See Hear Podcast Episode 23 - Kiss Meets The Phantom Of The Park (redux) - a podcast by Bernard Stickwell, Tim Merrill, Maurice Bursztynski

Time to get your
facepaint on, dig out the platform shoes and fake chest hair, and arm yourselfwith your love gun…..Yep, the See Hear crew are back to discuss the
Hanna-Barbera production, KISS Meets The Phantom of the Park. 

Bernard, Tim, andMaurice are privileged to be joined by Mike White of the brilliant Projection
Booth podcast to talk about the cultural phenomenon that was KISS in the 1970s.What does any self-respecting pop culture icon do? Why, make a quick cash-in
film, of course!!!! Is this film in the same league as A Hard Day’sNight? Ummmm……..not exactly….

 The film is set in
an amusement park where KISS are going to perform a series of concerts, butthey are at the mercy of a mad scientist (do films have any other kind?) who
clones KISS to….ummmm…..take over the amusement park. 

As well as thefilm, we talk about KISS as a band, Paul Stanley’s delightful concert banter,
and how would they have fared if they’d never put on the makeup and cod-piecesat the start. We find connections to the Marx Brothers, Spinal Tap, and Gilbert
Gottfried’s favourite Vincent Price movie (att: Frank Santopadre). Tune in andfind out how we weave it all in.
