So, back to German pulp covers. I looked at Chad R's list of everything we watched on T-Fest weekend and realized we barely watched anything with a monster it. It wouldn't be until Monday night, after like 10 more movies, that we showed Ship of Monsters for those who hadn't seen it. And I've…

Wow, already a week plus since T(ween) Fest 14. As veteran readers--i.e., all of you--will have gleaned by now, we start watching movies before the actual Saturday fest. We didn't watch anything in Houston this year, but as soon as we hit Dallas on the Fest eve the films started. The first was the…

I'm back! Another Tween Fest in the books. Next year will mark the 20th (!) annual T-Fest and the 15th annual Tween-Fest. We have big plans going. I'll start running through what we watched last weekend tomorrow. Today I mark one of the two great philosophers I have based my life on. (The other,…

OOH!! OOH!! German pulp sci-fi covers. Neat! Have a great weekend, everyone. Watch something stupid.  

Loch Ness. Who knew? (Funny that in Britain the monster came from the sea, but in Germany....)

We ended on our usual kaiju film. I picked Gamera Super Monster because its so damn goofy. Pleasingly, Chad first say Gamera vs Jiger on the multi-film disc menu, and got very excited. His cries of pain upon realizing which film we were actually watching were pretty sweet. That said, as objectively awful as…
