Will & Hesse are joined by Nymphowars’ Theda Hammel to discuss two horror films from 1964 starring the legend Vincent Price: Sidney Salkow’s “The Last Man on Earth” & Roger Corman’s “The Masque of the Red Death”. Both deal with the end of the world in their own way and highlight Price’s unique combination of campiness and dramatic heft for both comedic and horrifying effects.

This episode is so much fun! Theda is a delightful guest, and Vincent Price is such an excellent focus.

We don't like Mike Flanagan????

Richard Mattheson is such a kickass writer. He turned out genre defining work but never reached the notoriety of Poe, Lovecraft, Jackson, and King though he certainly earned it. One of the best to ever do it and modern horror owes him so much. Dead heat between Poe and Jackson for best American horror writer but without Mattheson the genre from the midcentury on wouldn’t be what it is. Necessary dude. If anyone hasn’t read him, you should. You *will* find something cool.

I appreciate the standard chapo news coverage but also at the current fever pitch really appreciate this pause. Also hesse referencing “choke on it” reminded me of Matt referencing that in one of his most recent eps 🥺❤️‍🩹

Great episode! If anyone wants more of Vincent Price camping it up in a series of fancy outfits I highly recommend Theater of Blood. Price plays a much maligned actor who takes revenge on his critics by killing them in Shakespeare themed death traps.

Price had three wives and two children so I reckon he was a classic chaotic bisexual and probably would’ve married a few dudes in-between wives if he’d had the chance, reminds me of when I found out that Baz Lurhmann is married to a woman and has two children it makes no sense and yet…

Was this the inspiration for desperate living?

Just occurred to me that Hal Hartley would be a great ep for a future movie mindset (non horror albeit)

Theda is an absolute riot. What fun.

Never in a thousand years did I think I'd be wanting to rewatch Vincent Price movies, but goddamn movie mindset is real. Revive Sneak Previews w Will and Hesse!

Yet more reasons to love Vincent Price: his son V.B. Price was/is a much-beloved presence in the New Mexico journalism and letters scene, having written a column for Albuquerque's less-reactionary daily paper for decades, along with a lot of other writing. Seems like a truly great dude. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V._B._Price
