327 - 5000 FINGERS OF DR. T (1953) + INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES... (1964) ft. Charles Pinion
Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest filmmaker Charles Pinion (the director behind scuzzy and psychedelic shot-on-video art-horror films we've covered including RED SPIRIT LAKE, TWISTED ISSUES and WE AWAIT) discuss two surreal musical fantasies that he loved growing up and informed his own directing style: Roy Rowland's Dr. Suess scripted take on a dark post-war WIZARD OF OZ-style imaginatively dreamlike, Technicolor children's fantasy THE 5000 FINGERS OF DR. T (1953) and infamous cult trash filmmaker Ray Dennis Steckler's no-budget Long Beach amusement park "monster musical" THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES WHO STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED-UP ZOMBIES!!? (1964).
