In the genre of horror, the females mostly always rule. Men still love Elvira, Vampira, Debbie Rochon, and the rest of the legendary brood, and Penny Dreadful carries this legacy with a New England series that excels at showing truly awful films.<\/p>\n<p>Penny Dreadful\u2019s smexxiness otherwise cushions the blow of the garbage like \u201cThe Beast of Yucca Flats,\u201d and it\u2019s a suggested little horror series where you can find it on Public Access. \u201cShilling Shockers\u201d is obviously a series that derives from the formula of \u201cHorrible Horror\u201d and \u201cMystery Science Theater,\u201d in which our hostess, Penny Dreadful, has some fun with props, entertains us with some funny commentary, and introduces a bad film.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->All of this is helped by a awfully low tech special effects, but then, this is an ode to those old time horror shows, so it\u2019s a basic entertaining pre-requisite. The group here just excel at providing a proper throwback to the shows of the bygone era where these shows were an experience, and one that built some truly adoring horror fans. The people at &#8220;Penny Dreadful&#8221; are continuing this legacy and doing a bang up job of it. Penny Dreadful though is the highlight of the series, as she bears a stunning resemblance to Karen Black, and will surely induce a laugh or two from the audience. She has a surefire sense of humor about herself, and strives for double takes, and over the top acting that makes the show a blast.<\/p>\n<p>In one episode, Penny straps a man down and makes him watch \u201cThe Beast of Yucca Flats,\u201d thanks to him sending a nasty letter to Penny. This is obviously all in the vein of \u201cMystery Science Theater,\u201d but the introductions, and the small intermissions are funny, and Dreadful is just fun to watch in presence personality, and appearance. The series has a genuine novelty to it, that will really act as a flash of memories for folks who just enjoyed the old time television series where horror was the centerpiece.<\/p>\n<p>The humor is also helped by Garou and Manfred, her co-stars who help in the mischief, and are all around hilarious characters, and this is a series that\u2019s meant for the folks who want to relive those late night horror shows, or at least want to see what a genuine horror show with goofy antics, and a wacky host is like. I enjoyed it, I have to say. The goofballs behind \u201cPenny Dreadful\u2019s Shilling Shockers\u201d are rather entertaining to watch, and even though I had to endure the bad movies, this is a series fit for a following. A hot and hilarious host, and two zany sidekicks makes a cult series, and one worthy of the attention. Stop looking for a successor Elvira, your replacements are right here.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shillingshockers.com\/\"><strong>Visit Penny Dreadful and her Gruesome gang Here, and Purchase DVD&#8217;s of her entire episodes and seasons!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Penny Dreadful is a hot hunk of woman, and in a world where Elvira, Zacharly, Joe Bob Briggs, Dr. Demento and many other folks helped to ease the pain of horrible movies, Penny Dreadful and her friends could be the carrier of the torch.
