Paul Williams - The Hell of it

A handful of vintage Don Post Studios masks can be seen in this video including a Skull, Mr. Hyde, and Old Vampire...

  1. Interesting! That appears to be some sort of television episode, though I'm not sure what the show is. I'm a big fan of this particular ditty, as it was originally featured in the film Phantom of the Paradise. Looks like Williams got some more mileage out of the tune, as it also appeared on a Brady Bunch variety show!

    Cool to see all those Post masks in the crowd!

  2. A dandy song from a fabulous flick (PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE). Any relation? Is that Lorne Green, Peter Lorre and John Carradine at 1:01?

  3. Good eye John! It's hard to tell for sure from the low resolution video, but it sure looks like them.

  4. It's definitely Green, and it does appear to be Lorre and Carradine.

  5. It's from the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, season 2 episode 1 Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula. The whole episode is on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTuMlQqxMu4&feature=share&list=PLA5F717B1C70DB8DE
