Movie Mindset 13 - You’re All FREAKS!!!: Disease, Death and Vincent Price feat. Theda Hammel

My two favorite movies I think

Rip Roger Corman

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

love this ep, i talk to my cats in vincent price voice all the time

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!

Theda is an absolute riot. What fun.

You guys should review the Soviet horror film Viy :)

These are so much fun

Thanks for doing this run of episodes—it’s been a much needed and enjoyable diversion so far

Will has become my favorite movie reviewer. His enthusiasm for such a wide variety of movie genres is so infectious. Hesse is great in the podcast too but Will is the one who really makes me want to watch some of these movies

Poltergeist also has a somewhat sexual style mom who gets raped by a ghost in her underwear. Spielberg has to be a sicko right? Is his death going to be a Jimmy Savile situation where it turns out he had the temple of doom under his house?

My grandfather loved Vincent Price, thought he was "a hoot."

great episode. i love hessa and willA's vincent price so much. i went and subscribed to nymphowars strictly to have theda's laughter as a regular part of my life going forward

Jane Asher was also in The Stone Tape, written by Quatermass author Nigel Kneal, well worth a watch if you havent already seen it.

Theatre of Blood, and of course Dr Phibes are wonderful late Vincent vehicles. They feel post-Targets, chastened, with decline as their primary subject. The London of Theatre is viscerally clammy, rain slicked, derelict and mouldy, almost in the vein of Ramsey Campbell.

All 3 of you give great Vincent, I’m living for it. My takeaway (besides more bright red blood) is probably Will’s observation, “they were having fun in the 60s”

Can we get Cameron on one of these please please

So, the last man on earth is just staying positive in the apocalypse with worse production values

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

Was this the inspiration for desperate living?

Interesting story about Price was Dennis Hopper first meeting him at Martha’s Vineyard in the early’60’s and being impressed by the sizable Modern Art collection he had and apparently sparking Hopper’s interest in collecting

I'd appreciate a new Patreon tier that's just Will and Hesse talking in their Vincent Price voices

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…

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.

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 🥺❤️‍🩹

I am utterly charmed by Theda

Watching masque of the red death gave me ptsd flashbacks of the Ambrosio scenes from playing Immortality

I'm with Theda 100% and prefer the slightly spooky drive home with some light ghoul pushing to the anxiety attack I had watching Infinity Pool.

damn Spielberg just like me fr

I want to hear you guys review Caligula

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.

We don't like Mike Flanagan????

Sewwweeeeeee

Hesse’s voices in this has me rolling with laughter

Will, did you really not enjoy Midnight Mass? I appreciate a lot of what you pick, but calling that boring while touting a movie where Vincent Price narrates his shopping for an hour? Love you, do not understand you.

Did we do the Black and White or In-Color "Last Man On Earth (1964)? I'm not starting the episode till I see it to avoid spoils

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

delightful

By no means am I a cinema sins type viewer but WHY is there still fresh garlic 3 years into the apocalypse? Figured he’d start a farm for that shit

"At 2pm in Italy every single person falls to the ground limp for an hour" I mean, this is basically true

MARAT/SADE is a great movie and Patrick Magee was an incredible actor

loving this

Will, I know you have a lot to manage sometimes... but, please, let your co-hosts, and especially your guests, finish their thoughts!! This rocked, Theda was so fun, thanks y'all!<3 <3 <3

You see, I was bitten by a vampire bat when I was in Panamá for some ssssexual tourism

Theda!! For the flyover country

thank you for mentioning vincent price's dramatic heft in the description. campy was his flavor but that motherfucker can act.

Vincent Price flouncing around the ballroom in anguish as he’s surrounded by red-dead hands is an all-timer scene
