The Dogcast: Some “Suspense” for your old radio pleasure!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with some classic tales of “Suspense from the wonderful world of old radio. This is in honor of “Barbarian” a terrific thriller that is currently playing in theaters (you can read the review here). “Suspense” was one of the most successful dramas in radio history, running from the early 1940s to the 1960s. Major film stars often appeared on the program, often doing work that differed from their onscreen personas. Here we have a couple of “Suspense” episodes from the forties. One is a version of “The Most Dangerous Game” from 1943 and then we have the classic “House In Cypress Canyon” from 1946. “Cypress Canyon” is a true chiller, something to tide you over until Halloween.
