Shocktober's First Video Daily Double

Welcome to the Shocktober version of Video Daily Double. For the next month, I've selected a handful of videos from all corners of the horror universe to thrill, chill, and delight you. For our first installment, I thought we'd jump back to the last review of September, The Baron of Arizona. While Vincent Price was quite watchable in the film, I'd wager that most of you know him better for his horror films, an association he played up until his death in 1993.

Our videos today come from vintage TV spots where Price did just that, sometimes in the strangest of ways...

Video one finds the Master of Macabre selling Polaroid Videocassettes:



and our second video is a spot for the Easter Seal's "Safe Halloween Coupons":



Stay tuned, kiddos. From exercise videos to beer commercials, you never can tell where icons of horror will turn up...
