Monster of the Day

The third film was my favorite this year, Shack Out on 101. It's set in a seedy diner and is a '50s anti-Commie espionage film. I've heard about this for years, and actually bought it on DVD a while ago, but hadn't gotten around to watching it. It is...weird. Like all of the sudden…

OK, so B-Fest 2025. We had a small group; it was me and Chad R. To my delight, though, Andrew Borntreger of Badmovies.Org, who I must not have seen for 20 years (man, I'm old), attended with his friend Todd, who was an absolutely terrific guy with a great sense of humor. So that…

"Also...hey, wait? Are you guys DEAD?! I think you are!! And I'm a doctor, so I should know!!!" Seriously, though, I love these covers.

See, the car has no mandatory rear camera. Man, the editor of this book knew what he was doing. This book probably would have run for years if not for the creation of the Comic Code. Stupid Comics Code.

Friday's Watch Party was 1974's The land that Time Forgot (although Amazon has it under The People that Time Forgot!), a film I saw as a ten year old at the Pickwick theater. Still love it, and it really holds up. Great Boy's Adventure film, up there with 1961's Mysterious Island. The dinosaurs are…

I'm not sure they had a clear through line for this cover. Love it, though. Watch Party tomorrow!

Man, all these "Two Guys and a Truck" knock-offs are getting out of hand. Although, let's be real, this is the one I'd hire.

I feel seen! If I were crawling out of a steamer trunk (and I mean, now, when I'm technically alive), it would be exactly this painful and awkward looking. Only with a lot more wheezing. Watch Party this Friday...before a three week break. B-Fest the weekend after this (!!!) and Basement Fest the weekend…

When you think about it, this is basically the decision Anna Nicole Smith made.* (*Another of Ken's extremely contemporary references.)
