Part of the series Kevin Geeks Out. Includes “Vincent Price Presents…” comic books for all audience members!
Kevin Geeks Out is a comedy-variety show where writer-comedian Kevin Maher presents a cavalcade of vintage videos, guest speakers, trivia prizes, drinking games and "dramatic" readings all around a specific theme.
This month, Kevin Geeks Out about Vincent Price! The two-hour video cavalcade features rare film and TV clips you won’t find on YouTube or Netflix.
Kevin's co-host for October is horror fan Tom Peyer, writer of Tek Jannsen, Hourman, Silver Age: Doom Patrol, Galveson and plenty of other geek-worthy comics. Guests include:
- Media Historian Heather Hendershot compares Price and Don Knotts
- Legendary actor Arthur Anderson talks about his colleague Vincent Price and their days at Orson Welles' Mercury Players!
- Playwright/film journalist Robert Satuloff examines the dark side of Price.
- Emmy-winning comedy writer (The Colbert Report, The Daily Show) Eric Drysdale looks at Price's TV legacy (from Brady Bunch to Variety Specials)
The two-hour tribute celebrates Price in familiar and surprising roles as Mad Scientist, Action Hero, Sinister Villain, Self-parodying Guest Star, Fiend's Fiend, gourmet and art-collector. All this and trivia contests, rare recordings of Price reading Percy Shelley and a free pencil-moustache with every admission!
