What Ever Happened to Bette & Joan? Episode 5 – Berserk! & The Nanny

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BETTE & JOAN? EPISODE 5 – BERSERK! & THE NANNY
Welcome to another episode of What Ever Happened to Bette & Joan?, our ongoing journey on late-era Bette Davis & Joan Crawford. This week, we head across the pond to England for a pair of British chillers starring our two legendary leading ladies. After 1964’s Strait-Jacket and Dead Ringer proved to be hits for Davis & Crawford, the image of the two actresses as horror icons was all but cemented. Filmmakers of the genre were eager to strike while the iron was hot, resulting in both stars spending even more time in the world of horror with 1965’s The Nanny and 1967’s Berserk! In the latter, Crawford stars as the owner of a circus whose performers continue to meet grisly ends, while in the former, Davis leads the story of a London nanny with a seemingly powerful hold on the family who employs her. The Mistress of Mayhem herself, horror hostess Roxy Midnite, joins me as Grande Dame Guignol puts on a British accent for this pair of English thrill fests.

YOUR HOST

Frank Calvillo (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad, What Ever Happened to Bette & Joan?)
Born and raised in South Texas, Frank currently lives in Austin and has been in love with movies ever since his father showed him some Three Stooges shorts when he was five years old. Today he loves all kinds of film, regardless of era, country, budget or genre. He believes every film has an audience and is at least one person’s favorite movie. After writing for Sight & Sound and Slackerwood, he now writes for Cinapse where his increasingly random taste in all flavors of cinema (from Rashomon to Mars Attacks!) continues to thrive. His ultimate goal is to write a script for his boyhood crush, Michelle Pfeiffer.
