See, this makes you want to watch the movie, but it's a trap.

I'd say you can't go wrong with cheesy, homemade-looking dinos. But ask the people who were at T-Fest when I showed The Mighty Gorga. Still, for that one magical minute, it was the best film ever made.

Have I really never featured this beastie before? Ah, well, if I have, it wasn't this picture anyway. This is obviously inspired by my entirely satisfactory viewing of Kong Skull Island over the weekend. Meanwhile, today's featured film has been sitting on my DVD shelf unwatched for over a decade, so maybe it's time…

I was going to see Kong Skull Island on Saturday, but it was raining cats and dogs and I couldn't bring myself to leave the house. Sunday was better, though, so I grabbed the early show. I had a BLAST. The two hour run time is pleasingly lean. Moreover, the film has learned from…

Here we see Stanley trying to more overtly ape an Eerie Publications mag. They've amped up the 'sex' a bit, but still are skipping the gore. I still love how amateurish the art is. This is fanzine-level stuff, and not high grade fanzine. Still, nothing's more terrifying than a (I guess) monster with a…

Astoundingly, it looks like in the early '70s someone was doing even shoddier horror comics than Eerie Publications. Also, I'm not sure as to how original their covers were. This one seems slightly familiar. Oh, yeah. That maybe might be what I was thinking of. If you sorta squint....

I think I like this poster more than I did the actual movie. Although they seem to have used the off-model Godzilla from the Godzilla vs the Thing poster art. Anyway, I had this piece leftover from last week do to my Imgur issues, since solved. Thanks, Imgur! I hope everyone had a good…

More Gorosaurus than Godzilla, but a neat poster nonetheless. The first Godzilla movie I saw in a theater, and man was I disappointed.
