A movie overshadowed by its predecessor, does Predator 2 continue the legacy the 1987 classic laid out? Is Danny Glover a good lead after Arnold? Is this the best the Predators ever looked? Lets dissect that plot of this one and get some answers an...
An island full of mutated creatures, a group stuck in a storm on said island as the creatures run amok. No, I'm not talking about 1993's Jurassic Park, I'm talking about 1959's THE KILLER SHREWS. How did a movie set in one location, directed by a special effects artist, with mediocre effects become the highest grossing independent movie of its time? Well, let's talk about it and more this week on THE MONSTER ZONE.

The MONTH OF ACTION continues, as we dive into the worlds introduction to eccentric director Michael Bay, alongside two powerhouses of TV, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, with 1995's BAD BOYS.

Who knows, but lets talk about it, this wee...

Before Charles Band was the man who brought us such classic as The Puppet Master series, Re-Animator, and Subspecies, he gave us 1982's PARASITE. An early 80's venture into the realm of 3-D, this movie didn't just give us early Stan Winston effects, but an early performance by now Academy Award nominee Demi Moore. To the wasteland we go, to fight a gang of raiders, eat soup at the local establishment, and get a room at the Hilton, ...

Well, that's what we are dissecting this week for our Jaws Clone Month.

Should this be discussed more alongside some of th...
When legendary producer Roger Corman gives you instructions on want he wants from his monster movie, clearly you should listen. This week we look at the movie that was made multiple times depending on who was working on it, where lead actors bashed it on talk shows, but had monster effects that stole the show, HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP. Did Corman go to far with the decisions that were made for the final product? Would we like to see...
Every Friday the 13th, we venture back to Crystal Lake to see how it's changed, and this week, we're doing it in 3D!!

John from Dewey Podmonster joins us to share his love for this entry and maybe try to sway the group into loving it, too. Does the 3D make it worthwhile? Are...
THEY'RE UNDER THE GROUND! This week we begin our "Jaws Clones Month" with an all time classic.

We dive back into the Patreon Vault as another Burt I. Gordon "classic" makes it's way to the show, 1958's WAR OF THE COLOSSAL BEAST. A sequel that lasts as long as a current day TV show episode, and the lack of exciting moments, was this the early case of leave a movie at one entry? Did the effects alone make this watchable? Mystery Science Theater 3000 did a good job at it, so let's see if we can, this week on THE MONSTER ZONE.
