Episode 117 is about a 1985 vampire movie that has some laughs as well as some scares. Times were different, so one might wonder how the comedy and the horror hold up. Your hosts will get into that after discussing some other things. For example, Jolyon celebrates Frankenstein’s 200th birthday with a great book. Will watched a movie aptly described as “What if a Canadian Ed Wood made Star Wars?”. He’ll explain the glorious results! Richard watched a documentary about career and hobbyist haunters, some of whom have mentally and physically abusive haunted attractions. Don’t worry, they don’t do anything as bad as making you watch the Nicolas Cage remake of “The Wicker Man” (2006), with or without bees.
Then, on to “Fright Night” (1985). Your hosts reflect on hazy memories of early viewings. Will and Richard have differing opinions of the "Evil Ed" character. Will figures him to be the “Foxy Grandpa” character of this one and Richard just thinks he’s the best part of the whole movie. Jolyon truly likes Peter Vincent, like any reasonable horror fan should! Do you like cinematic breast facts? We got ‘em! Did Roddy McDowall rub ice on his nipples before each take? You’ll find out!
So, grab a femur and start fighting off that bat puppet, but try not to break it! That’ll cost a couple of days of shooting!
