Monster of the Day #3321

So...could Cthulhu destroy Ro-Man, or rather the Ro-Men? It's harder to say than you might think. After all, a single Ro-Man (effectively) destroyed the entire human race. He survived direct hits from atomic bombs as he routed the planet. And there's an entire race of them up on the moon. Or was it Mars?…

Monster of the Day #3320

This is GalaxyJane's dog cat (thanks, BC!) hanging out with what our elite demographic recognizes as a genuine celebrity. And yes, I am doxxing GJ's dog for clicks. That's how you make that big Internet money. These are clicks, right? I'm not really up on this social media stuff. My main question: Is that…

Monster of the Day #3318

I just told this anecdote, but it bears repeating. I was in Texas and mulling how dumb the characters in Ghosthouse were. As Sandy was right there, I asked for his opinion on the matter: Was there ever a movie with a dumber set of characters than the ones in Ghosthouse. He briefly considered…

Monster of the Day #3316

So...I looked for a still from Deep Blood, but the entertaining mock shark they built for the film is generally shrouded in murk, so as to keep us from getting very good looks at it. Booooo! Also, they cut in a lot of live footage of various other sharks, all meant to represent this…

Monster of the Day #3315

I mentioned Undying Monster this weekend, as I'd just bought the Kino Lorber Blu Ray. So this post is a complete troll, because this is basically all the wolfman action you get in the film. If you watch it as an Old Dark House movie, it's fine, but as a werewolf movie it's more…

Ken’s Recent Purchases…Please Vote

Why don't you all vote and I'll try (if I still can after all these years) to review whatever the highest vote getter is from the list below. Let's say I'll have the piece up by the end of January, just to give myself some sort of deadline. DVDs I mostly bought DVDS because…

Ken is happy (Warning: Anime content)….

  Although not among the very best isekai (transported to another world) animes, Overlord is right up at the top of the second tier, I think. And if not the best one, it's nonetheless my favorite. Many younger anime fans love it but heavily criticize the sometimes jenky CGI. Although I am known as…
