"Vincent Price Halloween Thriller and Mystery Theater" (HD) TV Specials [Audio Fixed] 1984

Vincent Price hosts a Halloween Special that goes over all the spooky music from 1984. It's crazy how many halloween themed songs came out in 1984. Thriller, Somebody's Watching Me, GHOSTBUSTERS theme song (I think the name of it is I Want a New Drug), etc. Though calling the Greg Kihn Band song (https://youtu.be/43_GqFW7iYc) a Halloween song is a bit of a stretch. The music video is, but I don't think the song itself is too spooky. The zombie effects are amazing though, truly inspired by Romero himself. Also that's the only music video I saw for the "Jeopardy." Weird his official account doesn't post it.

Oh yeah, this is about Vincent Price. He's pretty great. He does a great camera commercial too. He's just one of those people that seems born old. Like he came out twirling his weird mustache. He's like Salvador Dali (and his anteater) in that way. I wonder if they hung out.

He did hang out with Elvira the same 1984 Halloween he filmed this:

There is also the PBS masterpiece theater intro and Vincent Price introducing Sherlock Holmes. This is also 1984. Just give Vincent price a story and he makes it sound ominous. I like when he looks over at the other camera. That animated intro is weird too. I like the "CAW CAW" the crow dragon does after it says Mobil. Classic Sherlock Holmes.

Audio has been fixed and video has been enhanced. But this is a very early recording in 1984...

These are the behind the scenes for the filming of this TV special in Atlanta:
