THEIR LURKING PRESENCE

Upon due and mature consideration, I think that I would be horrible at interrogating Eastern European baddies. Of which there must be an awful lot, because all the television shows from the sixties that weren't Westerns or Coming Of Age dramas were filled with them.

Seemingly they had taken over Hollywood.
Slinking around in trenchcoats.
Or comic opera uniforms.

We can probably blame Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff for that.
In order to counter vampires, we learn from Hong Kong movies to spread glutinous rice grains around on the floor. It burns them, you see.

"But what if they're different vampires?"

Well, okay, if they're Irish, spread sweet potatoes around.

"Yeah no, I'm not gonna carry around an entire produce market."


I'd probably be hell to have around for vampires or Eastern European baddies.
I would keep making fun of their ridiculous accents.
