The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 90 (Flesh For Frankenstein and Blood For Dracula)
The Uncut Gems PodcastThe Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.
In this episode of the show we are joined by our good buddies Kevin and Erin, hosts of The Podcast That Wouldn't Die, to talk about two movies directed by Paul Morrisey and starring Udo Kier, Flesh For Frankenstein and Blood For Dracula. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us wonder whether these folks knew how to make movies, whether they aimed to take inspiration from softcore pornography and whether anyone should pay attention to any and all social commentary embedded within their narratives. We also take stock of Udo Kier's career, wonder why Joe Dallesandro had one to begin with, marvel at the gross-out violence on display and even postulate that a certain Monty Python movie may have ripped off the iconic ending of Blood For Dracula.
