What You Missed: Kevin Geeks Out About…

We were going to write a little blurb about what went down at Kevin Geeks Out About...Vincent Price, but then we read Kevin’s own recap. It became clear that adding anything more would be futile and redundant. Kevin has written the greatest blog post about one of the greatest Kevin Geeks Out About... and we don;t think that is hyperbole. Allow us to show you, as we recap his recap in bullet points:

  • Lisa Beebe served TWO kinds of Vincent Price cupcakes (portrait cupcakes as well as “fly” cupcakes with a plastic fly caught in a web of icing).
  • Writer Eric Drysdale (The Colbert Report) edited down footage from the promotional film for Sears’ Vincent Price Collection of Fine Art, followed by clips from a Price-hosted instructional VHS tape that came with the Nishika 3D Camera. (At the end of the segment, an audience member won said camera!)
  • ...we heard a first-hand account of a teenage boy writing a fan letter to Vincent Price (promising him a role in a horror movie)
  • The video-variety show also included some of Price’s finest audio recordings.
  • ...the good folks at Trailers From Hell let us screen Josh Olson’s commentary track for Witchfinder General.
  • Our friends at Blue Water Comics gave everyone in the audience not one but TWO issues of “Vincent Price Presents...”
  • And all audience members received a complimentary pencil mustache, courtesy of super-producer M. Sweeney Lawless.
  • Etc...

    And we thought the previous Kevin Geeks Out About...was something to brag about!

    If you feel a bit regretful for missing these, we have good news. This series continues on Nov 20, when Kevin Geeks Out About...Dummy Deaths.
