Creature Features

A classic staple for kids in the 80s and early 90s. Join us as we delve into this film with top notch actors, amazing effects, and a depth of story-telling.

A book by Jules Verne with effects by Ray Harryhausen, this ones a no-brainer. We had to do it.

This is only our second kaiju film (Gorgo, being the first), and our very first in the long-running Godzilla franchise from Toho.

We thought that we'd review another film featuring the effects of David Allen and produced by Full Moon Features. The 90s staple of video store kid films: Prehysteria!

This film's production history is almost more interesting than the film itself: almost 3 decades after filming wrapped, the movie was finished and released into the world. Join us as we take a look at The Primevals - the "lost" film of David Allen.

You all know how we feel about The Howling 3: The Marsupials, but now, we go back to the start of the franchise and give the original a go.

We watched this film and are officially the April Fools for this April 1st episode. Listen as we discuss why is it called a godmonster? Why are we still watching this? Why do they keep saying that guy's name?

Bog from 1979 is a film that defies explanation, and not in a good way. Our review is more entertaining than the film and only half as long. Listen along as we take you through Bog.

This film launched a 7-film and TV show empire, starring Kevin Bacon, Fred Ward, Michael Gross, and Reba McEntire. Join us as we venture to Perfection and their unique subterranean wildlife.

From 1964, we review our first official Hammer horror film from the UK Powerhouse. Creature Features legend, Peter Cushing stars alongside Christopher Lee, Barbara Shelley, and Patrick Troughton in this great gothic horror.

This 1991 made for TV movie gives us an HP Lovecraft that is a detective in LA where everyone uses magic except him. This hard-boiled horror fantasy comedy is something else entirely.

We feature another film starring 2 Creature Features alumni: Peter Cushing and Doug McClure in an adaptation of Edgar Rice Burrough's At the Earth's Core. This one has so many creatures we lose count.

Corey Haim and Gary Busey at his Busey-est team up to to take on a werewolf in this Stephen King adaptation.

One of the founding partners of ILM provided special effects for this early 70s film. An early example of the cabin in the woods movies. Listen in to hear what we thought.

In 1968, Peter Cushing starred in a film that tried to imitate the Hammer Horror formula. Join us to see if The Blood Beast Terror can accomplish it's lofty goal.

Cirio Santiago created this film in 1987. The Demon in Paradise is definitely something unique. Listen along and see if you agree.

As promised for this second part of our anniversary extravaganze, we're going to look back at two lake/river/ocean monster movies and give them a new lease on life.

This is our 25th episode and marks our 1 year anniversary as a podcast! Rather than bring you a new movie, we decided to spend this month, looking back over the past 24 movies and picking 4 that we rated pretty low, and take a stab at remaking them. Our 2 choices for tonight, Seth will reimagine The Howling 3 (our lowest reviewed film to date), and Caralyn puts a fresh wind beneath Q - The Winged Serpent.

SPOILERS in this episode.

In 1972, the world was introduced to Gargoyles and the start to a great career from future Special FX guru Stan Winston. A guilty pleasure film from my childhood, we'll explore the creatures and quick paced story from this TV movie of the week experience.
