Beloved friend of the podcast and Video Vulture John Tebbutt is back, and he's got a doozy for Dan and Keith. Schlock king Roger Corman unites Mission: Impossible's Peter Graves, iconic western villain Lee Van Cleef, and B-movie queen Beverly Garland for the sci-fi thriller, question mark, It Conquered the World, in which a Venusian alien lures an Earth scientist into helping it seize control of our world, and only the scientist's wife and best friend can turn him away from his alien pal. The following decade, a much less iconic schlock filmmaker changed the names and VIRTUALLY NOTHING ELSE to make Zontar, The Thing From Venus, which if nothing else serves as proof of Roger Corman's ability to make a movie. And then somehow it gets remade again by a classic Canadian sketch show? Dan, Keith, and John break it all down for your entertainment. Listen in!
