  • Bobby 'Boris' Pickett recorded the classic 'Monster Mash' in 1962, then Boris Karloff made the film 'Black Sabbath' in 1963. Opening scenes of this film and the song by Bobby were mixed with my computer and here's the result, 'Boris and Bobby do the Mash!' Enjoy!

    He was a very gentle soul, RIP William Henry Pratt, aka Boris Karloff! Snowbound Theater was always special when they would run one of your movies! The local TV station were I live in CT has not done Snowbound Theater in a good 45 years now!

      From all I've read about him, and seen interview clips and biographies, Boris seems like the kind of person I would have loved to know!! I'd love to tell his daughter, Sara, about how much her father meant to me!!

      @@MetFan37 Well said and well put ! From all that I've read he was an incredibly kind & gentle man. Years ago I left a fan email at his daughter Sarah Karloff's website and she sent me very nice reply, assuring me that your father was a loving & devoted father. How wonderful know ! THANK YOU so much for your insightful comment ! :-)

    as elementary school kids in the 50s we grew up with these great movies from the 30s on week-end late night (10pm) Fright Night tv. LOL And then, the 10 cents double features of even more "monster" and space movies at week-end all day at the movies activity. Cars with loads of kids would be dropped off curbside at noon, and parents would come for pick up around 7PM...talk about low cost Saturday all day babysitting.

  • @gerrynightingale9045
    @gerrynightingale9045 7 лет назад +15

    It's sad no one has ever taken the places of the actors from Hollywood's "Golden Era"...and Karloff is a great example of that...his original portrayal of the "Monster" has never been equaled, despite the passage of the best part of a century! (the moment that 'Frankenstein' opens his dead eyes is still the stuff of nightmares...a 'dead thing re-animated' is too horrible to even imagine happening)

    In 1987 my soon to be wife and I went to a place called Spooky World in Berlin, Mass. I had a bad cold. As we waited outside in the freezing weather for a hay ride we passed by a stage area. The door swung open and the man himself, Bobby Boris Pickett, came out and sang this song. Suddenly I forgot all about my cold and the cold. What a treat not a trick! ALL true!

    Most of the old greats got their start on the stage and many were classically trained. today they get managers and do modeling or sing then do television commercials before transitioning to TV roles. Eventually they get a movie role. Nowadays a TV actor is almost the same thing as a Film actor and few actors go near an actual stage. Oh and if you're not pretty don't bother. The monsters are all cgi now.

    Karloff recited "Peppermint Twist" as a poem on "Shindig" , but , did'nt do "Monster Mash". They probably asked him to , and he , most likely , said "When pigs fly over Heathrow Airport". I have a copy of that episode , that's the only musical bit he does.
