Ep. 168: Tod Browning & Lon Chaney Double Bill- The Unholy Three (1925) & The Unknown (1927)
About this episode
Zach ventures to the Dark Carnival of cinema that was the collaboration of Tod Browning & Lon Chaney as he and guests Sterling Cook (Tour de Tati) and filmmaker Jake Algier (Writer/Actor/Performer, Doctor Tenn) unpack THE UNHOLY THREE (1925) and THE UNKNOWN (1927)
Join the trio as they learn a bit more about the formation of the collaboration, unpack production stories that range from the heartfelt to the absolute craziest, and settle upon how this combo managed to create films that not only work today but also influenced the works of others as the history of cinema has progressed.
