INTERVIEW: Joyce Meadows on The Brain from Planet Arous (1957)
In the beloved cult classic The Brain from Planet Arous (1957), an evil brain from outer space inhabits the body of an atomic scientist to plot world domination. Of course, the sinister brain is also very interested in the love interest, played by Joyce Meadows. Sixty-five years after it was made, The Brain from Planet Arous is now available on a beautiful Blu-Ray from The Film Detective, with Meadows (now 89) participating in the extras.
In this special interview episode, Will speaks to Joyce Meadows about the craft she brought to low-budget 1950s cinema, her films with William Castle and Edward L. Cahn, and the reason she stepped away from Hollywood.
