Monster of the Day #3446

OK, it's 1958. You're the typical 10 year old boy being dropped off at the Saturday matinee, so that your mom can have you out of her hair for three or four hours. You're a savvy vet already; you know the movies are never as good as the poster makes them work. Still, if…

Hmm. Serviceable, I guess, but kind of boring. Doesn't even really establish the giant scorpion thing. Not sure this would have gotten me in the cinema, sans a trailer or something. Luckily, we always have lurid, painted foreign poster art to properly exploit the monster and..... Huh.

Well, this one is of rather lower quality than Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, that's for sure. It's 90% oater, and 10% dinosaur. Still, if you hang in long enough, you get a pretty fun rampage from a dino with a Gene Simmons tongue. I give them credit for going stop-motion anyway, kind of a…

Who doesn't love stop-animated animation? Sure, there was the occasional prop-created monsters that were terrific, like Them! Or fantastic suits, like in The Land Unknown. (Actually, Land Unknown had both great suit monsters *and* great prop monsters.) Still, stop-animated monsters just really scratch an itch like nothing else. I can't imagine any kid of…

Her real complaint is, "skeletons don't make a lot of money. Look at this cheap ass ring!" (Also, dude, clearly you're wearing a toupee--you're a skeleton.) Happy Friday Eve, everyone.

That's not as impressive of a skeleton as it looks. That's the Tidy Bowl Man out on a date.* (*Tidy Bowl Man. That's still a topical reference, right? The kids still know who that is, right?)

Watch Party moved to Aug 11th…

Hey, everyone. Turns out I have plans a week from Friday, so I'll be delaying the next watch party until Aug 11th. I'm sincerely sorry about this. I know everyone is chomping at the bit to watch Lucifer Complex II.

Someday Jennifer Lawrence will also pioneer women in comic books having agency, just like she did in action movies. Until then, well, I guess we get this stuff. Also, are these the same two chumps from yesterday's cover? Yeesh.

Michael Jackson finally did one surgery too many. "Oh, and also, a man with a skull head is running towards us with a huge dagger.  So after gawking at the talking heads, also look at that, I guess. Also, I just bought this dress and now it's got a rip in it!" "Screw you,…
