1974 Horror Hall of Fame - hosted by Vincent Price

Ойын-сауық

In 1974 Vincent Price hosted the Horror Hall of Fame, a light hearted and fun-filled look at horror movies through the years. Price's assistant was a hunchback named Zuckman, played by none other than Billy Van, the host of the Hilarious House of Frightenstein, a Canadian horror host program in which Price also appeared. Special guests for the night were John Carradine, Frank Gorshin, John Astin, makeup artist William Tuttle and actress Candy Clark, and Raymond McNally (author). There are tributes to famous films (and Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine), but the best parts are the sit down interviews between Price and the special guests. This is a wonderful piece of TV history that I'm truly glad survived. Price appears to be having a blast.

    I'm very glad people are enjoying this...This appears to be my rip I did years ago from a VHS tape someone sent to me, and I got recorded onto DVD. I believe I posted this on a couple of horror sites. I recognize the particular imperfections and such in this recording, which is how I knew it was the one I shared years ago. I'm pretty sure I saw this the night it originally aired on late-night network television. Will see what I can do about trying to clean it up a bit, and get it into HD resolution...but I doubt much can be done with this recording. Would be much better if someone found the original video master or even a secondary broadcast tape. There's also a similar one done years later hosted by Anthony Perkins called The Horror Show. Will have to see about getting that up also.

Most people only talk about his sinister roles, of which he had an untouchable talent, but he also played the victim, with equal ease & ease. RIP Mr Price, your legend will live on, thank you for your work.
