hilarious! but also interesting history


(4 stars)

organ: bap bap baaaaaammmmmmlol I've been reading Bruce Scivally's <i>Dracula FAQ</i>, (noice book!), and God knows there's a treasure trove of Lugosi stuff out there, somewhat obscure--for instance, this. It's a pity typecasting has been so terrible, even up through just a few years ago (2014), and I'm thankful it's somewhat subsided. But this little show is at least a taste of what he could do outside from his "bogeyman" stuff (especially as the last line of his reveals). My rating is as historical interest piece, not as artistic work. Peace out.

scary yet phycological show


(4 stars)

I first heard this show many years ago on a "haloween special" on AM radio in upstate NY. All these years later it is great to hear and be scared at again. This should be moved to the OLD RADIO section!!
