Monster of the Day

I'm assuming this is the pet of the Atomic Submarine monster. UPDATE: Here's a better long shot of the same beastie. It sure is cute!

Has there been a monster movie that's been a patch on this one in the last 22 years? I don't think so. The three sequels are all pretty entertaining as well, a rarity. Never saw the TV show.

Like Joan Rivers and Michael Jackson, that Horror of Party Beach guy just went to the plastic surgery well way too often.

"Quick, Henry, the Space-Flit!"

Really should have been better. I mean, it was OK, but meh.  

When Tequila goes horribly, horribly wrong. As for the below, I almost used it as a separate MotD, but couldn't bring myself to do it. It's not even another 'stage' of the monster, ala Alien, but rather just the fully revealed beastie. So I'll add it here.

Interesting / insane story; this movie was made by South Korean director Shin Shek-ok, of whom Kim Jong-il (then son of the current ruler) so admired he had him kidnapped and brought to North Korea to make movies. The film, unsurprisingly, is a thinly veiled attack on capitalism. Of course, so is nearly everything…

Some of Korea's biggest film stars reacted with deep sorrow to the news of Kim Jong-Il's death.

Nom nom nom.

No one said being a Monster Dentist would be easy. And let's not even get into the 'spit' part.
