MM32 - Vincent Price 2 feat. Theda Hammel
🕑 Added 2024-11-15 12:00:14 +0000 UTCBoo!👻
Not only is that the classic thing a ghost says, it’s also what you’re all probably saying because Movie Mindset’s second Spooky Season is officially over! Apologies for this one being late, but we go out with a scary good episode, bringing back Certified Vincent Price Expert Thedeath Damnel to review the third and fourth Price movies she’s ever seen: The House on Haunted Hill (Castle, 1959) and House of Wax (De Toth, 1953)!
We talk about how each movie artifice to enhance realism, the scariness of spooky skeletons, and, of course, the Grandaddy MC of the Haunted House himself, Vinny P! Hide under the covers, turn out the lights, and keep your gun coffin by your side because this one is a screaming good time! Mwahahahaha!

Damnel's observations on Price not needing a prestige vehicle to be brilliant is very apt. I would recommend "Madhouse" as another good Vincent Price movie, opposite Peter Cushing. Kinda meta in a way I don't normally like but it's solid throughout and the ending goes WAY off the rails in a way that worked for me. Dr. Phibes too

House of Wax is my 70s kid home with a fever watching daytime TV nightmare fuel movie, may have to actually re-watch it now.

Did Rick & Morty steal the acid vat idea from this movie?

Never stop doing a Vincent Price episode every season of Ghoulvie Screamset

You'd prefer a Daily Wire kino doofus to A+ shimbo Theda?

The year is 1958. White men legally murder black people for not stepping off the sidewalk in front of them. Rates of domestic violence and marital rape approach 100%. Every 19 year old boy has slaughtered one thousand Koreans. And the silliest, gayest man in America is regarded the way we would Art the Clown

Love movie mindset but Theda is a terrible guest

Lincoln held elections during a CIVIL. WAR. You think you have an excuse to delay slop service?! Suweeee! Suweeeee!

I once went through the security line next to Steven Tyler at Logan Airport in Boston. That guy is maaaaybe 5'5", and he has the general physique and bearing of an elderly female yoga teacher who's been on fire for several months
Jason Chapa
I forgot how GOOD Hess’s Price impression is. They’re a fricken medium!
Rohmer Simpson
Andre de Toth was one of the best to ever do it. I've got several favorites but DAY OF THE OUTLAW and PLAY DIRTY are two of the greatest films ever made.

Having a great time imagining that this is John Carpenter himself and he's a Chapo head

"There's a movie called 'The Smeller'!?" 👈 quote of the week.

I thought he was eventually open about being bisexual, IIRC there was a cute quote from his wife about them both "swearing off of boys" when they got married or something. Or I fully made that up lol
Chris
Don't listen to this guy, I like Movie Mindset so it cancels him out
buttface
Chapo has been on a downhill run ever since around the time movie madness started. Please do something new. This shit is really boring.

Did you all know that Vincent Price never came out? According to all sources, he’s a straight man. If that’s true, huge dub for straight white men.

The paddle-ball guy in House of Wax!

I have so much fun when they’re silly about the movies 😊

People in the 50s were afraid of skeletons, but cool with clowns.

I will never tire of the Vincent Price episodes 😍 I hope Witchfinder General is included next year.

It's reminding me of Dan Harmon's impressions of a rap interlude performed by Vincent Price. Also the soliloquy to himself after the acid bath dunk makes him sound like an anime villain. Props to our hosts for sticking to the spooky season theme even after the awful election news.

Hooray!!! I’ve been waiting for y’all to get to Haunted Hill. He is so great in that movie. Did you know that he was in the stage production of Gaslight on Broadway? God if only there was footage of it.

Three queens talking Vincent price 💗 love it

I think that Matt said that Rich Evans should be on the Wisconsin state flag or something once.

Ok so I'm not crazy....I knew there was one of these missing before Halloween. Glad to have it for the Spooky Thanksgiving season, nonetheless. What's the connection or influence between Red Letter Media and Chapo? I don't think they've ever been mentioned, on either side, but seem to share some basic ideas and tastes. RLM an early influence on the Chapos? Any opinions to be found here?
Tim O'
Because it's a great art form and it was a great way to pass the time during Covid lockdowns? Liking movies is a thing shared by many different kinds of Americans because it brings joy. This is like asking why nerds like ice cream and sunshine.
Matty yglesias
why did movies become the thing all nerds with no hobbies glommed onto

Greeeeetttttttttttinnnnnnggggsssssssssssss...

Yes... Ha ha ha... YES!
