Flashback to the days of cheesy horror hosts. Fun!
zorak1415 August 2011
Our local cable access channel played this at the wee hours of the morning and happen to catch it a few times. Produced out of New Bedford, MA, the main host is Penny Dreadful, a 900 year old witch. She shows public domain horror movies and breaks in with commentary or a skit periodically. Her entourage includes her childlike werewolf friend, Garou and monster hunter, Dr. Manfred Von Bulow. I think it is very clever what they can do on a micro budget and the results can be very entertaining. There is one particular skit where they play the love story of Jack the Ripper and Lizzie Borden. (I think it is on YouTube) Again, clever and well done.
