We’re still exploring our Listener Library, and this week our thanks go to Christian for recommending “Bloodbath,” an episode of Escape, featuring Vincent Price. Five men in the middle of the jungle discover a vast uranium deposit and a fortune awaits any survivors who reach civilization. But the fewer survivors there are, the more money awaits. Is nature crueler than the greed of humanity? Are these animals actually this deadly in real life? In what ways are Vincent Price and Cookie Monster alike? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!
I just discovered your wonderful podcast and thoroughly enjoyed your analysis of this episode–one of my favorite episodes of Escape. I look forward to listening to more of your podcast episodes.
Have you ever covered the X Minus One episode “A Gun for Dinosaur.” It’s a fun adaptation of a great short story by L Sprague rd Camp.
Welcome to the Society, Tim. We haven’t covered “A Gun for Dinosaur” yet, but we’ll add it to our list. I like it a lot. It might even please Eric (our resident X-Minus One skeptic). Be sure to check back next week for another X-Minus One story, “Mars Is Heaven”. Thanks again for listening!
