Monster of the Day #1960

Sorry, I didn't get my roundtable piece done (neither did anyone else), so I'm going to shoot for next weekend. Please contribute a piece if you would like. Any length is fine, it doesn't have to be a big review or anything. This is another short week for me, as I took off Thursday…

Monster of the Day #1959

It's hard to find a good still from this one, which is weird, because the print on Amazon Prime is quite good and shows the monster pretty cleanly. I guess an old DVD copy or something must have been lousy. Anyway, I'll write up a few notes on this one and post it as…

Monster of the Day #1958

You'd think with all the anime I'm watching I'd give Lily C.A.T. a go this weekend for our Amazon Prime round table (email me your pieces at ken@jabootu.com!). Well, no. I just don't particularly like sci-fi anime, especially dark sci-fi anime. Speaking, after being denied on several occasions this year due to snow storms…

Monster of the Day #1957

I've never watched Revenge of Dr X, despite the fact that it has a bad rubber monster suit and was written by Ed Wood (!). So I think this is the weekend. Thanks, Amazon Prime!

Amazon Prime round table….

Hey, with the holiday this week, it might be a good time to have an Amazon Prime round table. If you have Prime, just pick one of the zillions of flicks of all genres and eras and send me your thoughts. If you don't have Prime, just watch anything you want and do the…

Monster of the Day #1956

Man, Amazon Prime really is like an old, big, disorganized video rental place. Wander the shelves and enjoy the crap! (Good stuff, too, but who cares about that?) Last week I featured Queen Crab, the Brett Piper film that features stop-animated giant crabs. Prime also offers Arachnia, the Piper film that features stop-animated giant…

Monster of the Day #1955

Looking for a Prime (get it?) hunk of cheese to watch this weekend. How about Terror on London Bridge. Remember when they bought the London Bridge and moved it to Arizona? Of course, the first thing EVERYBODY thought was "Let's make a movie where the soul of Jack the Ripper is trapped in the…

Monster of the Day #1954

A lame Robocop rip-off fighting jumping Chinese vampires? Oh, Godfrey Ho, you magnificent bastard. Brought to you, of course, by Amazon Prime.

Coming (Briefly) to a Theater Near You: The Muppet Movie

TCM will be showing The Muppet Movie in theaters on Thursday July 25th and Tuesday July 30th. You can check out the Fathom Events website if you wish to scope out a venue near to you. Also, get ready to be depressed: They are showing it to mark the film’s 40th (!!!!) anniversary. (Also…

Monster of the Day #1953

Sorry about yesterday, my Internet went down (highly annoying) although at least it wasn't an issue for a week like last time. Still on Amazon Prime movies. People here know I have a hyper-wide definition of spoilers, like being told something has a twist ending is a spoiler. So yes, I'm showing the end…
