The Kenblog: Great Movie Vampires!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with a list honoring on of the most popular movie monsters of all time: The Vampire! Vamps have been a movie staple since the silent era and have maintained an enduring popularity to the present day. The latest take on the Dracula myth “The Invitation” has just hit theaters and although the story is intriguing, it’s one of the lesser vampire efforts. There are some great cinematic vampires out there and here is a list of some of my favorites! Enjoy and feel free to comment below or on my Facebook page! So Sayeth The Kendog!

Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with another couple of old time radio programs for your listening pleasure. As a fan of all sorts of entertainment, I have a special place in my heart for the “theater of the mind.” I know it’s hard to believe, but there was a time when television didn’t exist and radio was the entertainment medium of the masses. My grandfather grew up listening the the classic broadcasts and passed that love on to me. When I was about eleven years old he gave me a tape of the “Who’s On First” program from Abbott & Costello and I was absolutely hooked! This wasn’t just the classic routine but the entire program featuring three segments, two musical numbers, and ads from their sponsor Camel Cigarettes. Jack Benny has since supplanted the comic duo as my favorite radio comedian, but Abbott & Costello will always be my first, primarily because those two were able to strengthen the already wonderful bond I had with my grandfather. I’m also throwing in a classic Abbott & Costello program featuring a very funny performance from Dracula himself, Bela Legosi. The three legends are clearly having a ball here as Legosi successfully lampoons his greatest creation. Enjoy the programs and feel free to comment below or at my Facebook page! So Sayeth The Kendog!
