Subject: Boris Karloff and Vincent Price on Television
In reply to: Rick 's message, "Karloff and Vincent Price" on 05:12:52 12/10/10 Fri

Tower of London (1939) and the two 1960s films cited by Officer Torch are the only movies with both Karloff and Price in the cast, as far as I know. The Raven and The Comedy of Terrors are very entertaining, each containing a fun mixture of horror and humor.

Boris Karloff and Vincent Price appeared together on The Red Skelton Show on September 24, 1968. The three performers were in a skit parodying horror movies, with Skelton as the "Klem Kadiddle Monster" (Klem Kadiddlehopper was one of Skelton's stock characters). In a later segment Karloff and Price sang together.

I don't have a copy of this Red Skelton show, and don't know if it appears on any of the DVD collections of his variety show.

You're right Tim...I thought there was something else, like having to do with TV appearances or skits. It may have indeed been on the last season of the Red Skelton Show...I am not sure. I wasn't a Skelton fan regular, but caught his show on a hit and miss basis. I vaguely recall something though with Price and Karloff on a color TV we had purchased back then.

Here's a tip...Note: I am not plugging the outfit, nor am I saying it's not good. My own experiences were in fact favorable in the past, but do go shopping anyway for best price. The place in PA, around Philly was called Nina's Discount Records....I believe it's now called Oldies.com. I never had a problem, but not all offerings are closed captioned, so be aware of this. Not unusual though.

Go to your favorite search engine, punch in Oldies.com and then at their site, type in Red Skelton Show. You'll see a lot from that program, in fact, segment may be in last season show, in color...toward bottom of page. They have a lot of TV type "stuff" from yesteryear in DVDs. Dunno if skit with Skelton, Karloff, and Price are there, but you can call their toll free number, someone may know.
