Bella Bèla

In this week’s show we’re celebrating a trio of horror movies so bad that they’re almost endearingly so.

The first stars the most annoying human being ever born. The second stars the most unemotional strangler ever born. And the third stars a horror icon as a Teen Wolf/Abraham Lincoln ape monster with a penchant for hats and coats!

Music come from Bing, Bog and the 1940’s answer to Johnny Rotten, Mr Jimmy Dorsey!

There’s another brain-teaser as we try to guess… Who The Hell Is That Hollywood Legend?

There’s a dive into the QUESTION POT!

AND there’s a classic episode of radio horror featuring one of the greatest of all time!
