Tea For Terror

Tea For Terror #44: The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) with Graham Humphreys

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and artist Graham Humphreys wind up stranded at an unknown locale facing monstrous dangers which include, rising budgets, spoiled and misbehaved actors and, of course a handful of drug addled man-beasts. The production of The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996), as depicted in Lost Soul (2014), was clearly a troubled one, and the final film is often much-maligned. But does it deserve to be sent to the house of pain, or should it be given a fairer appraisal?

Murder, laughs and art, they try to noodle it out. So, like, listen in all you cheap creeps, it’s sure to be a gas.

Tea For Terror #40: Theatre of Blood (1973) Featuring Barbie Wilde

On this episode, host Andrew Graves is joined by Barbie Wilde (Hellbound: Hellraiser II) and together they spend an ill-advised evening at the theatre.

Tea For Terror #37: Wanted for Murder (1946) Featuring Darrell Buxton

On this episode, host Andrew Graves and guest Darrell Buxton take a wander around the backstreets of mid-1940s London and find themselves embroiled in a nasty serial murder case.

Too often overlooked, it’s a beautifully shot, dark psychological thriller that never disappoints. You have been warned.
