This episode will air on the day after Halloween so we decided that it was time to show Jena a bizarre horror film starring Vicent Price. Much like The Matrix, nobody can tell you what The Abominable Dr. Phibes is – you have to see it for yourself. Jena was clearly still unsure what she’d seen when the movie was over and that reaction was just about perfect. If you haven’t seen the movie yet – go ahead and listen to the episode. We promised that there is no way to spoil the cinematic experience that is The Abominable Dr. Phibes!
Our next episode airs on the 15th of November and it will be about Jaques Tati’s Playtime!

My introduction to Vincent Price was from the Hilarious House of Frightenstein. He did the intro, the outro, and various segments throughout.
Here’s the intro and end.
I love Vincent Price. Funny and horrific all in one bundle.
You overlooked the tag line for the movie “Love is means never having to say you’re ugly” was a parody of the very successful movie “Love Story” from 1970
