Episode 7 – Creature from the Black Lagoon

Talk Film Society — Wed, 30 Oct 2019 19:19:55 +0000

It’s all come to this, your hosts Matt (@TheRealMattC) and Jacob (@Jacob_deNobel) take a trip to the Black Lagoon for the final episode of the first season of Monsters Never Die. That’s right, this week we jump ahead to the 1950s when atomic horror and sci-fi was king and everyone fell in love with the Gill-Man! They tackle the original 1954 The Creature from the Black Lagoon, as well as its direct sequels Revenge of the Creature and The Creature Walks Among Us before diving into a few other Lagoon Lite adventures. We cover it “all,” from Humanoids of the Deep, to Demon of Paradise, and even Wes Craven’s Swamp Thing! The hosts also highlight a personal favorite of theirs, Guillermo del Toro’s Best Picture winning The Shape of Water and drown themselves in tears over just how beautiful it is. So until Monsters Never Die returns, stay scared and remember Spooky Season Never Ends!

Talk Film Society — Tue, 29 Oct 2019 19:11:50 +0000

Your spooky hosts Matt (@TheRealMattC) and Jacob (@Jacob_deNobel) head to the catacombs beneath the Paris Opera House to discuss the most lovelorn of the Universal Monsters, The Phantom of the Opera.

Along the way they make a detour and tackle various other phantoms, whether they be of Paradises, Malls, or Auditoriums! Oh and it wouldn’t be a Spooky Season podcast without a little Robert England talk, so the spooky boys discuss the gore-filled 1989 adaptation as well. So grab your favorite costume for the Masquerade and give us a listen and stay spooky won’t you?

For their one monthiversary the boys Matt (@TheRealMattC) and Owen (@OwenKennelly) decide to talk some anime that’s not Evangelion, as well as Evangelion! Weird!

For this third episode, your gracious hosts through anime, Matt (@TheRealMattC) and Owen (@OwenKennelly) are knee deep in Evangelion.
