Manage episode 381211750 series 3397967
Happy Halloween! Join writer/director Mark Bessenger and me as we talk about one of the first horror comedies ever produced.
We go into how the film came into production as well as the history of this comedy team. How they started in vaudeville to their eventual end.
This film is a childhood favorite of mine!
