Episode description
Travel back with us to a time when comic-book movies were less cool (and certainly less respectable), to examine how one of comic's most enduring cult heroines ended up with only one feature film to her name: a little-known, made-for-cable oddity from cult-movie king Roger Corman, and T&A/Schlock movie "maestro" Jim Wynorski. Between a leading lady the director didn't want, to the surprising casting of a famous rock star in the villain role, to a Vegas-based production fraught with problems...Vampirella is definitely one of those movies where the behind-the-scenes might be more interesting than the movie itself. But we're here to talk about it all, as we kick off our month-long event, "Will You Be My VAMPentine?"
