Episode 147: Horror 101 - Episode 147: Masque of The Red Death (1964)

On our 147th show we are once again paying homage to a recently lost treasure.  We lost Roger Corman at the age of 98.  The amount of talent that was realised through his projects is innumerable .  The man was a Hollywood Kingmaker.  Nobody could make a film as quick and as cheap as Roger Corman yet he still produced solid, entertaining films.  We hope you enjoy as we give the Horror 101 Treatment to Corman's classic The Masque of the Red Death from 1964, starring Vincent Price.  Show Highlights:01:00  Prelude to Terror06:40  Corman the Kingmaker...10:40  Choosing Masque to feature...15:40  The Day of Their Deliverance...21:10  Esmeralda and Hop Toad...24:50  Manipulation and Debauchery...28:30  Midnight Terrors...30:45  Scarlatti and his Wife...34:00  Hop Toad and Alfredo...36:45  Failed Escape...39:40  Five Daggers...41:40  The Final Ritual...46:00  Destruction of the Villagers...49:30  The Burning Gorilla...51:25  Someone Wearing Red...53:30  The Dance of Death...57:40  The Convening Deaths...59:00  Scoring the Film...69:15  Farewell Mr. Corman...72:30  Conclusion.  Thanks for Listening!
