Freak of Nature (Bride of Frankenstein/Sam Irvin)

As we head into spooky season this October, I want to take a peek back into the Sewers archives for a chat with Sam Irvin. As a kid, Sam Irvin loved Bride of Frankenstein, and he brought that influence with him as an adult when he co-produced the film Gods and Monsters, and directed the show Dante’s Cove and the movie Elvira’s Haunted Hills — among many other projects. Whether working with Christopher Lee, Brian DePalma, or Ian McKellen, Sam is an endless source of amazing haunted Hollywood tales. We’ll have that conversation in just a moment. First a quick reminder that I host weekly livestreams every Sunday on Twitch. This weekend we’ll be continuing our watch-along of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
