Monster of the Day #3385

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…

Following La Marca del Muertos we watched Wheels of Fire, a pretty generic Italian post-apocalypse rip-off of Mad Max, of which they made like a million. This one was fine, although really, these things sort of run together. There's some cars with welded on armor, guns with weirdly lots of ammo, dubbing, still acting,…

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,…

Off to Texas!

Consider this your hangout space for a week. See some of you in Dallas this weekend, for the rest, take care and watch something stupid. Ta!

About out the door to do four hours of work, then off to the airport to catch my flight to Houston. (Going to Dallas on Friday.) So last MotD for a week. Enjoy!

Monster of the Day #3380

Getting ready to leave tomorrow for Houston and ultimately suburban Dallas. Whew! This looks familiar. Is it a recycled American cover? The only argument against it is that I've looked at a bunch of these covers and they rarely feature (sexy) women, which was comparatively rare for the American pulps. Still love this stuff,…

Monster of the Day #3379

This picture itself is a spoiler, so...sorry. We had a small (but great) crowd on Friday's Watch Party, so I picked something short and sweet. I hadn't seen The Vampire Bat since I was a kid, and only vaguely remembered it as another poverty row cheapie. That largely proved incorrect. It wasn't a lavish…
