Christopher Lee (Dracula, The Skull)—i'm not sure if he counts as a scrungle? he has a dignity to him i dont really associate with scrungle, but he was always doing deeply weird movies so maybe that counts?

Lionel Jeffries (Camelot, Chitty Chitty Chitty Bang Bang)—because of his early balding, Lionel Jeffries moved faster than most into nutty character parts and batty old men, including Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang, where he played the old  Grandpa despite being actually YOUNGER than his son in the movie (40-something Dick Van Dyke). I’ve been on a bender of watching his films lately and have now seen him send up uptight army discipliners; neurotic sea captains; daffy old grandpas; HG.Welles inventor types, and an insane old man in Camelot. In his later life he went on to direct Christmas classic The Railway Children, as well as my beloved The Amazing Mr. Blunden. If this competition is about character actors (which I think it is) he needs to be here. Thanks.

This is round 1 of the contest. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. If you're confused on what a scrungle is, or any of the rules of the contest, click here.

Academy Award-winning Jewish American songwriter Richard M. Sherman, one of the creative geniuses behind some of Walt Disney’s most iconic and timeless songs, died on Saturday at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills “due to age-related illness,” the Walt Disney Company announced. He was 95 years old.

The Walt Disney Company described Sherman as “one of the most prolific composer-lyricists in the history of family entertainment, and a key member of Walt Disney’s inner circle of creative talents.” The company added that it will announce at a later date its plans for celebrating Sherman’s life.

“Richard Sherman was the embodiment of what it means to be a Disney Legend, creating along with his brother Robert the beloved classics that have become a cherished part of the soundtrack of our lives,” said Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company. “From films like Mary Poppins and The Jungle Book to attractions like ‘It’s a Small World,’ the music of the Sherman Brothers has captured the hearts of generations of audiences. We are forever grateful for the mark Richard left on the world, and we extend our deepest condolences to his family.”

Sherman and his late brother, Robert B. Sherman, made up the songwriting team known as the Sherman Brothers. Together they wrote music for the 1964 film Mary Poppins, including “Chim Chim Cher-ee,” “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious,” “A Spoonful of Sugar,” and the lullaby “Feed the Birds.” The brothers won the Oscars for Best Score – Substantially Original and Best Original Song for “Chim Chim Cher-ee.” “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” made it on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1965 and “Feed the Birds” was one of Walt Disney’s favorite songs.

“You don’t get songs like ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ without a genuine love of life, which Richard passed on to everyone lucky enough to be around him,” said Pete Docter, chief creative officer of Pixar Animation Studios. “Even in his 90s he had more energy and enthusiasm than anyone, and I always left renewed by Richard’s infectious joy for life.”

Born on June 12, 1928, in New York City, Richard’s family relocated to Beverly Hills in 1937. He attended Beverly Hills High School and later studied music at Bard College. He was drafted into the United States Army and served as conductor for the Army band and glee club from 1953 to 1955.

Walt Disney hired the Sherman brothers as staff songwriters for The Walt Disney Studios after the success of their song “Tall Paul,” which sold more than 700,000 singles. The brothers together ultimately wrote more than 200 songs for some 27 Disney films and 24 television productions. Their credit included The Horsemasters (1961), The Absent-Minded Professor (1961), The Parent Trap (1961), Summer Magic (1963), The Sword in the Stone (1963), That Darn Cat! (1965), Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966), The Jungle Book (1967), The Happiest Millionaire (1967), The Aristocats (1970), Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971), and The Tigger Movie (1998). Richard later wrote new lyrics for the live-action The Jungle Book in 2016 and two years after appeared in the film Christopher Robin, for which he also composed three new songs.

The Sherman brothers also wrote music for Disney theme park attractions around the world, including “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow,” “The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room,” and “It’s a Small World.” In the early 1980s, they wrote songs for EPCOT and Tokyo Disneyland, including “One Little Spark” and “Meet the World.”

The Sherman brothers left The Walt Disney Studios in the early 1970s and went on to write music, songs, and screenplays for films such as Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968), Snoopy Come Home (1972), Charlotte’s Web (1973), The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1973), Huckleberry Finn (1974), and The Slipper and the Rose (1976).

In 1972, the duo became the only Americans to ever win 1st Prize at the Moscow Film Festival for their film musical The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, for which they wrote the script and music. The brothers were inducted as Disney Legends in 1990 and into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005. Three years later, the brothers were awarded the National Medal of the Arts.

In 2010, Richard and award-winning composer John Debney collaborated on the song “Make Way for Tomorrow Today” for Marvel Studios’��Iron Man 2.

Over the course of his 65-year career, Richard received nine Academy Award nominations, won three Grammys, and received 24 gold and platinum albums. Richard’s father, Al Sherman, was also a songwriter.

¡Salutaciones a todos!

Regresando a la nueva normalidad… un mundo ¿Diferente?, no sé a ustedes pero a mí me costó volver a la rutina. El mundo no tiene un mejor panorama, parece que en diferentes partes del mundo está reinando el caos y precisamente aquellos que deberían preservarla, son sus agentes. Queda de parte de nosotros no dejarnos cambiar y que esas ideas no hagan mella en nosotros, si lo hacen ya ganaron.

... ¡Sigo Viva!... Va a terminar de ser mi frase de vida… Otras vez me he retrasado con la fecha, sueño al algún día publicar en la fecha correspondiente.

En fin, este listado está conformado por canciones que estuve escuchando durante el pasado año, no necesariamente corresponden a ese año, algunas pertenecen a películas, series, juegos de video y memes, soy una gran fan de los BSO, BGM, OST... etc. Para escucharlas completas solo den click al título de la canción.

Espero que lo disfruten y sin más preámbulo (sin ningún orden de relevancia... tal vez un poco cronológica) ¡Las seleccionadas!

05.- Cracker Island - Cracker Island / Gorillaz ; Thundercat.

¡Volvieron! Y más presentes que nunca. ¿Deseas unirte?

06.- Espartaco y el sol bajo el mar (Les Mondes engloutis) - Espartaco y el sol bajo el mar / versión Ricardo Cubillos, Christian Lecaros, Soledad Guerrero y Nené Lecaros letra Scottie Scott (version original Mini-Star Vladimir Cosma).

17.- Bloody Mary (Speed Up) - Wednesday (Dance Scene - TikTok Remix) / Lady Gaga.

Imposible no escucharla, imposible de olvidarla.

Y esto fue todo amigos, por más que acercándose el peligro viene ya, debemos tratar de mantener la luz encendida en los momentos más oscuros, no podemos perder nuestra humanidad, no podemos perder la fe en las personas y seamos más cordiales entre nosotros, valoren y midan el impacto que puedan tener sus opiniones, no es justo por querer hacer justicia terminen destruyendo la vida a alguien. ¡Se tiene que hacer justicia, no venganza!

Repito lo mismo del año pasado, es una época que nos invita a ser empáticos, a valorar el conocimiento, a respetar a las personas y no subestimar el poder de las artes y que éstas no pierdan su norte por querer ajustarse a una agenda políticamente correcta. No toda crítica es un acto de odio y toda crítica debe tener base.

¡Hasta la próxima!

Join your faithful Grue Crew – Doc Rotten, Bill Mulligan, Chad Hunt, and Jeff Mohr – as they count the heart attacks while they continue their reverse trek through Hammer’s Karnstein Trilogy with Lust for a Vampire (1971).

In 1830, forty years to the day since the last manifestation of their dreaded vampirism, the Karnstein heirs use the blood of an innocent to bring forth the evil that is the beautiful Mircalla, or as she was in 1710, Carmilla.

  Director: Jimmy Sangster

Writers: Tudor Gates (screenplay); J. Sheridan Le Fanu (based on characters created by)

Selected Cast:

Barbara Jefford as Countess Herritzen

Suzanna Leigh as Janet Playfair

Michael Johnson as Richard Lestrange

Helen Christie as Miss Simpson

In the Seventies, Hammer Films struggled to find its way as horror films moved away from gothic horror into modern-day terrors; however, the company famous for Dracula and Frankenstein did earn some success with a trio of films referred to as The Karnstein Trilogy. The Grue Crew settles in to revisit the middle entry, Lust for a Vampire, which follows Vampire Lovers (1970) and leads into Twins of Evil (1971). Unfortunately, the film was plagued with misfortune from the onset: both Peter Cushing and Ingrid Pitt refused to return; the original director, Terence Fisher, suffered injuries when he was hit by a car and was replaced at the last minute by Jimmy Sangster; the director and the writer clashed with producers who insisted on including the pop song “Strange Love.” Even co-star Ralph Bates called the feature, “One of the worst films ever made.” Certainly, there must be some highlights. Certainly…

At the time of this writing, Lust for a Vampire is available to stream from  Shudder, AMC+, Tubi, and Flix Fling. The movie is also available on physical media as a Blu-ray from Shout! Factory.

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror two-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s. In two weeks, the next episode, chosen by Doc, will be Kingdom of the Spiders (1977). William Shatner and 5,000 spiders! What could go wrong?

Disney+'s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, set to debut its fourth and final season August 9, has always been unusually meta. Rather than continue with the plot and story of the original Disney Channel film trilogy, series creator and Broadway alum Tim Federle had a, perhaps, unlikely idea: a series set at the actual school where the original High School Musical movies were filmed that follows fictional "real" students as they mount their own production of High School Musical's stage adaptation.

Granted, it's hard to explain. But none of that mattered once the show premiered in 2019. Federle created a series that was able to both honor and lovingly drag the original franchise, all while putting his own spin on the uniquely hilarious world of high school theatre. As anyone who has been in one can attest, there is maybe no place where the stakes are higher than when mounting a high school musical.

"I always thought Waiting for Guffman was the model," said Federle, talking to us just days before the SAG-AFTRA strike began, as did all the actors who spoke with us for this piece. (Waiting for Guffman is, of course, director Christopher Guest's seminal cult-favorite, mockumentary-style film about a small Missouri town mounting an original musical that they spuriously believe might just be Broadway bound.) "There's something really funny about people putting on a show, because it feels so high stakes when it's you. And it's actually just a show."

And, Federle knows this first hand. Being a big-time TV writer is at least his fourth career, following performances on Broadway in the ensembles of Gypsy, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Little Mermaid, and Billy Elliot: The Musical; becoming a young adult novel writer, most famously of his Nate series; and writing the book to Broadway's 2016 musical Tuck Everlasting. Federle is a true theatre kid, and when he was assembling the team for his take on the High School Musical franchise, he looked for the same. 

"The ethos for the show was always, always 'bet on the underdogs—and always bet on theatre kids,'" says Federle. "So many of my heroes in the world come from the world of theatre. Theatre people are the best people. We 'smile when we are low.' Theatre teaches you how to show up for your scene partner and perform even if you're in a bad mood." That ethos led to the show becoming somewhat of a talent incubator. What began as a cast of relative unknown young actors in 2019 is, as of 2023, a group that counts international pop star sensations Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett and Tony-nominated Broadway Into the Woods star Julia Lester among its ranks. "These were all kids who grew up doing theatre, and I think that that really paid off in the show because they brought not just that talent, but also that work ethic. Now we're chasing them around the world as they are nominated for and winning things and going on world tours," Federle shares proudly.

Julia Lester, poised to follow up her stage successes in Broadway's Into the Woods and Center Theatre Group's The Secret Garden with an Off-Broadway turn in a revival of I Can Get it For You Wholesale, naturally agrees. "I think the show from day one has been sort of set up to be this very authentic look into real theatre kids lives," she says. "I think just from day one, getting to be a part of this, and being a real theatre kid brought something to the show that I think sort of gave it its magic."

Federle has insured that this take on High School Musical is fully authentic to the theatre kid experience, which in 2023 means the show features several openly queer characters. In 2019, that seemed like a natural choice and easy to celebrate. In the political climate of 2023, it has become a brave, bold, and vital choice. Queer people and queer stories are the newest punching bag at schools across the nation, but the kids at High School Musical's East High are learning the importance of living their truth—and of finding and cultivating safe spaces. As many queer kids know, the drama club is often one of the better examples of that.

"I love the way our show has handled the queer storylines," says Frankie A. Rodriguez, who plays Carlos—one of East High's queer students—on the series. "It's all about we champion you for being who you are, and we encourage it. It's amazing to have not had that growing up and now literally be it. It's been very special." And it's not just the "real" kids of East High. In Federle's vision of the High School Musical franchise, the very queer coded but ultimately closeted Ryan from the original film series, played by Lucas Grabeel, has become officially queer, kissing his male partner on screen in the season's opening moments.

"I hope those audience members who are questioning or discovering or hiding understand that there's always room for them at the table of theatre kids—whether they literally join theatre or not," Federle says. "The lesson of this show is if you can find one mentor to take your hand and say I see you, you're no longer alone, and the world needs you—you're going to find your people."

Speaking of Lucas Grabeel's return to the series, the show's fourth and final season is leaning even more into the meta spirit in which it was created. The eight episodes track the "real" kids of East High as they mount a production of High School Musical 3: Senior Year while a [sadly fictional for now] High School Musical 4 reunion movie is being filmed on campus. That last bit gave the series the perfect opportunity to bring in some exciting cameos from the High School Musical OGs, including Grabeel, Broadway favorite Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman, Bart Johnson, and Kaycee Stroh.

But there's another High School Musical cameo that will—or at least should—be the most important to Playbill readers: Alyson Reed. Perhaps best known as the cell phone-hating, eccentric East High drama teacher Ms. Darbus, Reed is bonafide Broadway royalty from a generation or two ago. She made her Broadway debut in the original run of Bob Fosse's Dancin' and went on to appear in a string of Broadway shows. She starred as Marilyn Monroe in the short-lived 1983 non-Smash Monroe biomusical Marilyn, and Sally Bowles in the first Broadway revival of Cabaret, sharing the stage with Joel Grey as he reprised his Tony- and Oscar-winning performance as The Emcee. Reed also played Cassie on the national tour of A Chorus Line, and when the 1985 film adaptation rolled around, she was tapped to bring her performance to the screen.

High School Musical's young fans might not be as aware of Reed's pre-Ms. Darbus pedigree, but with true Broadway fan Federle in charge, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is, of course, making sure to change that. "When she was on set with the kids, they, of course, know her as as Ms. Darbus, but I sat them in a circle and I was like, 'We're going to pull up YouTube, and you are going to watch her do "Let Me Dance for You" [Cassie's big number in the Chorus Line film].' We watched her performance, and they were gagged." In Federle's High School Musical universe, Reed has taken her rightful spot as the franchise's biggest star and the most pivotal character of the High School Musical 4 reunion film. 

"When she looks you in the eyes, you get chills," says Rodriguez of his scenes with Reed. "She should wear a crown 24/7. People should kiss her feet," adds Lester.

Federle has educated the children.

Some of the Sherman Brothers' best known songs were incorporated into live action and animation musical films including Mary Poppins, The Happiest Millionaire, The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Snoopy Come Home, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, The Slipper and the Rose, and Charlotte's Web. Their most well known work is "It's a Small World (After All)", written for the theme park attraction of the same name. According to Time, it may be the most publicly performed song in history.
