Watch Party tonight!

I do want to say, though, that the movie I'm showing tonight is normally not the one I'd be showing tonight, by which I mean right after School for Unclaimed Girls. It's not the same thing, but usually I really like to switch things up and so normally I'd be picking a goofy monster…

Monster of the Day #3538

Having trouble with Imgur again. i couldn't upload a new image, so pausing the Corman poster thing. These are nice, though, and I already had it uploaded. The issue might clear itself up; it often does. In any case, Happy Friday! Have a great weekend. Watch something stupid. Perhaps with us tonight at the…

Monster of the Day #3537

If YouTube had existed back in the day there definitely would have been a channel dedicated to comparing what the poster promised and what the movie delivered. Even so, again, at least with Corman's films you got surprisingly decent film making and generally a witty script and decent to very good acting.

Monster of the Day #3534

I have to admit, I don't remember much about this one. Were there (stock footage) dinosaurs in it, or is this a really out there interpretation of the Night of the Blood Beast suit used as the film's "monster." I do know I was never the world's biggest Robert Vaughn fan, and even as…

Monster of the Day #3532

"Hey, doc, can you help me? I've had this coffin' in my chest." I can't put my finger on it, but I really like this poster for some reason.

Monster of the Day #3531

One thing I've noticed is that although movie posters for cheapie monster movies are notorious for exaggerating the monsters to make them look more amazing, AIP didn't bother with that for Paul Blaisdell monsters. They presented them more or less as they appeared in the films, because, you know, they were actually amazing already.
