One of the joys of my life has been some of the people I have met and developed a relationship with over the years in the film industry. I regret that I never had the opportunity to meet some of the actors who are no longer with us. At the top of that list is Boris Karloff. To me, there is absolutely no equal in horror filmdom. Over the years I’ve had quite a few chances to hang out with Sara Karloff, his daughter. I’m happy to count her a friend. She was very instrumental in getting me some attention for my tribute song Man Created A Man. She has inherited that kind generosity that Boris was so known for. I had the chance to talk with Sara again. Thanks to the Universal release of the great Universal Monsters Collection on Blu-ray, we got together once again to chat about Boris Karloff. This time you get to eavesdrop, and you won’t even have to swear out a warrant. Bang it here to listen to my chat with Sara Karloff: Sara Karloff Interview

The new Universal release contains 30 classic films starting in the 1930’s with Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Wolfman, The Invisible Man, Creature From The Black Lagoon and all of the films in each of those franchises. Creature From The Black Lagoon and Revenge Of The Creature are also included in 3D. You also get the Abbott And Costello Meet the monsters films. We’ll be talking more about this collection throughout October.
