Featured review
This was another "Svengoolie" ep that I highly enjoyed
After nearly a year of resting on my DVR, I finally watched this "Svengoolie" ep which showed this classic Bob Hope horror/comedy spliced with the tittle host making pertinent cracks or a Hope impressionist doing the same. Svengoolie also performs "Living La Vida Loca" with lyrics changed to reflect the Hope persona. The movie itself is a fine mixture of the atmospheric and humorous. Hope and his African-American manservant Willie Best share many funny lines that got me laughing constantly even some stereotypical ones that seemed good-natured to me. As for leading lady Ms. Paulette Goddard, well, she's certainly one of the loveliest women from this period that ever graced the silver screen. Really, all I'll say now is both the movie and the "Svengoolie" wraparounds made my day so, yeah, that's a high recommendation.
