Monster Chiller Horror Theatre: Dr. Tongue's Evil House of Wax

Count Floyd, the howling vampire host of Monster Chiller Horror Theatre, promotes this week's midnight movie with a handful of scenes from Dr. Tongue's Evil House of Wax. A young woman touring a wax museum notices that one exhibit looks suspiciously like a recently murdered girl, while the bespectacled Dr. Tongue lurks nearby, rants about being called mad and summons his hunched servant Bruno, who turns up clutching a cockatoo. The clips build to a 3-D "thrill" in which an argument over snacks at a shop counter ends with potato chips flung at the camera. Back in his crypt, Floyd insists the effects leap right off the screen and urges viewers to mail him eighteen dollars for the special glasses.

This promo marked the first appearance of Dr. Tongue and his assistant Bruno, who became fixtures of Monster Chiller Horror Theatre. The episode first aired on 31 October 1977.
