    Mixing vampire humor and 1970s tropes (like pet rocks, lava lamps, disco music, bell-bottom pants, mirror balls, and of course mood rings), the web series Grave Mood Rings pokes fast fun at classic slow-moving Gothic soap operas like Dark Shadows and the Canadian series Strange Paradise. In addition to a vampiric Viscount, a castle is home to a groovy Doctor (a phlebotomist, naturally), a jolly housekeeper with her own laugh track, a werewolf Vicar, and an arch-nemesis riddler wearing a Sphinx mask. Corny wordplay, the occasional bizarre sing-a-long, and haunted doughnuts punctuate the proceedings, in the tradition of the sketch comedy of MadTV, Kids in the Hall, and SCTV.

    I LOVED this! I see a vulnerable side of the Viscount I have not seen before. Enchanting!

      Oh, another surprise? Well, given that my goal is to /continually/ entertain, I'm glad that a new one popped up in between secret links. We'll have another secret link for you later this afternoon or early evening. It's another viewer participation thing, inspired by Fred "Screaming Skull" Bitter.

    Bryan Ferry would die to cover this if he heard it. (Well, not literally.) I suspect Roxy Music watched Grave Mood Rings between gigs in the 70s. This performance more than makes up for the Viscount’s absence in the previous GMR.

      What an amazing comment, Ken! We're honored! Several of our favorite bands were highly influenced by Roxy Music, and I can see our (albeit unconscious) homage to Bryan Ferry in the Viscount's performance here.

    Your voice is fitting, but please take out this bit frame, it would sound so lovely better and in so in harmony....... everything is nearly perfect for this one......

    • @ProfessorOddfellow
      @ProfessorOddfellow  Před 12 dny +1

      Bit frame? Do you mean the vampire teeth? Of course we sing with the teeth for the vampire's songs (as opposed to regular Neons Gone Mad tracks) because nobody else ever does that and the speech impediment is part of our vampire characterization and humor. Otherwise, no other vocal processing was used here.

      @@ProfessorOddfellow The teeth doesnt please your voice.... I think it's nicer without.... (my opinion, only for the voice, not the acting ) ^^

    • @ProfessorOddfellow
      @ProfessorOddfellow  Před 12 dny

      Yeah, the teeth are a deliberate characterization choice. Virtually no vampire film has had a vampire's speech slurred (as it would naturally be) by the false teeth, so it's something we have to do for the comedic value as well as for the uniqueness of the song vocals. But we have nearly 100 Neons Gone Mad songs without the teeth.😁

      @ProfessorOddfellow  Před 12 dny

      In this still-unpublished video, a different character sings (same actor, though), so the teeth aren't part of the performance: czcams.com/video/u-CmX9FYLVI/video.html
