Bonus Episode 38: He Also Double Tapped It (The Vampire Lovers and Dr. Terror's House of Horrors)

  • Summary

  • Welcome, once again, to our annual house of horror! As usual, we discuss two horror movies featuring the stars of television’s Doctor Who. This year, we kick off proceedings with Hammer Films’ The Vampire Lovers (featuring Ingrid Pitt, Peter Cushing, and Kate O’Mara), before moving on to Amicus Production’s first anthology film, Dr Terror’s House of Horrors (featuring Peter Cushing, Roy Castle, and Michael Gough). This year, our good friend Diana Birney joins us for the ride!

    Join us as we discuss classist lesbianism (dammit, Carmilla/Marcilla!), gratuitous nudity, the best place for biting to draw blood, the heartlessness of killing a dog in one of the movies, killer kudzu, why Biff had to die (and why his couch is a sign of that coming), the joy of Christopher Lee facing off against Michael Gough, and the British love of trains. Anthony also talks about one of his childhood nightmares.
