8th Annual Rondo Awards
To Vote Go To: www.RondoAward.com and follow the directions to get your votes in.
ABOUT THE RONDOS:
The Rondo Hatton Classic Horror Awards were created by David Colton and Kerry Gammill at the Classic Horror Film Boards in 2002. The awards are fan-based, and have no connection to any commercial sponsor. Anyone in fandom can vote or propose nominees.
The ‘Rondo’ award itself, shown at right, features a bust sculpted by illustrator Kerry Gammill, and cast by modeler Tim Lindsey.
The statuette is a miniature version of the bust of Hatton seen in the Universal film, HOUSE OF HORRORS (1946). The Rondos have been praised by recipients for their quiet beauty and evocation of classic horror.
Time to send out some Horror Birthday Love to Bobby “Boris” Pickett. Now sad to say, Bobby is no longer here, we can still remember all his works that have made Halloween a Party to remember every year. Mr. Pickett was born on February 11, 1938. He passed away in April of 2007, but still lives on in our hearts.
SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONSTER MASH KING
Bobby had a knack for doing an impression of the legendary actor Boris Karloff. His father, a theater owner encouraged him and helped drive his love of the golden age of Horror Films. This translated to him often doing an impression of Karloff during his time with the band the Cordials. It was there that the legend of the MONSTER MASH was born.
One of his bandmates told him he needed to do a whole song dedicated to the Horror Icon and so the writing of the song began. MONSTER MASH was written in about half an hour, and has since become the staple of Halloween, Trick or Treating and Parties around the world and of all time. Most of the sound effects were created by Pickett himself including the creaky door, a nail being pulled from a piece of wood, the boiling viles, Pickett blowing bubbles in a cup among others. This creative master piece went on to hit Number One on the Billboard Charts the week leading up to Halloween in 1962, 1970, and May of 1973!
Now as we know here at ROTTING FLESH RADIO, Pickett made entire albums full of campy, novelty Halloween Songs. Some of my personal favorites were Monsters Holiday, Wolfs Bane, Transylvania Twist and others. The LP remains in my collection today and I will never forget the time I was able to meet Bobby and talk with him about this classic era when Halloween was true Americana.
We have to give a thanks to both Scott from The Scarehouse and also Neat O Rama for this one.If you love horror and The Shining then you will want to decorate your walls with this one. The Shining Cuckoo Clock
Created by Chris Domino, this clock has Jack Nicholson’s head poking through the door every [...]
