dark Castle Entertainment debut gave us Geoffrey Rush as a delightfully unhinged theme park tycoon, Famke Janssen as his venomous wife, and a haunted asylum packed with gruesome secrets.We dig into the film's wild mix of campy performances, stylish set design, and early CGI ghost work — and debate whether it's genuinely terrifying or just gloriously over-the-top trash.Along the way, we talk behind-the-scenes stories, the creative team's vision, and how the movie helped kick off a short but memorable wave of high-concept horror remakes in the early 2000s.From unforgettable gore moments to that infamous Vincent Price-inspired smirk, we revisit House on Haunted Hill to decide if it's a haunted masterpiece, a guilty pleasure, or both.If you enjoyed this - Check out my other content here - https://linktr.ee/FirstClassHorrorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

Wipe that grin off your face, part 2 of Ray Russell's “Sardonicus” is here, and it's taking a turn for the grim. A turn, if you will, like a smile dropping into a frown. We promise it's better than the mouth prosthetics in the 1961 “Sardonicus” film at least, even if it does lack the “punishment pole” gimmick. William Castle was nuts y'all.

Based on the popular radio series of the same name, a grief-stricken man (Richard Dix) mourning the death of his wife hires a hit-man to kill him, only to discover she may not be dead after all. Co-starring J. Carrol Naish. Directed by William Castle.

This week we're joined by Chicago's Joan Waters, local drag queen and John Waters super fan, and we're taking a look at Polyester, John Waters' first studio film. With his biggest budget to date, Waters paid tribute to William Castle, and Douglas Sirk, two of his favorite filmmakers. Sirk directed the Rock Hudson classic All That Heaven Allows, a clear influence on queer filmmakers like Todd Haynes and Rainer Werner Fassbinder. So we paired it with Polyester as we take a look at the similarities, differences, and Sirk's continued influence in queer cinema. Say Hi!
