THE COUNTDOWN TO HALLOWEEN: DAY 17

(Dracula: The Muppet Musical)


In the Jason Segel comedy about a man who just can't seem to get over his breakup with a semi-famous actress entitled FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL, Segel's characters' dream is to put on a muppet musical about Dracula.  Strange but true, Jason is a huge Muppets fan and that's even more evident in the Muppets revival film that came out a few years after this production simply called THE MUPPETS.  Jason wrote and starred in it opposite Amy Adams.


And since I'd all but forgotten about this until scanning about yesterday for Dracula films, I thought I'd share some moments from the production, which is surprisingly entertaining...

Firstly, his friend gets him to sing part of it for a captive audience...


Here's the production with full cast, what we get to see anyway...


When Jason was out promoting the film, he did this number on the LATE LATE SHOW with Craig Ferguson...

Good ol' Hokey Halloween fun!


That's all for tonight, but as a parting gift I give you Halloween on Sesame Street c/o Jack Davis
