It's a Monstie Baby episode! We're breaking the format with the premiere episode of Monster Rally Top 5, a countdown bonus series where the Monstie Men are joined by a guest & rank their Top 5 favorites of a given topic. There's nobody we're happier to have join us for this special episode than author, writer, & podcaster-extraordinaire: Jordan Morris! Make sure you head on down to your Local Comic Shop and pick up a copy of Jordan's newest comic, Web of Spider-verse: New Blood, where he pens a tale about a vampire-slaying Mary Jane Watson hunting a vampiric Spider-Man set in the 80's. And while you're already at your LCS, ask them to pre-order a copy (or 10) of Jordan's next comic, Godzilla vs LA, which will benefit charities helping to rebuild LA after the horrific fires that ravaged the city earlier this year.

Sometimes, the consensus is that the sequel is actually better than the movie (see The Empire Strikes Back, Godfather Part II, For A Few Dollars More, The Winter Soldier, Evil Dead 2, Wrath of Khan, or Paddington 2 for examples), and now that we're in the back half of Werewolf Winter, let's find out how the Jason Bateman-led Teen Wolf Too stacks up against the original. Surely, they wouldn't just try to cash in on a *monster* hit, would they? Behold, the greatest scene in any film ever. One might say it's RAD.

Awooooooooo & welcome to Werewolf Winter! It's the winter, and we're talking about werewolves, ya Lil Monsties! In this episode, we talk about the cult classic Dog Soldiers, where the premise is as simple & wonderful as "what if soldiers fought werewolves?" Sometimes genius doesn't have to be convoluted.

The Monstie Men start 2025 by wrapping up their Nosferatu retrospective with Robert Eggers's take on Count Orlok! Has there ever been a vampire movie with this much spit or this many O-faces? Is this one a low-key comedy? Or is it an erotic gothic romance? There's a lot to say about this one, and we definitely talk about the mustache of it all.

Okay, Mr Cook, we accept your surrender. That's right, Lil Monsties: after all this time, you can finally (re)listen to our original episode where the original trio (Gary, James, & Mike) talk about the OG Universal Monster: Dracula! It's a Christmas miracle! We hope you are enjoying the holiday season, we hope you enjoyed the episode, and we can't wait for you to hear what we have in store for next year. Note: the audio is rough, the format is still forming, but this is where it all began. You may ask yourself "why does it say remastered?" Astute catch there, Monstie. This is a cleaned up version of the original stream-of-conscious episode to make it a bit more enticing for your aural pleasure... plus we had to get rid of a couple of edits that perhaps maybe had licensed music...

Well, everyone knows Max Shreck wasn't an actual vampire when they filmed Nosferatu. What this movie presupposes is... maybe he was? The Monstie Men talk about 2000's Shadow of the Vampire, a movie about the filming of the original Nosferatu set in a world where Count Orlock is a real vampire that FW Murnau hired under the guise of stage actor Max Shreck. Not only is it a wild one, but Willem Dafoe & John Malkovich are firing on all cylinders in this one. Get all your links for the Monster Rally (including podcatchers, social media, & merch) here.

Gobble gobble, Lil Monsties! For this Thanksgiving (one of Gary's Top 5 Holidays), the Monstie Men are here to bring you a full meal of an episode, and here's a spoiler alert: this movie certainly isn't a turkey. We talk about Werner Herzog's retelling of the silent film classic with a modern (well...for the time) twist. And this time? This time they can legally call him Dracula .

The Monstie Men dip a toe into the Public Domain as they talk about the original Nosferatu, a silent German Expressionist black & white film that was supposed to be destroyed over a century ago. Luckily, some keen theater owner had kept a print to themselves, and piracy has let it proliferate over the years. Nosferatu is probably the creepiest monster we've covered yet, even if he's Temu Dracula. Get all the links for the Monster Rally Podcast, including social media, merch, and the show itself here.

The OG Monstie Men are back to get medieval on the Evil Dead series by talking about 1992's Army of Darkness!

*TW: there is brief discussion of sexual assault about midway through the episode* In 1981, five friends went to a cabin in the backwoods of Tennessee. What became of them became horror movie legend. Before the boomstick, there was The Evil Dead, a video nasty that would start Sam Raimi's ascent in Hollywood & make Bruce Campbell the genre luminary he is today.

The Monstie Men head to Merry Olde England for their first alien invasion! his movie is widely available for free online, but that doesn't mean that it won't look more pixelated than an NES being played on an 8K tv. This one's admittedly a weird one, but it does seem like it's a foundational film. Talking points: carnivorous plants, Unbreakable, saltwater hoses, A Quiet Place Day One, Unbreakable, Jon Pertwee's Third Doctor, and Unbreakable.

The Stephen Summer just can't stop with a movie that is definitely not a monster movie, but it maybe, perhaps, possibly could be considered monstrous...and that's good enough, right? But what it does is give us the chance for an inter-Geekscape crossover! Today, the Monstie Men are joined by Chris from Bulletproof Action (both the Podcast & Website). We wax poetically about our love of GI Joe, and also about this "movie." Y'all, Brendan Fraser said that his character was Rick O'Connell's grandson once, and that's good enough for us.

This week, the Monstie Men are joined by author of the upcoming graphic novel Youth Group, Jordan Morris (Jordan Jesse Go, Free with Ads)! We talk about a little indie movie called Jaws by this up & coming director named Stevie Spielberg. You probably never heard of it & who knows if he's got a career after this one.

This time, the Monstie Men are joined by Asa Waggoner, from the Californian ska band For the Record.

Red & the Monstie Men dive into The Mummy Returns, the sequel to the perfect(?) modern classic The Mummy. Is it as maligned as some claim? Is it a hidden gem? Why's The Rock in it?

TW: allergies are the absolute worst, so there's some awful background sounds at parts of the episode, and we did our best to take them out, but...we're sorry. The time has finally come...a promise made at the very outset of this show: The Monstie Men are sitting across the table from each other to talk about the 1999 Stephen Sommers masterpiece, The Mummy. Do we have huge crushes on Rachel Weisz, Brendan Fraser, & Oded Fehr? Don't you? Don't we all? In a year jam packed with tons of incredible movies, why is this the best one?

*Trigger Warning: this movie deals heavily with domestic abuse, and it is discussed in the episode.* James & Gary close out their miniseries about Universal's Dark Universe-adjacent movies as they talk about Blumhouse's 2020 hit, The Invisible Man, starring Elizabeth Moss & Aldis Hodge. It's an interesting modern take on the classic HG Wells story, and it makes the Monstie Men ask the question: Are there any other classic Universal monsters that would benefit from this stripped-down, modern take that completely reimagines the original? Let's be honest...probably not, but maybe this episode description is lying. I'll never tell.

How much force does it take to throw a man against a tree & have him fold like a wallet? Should Flipper have a gun?

We are quite sorry for the delay, as James had surgery & the Stork dropped off a new bundle at The Big Sombrero's. Do y'all remember in The Invisible Man Returns where Vincent Price is convicted of a crime that he didn't commit, so he convinces a scientist to give him that sweet invisible juice so he can find the real killer & prove his innocence? Well if you don't, you can hear us talk about it here. But if you do, get ready for a dumpier version that's merely a showcase for the great Abbott & Costello!

James & "James" dip their snoots into the first of the Abbott & Costello X Uni Monstie joint. When Wilbur & Chick unleash the dastardly eternal evil of Dracula & Franklin Stein in lovely South Florida, the two goofballs must team-up with Sad Larry Wolfman & a vivacious insurance investigator named Joan to stop them before Dracula can rule the world.

James & the Big Sombrero are back with this 1946 *technically* movie starring June Lockhart as an heiress who may just be going on a werewolf murder spree a mere week before her wedding, but maybe...just maybe...things aren't what they seem.

The Mummy's Curse is LCJ's last outing as Kharis, so let's join James & the Big Sombrero to see if he lands it. Spoiler: He doesn't! Programming note: We're taking a slight detour with our next episode to talk about The Last Voyage of the Demeter, which may still be in theaters when you listen to this episode, so try to make it out to see it before it disappears into the depths of streaming Hell.

When it comes to mummies, the Monster Rally Fellas are big fans. When it comes to LCJ...well, not as much. That said, you gotta dance with the Kharis you come with, and that's just what we do. There are lots to say about The Mummy's Ghost, but the most important thing? Is this peak dog cinema? Follow us on Instagram @monsterrallypod Buy some merch at our TeePublic shop!

*Programming note: we screwed up at the end of our previous episode and said that House of Frankenstein. Obviously, you may notice that this episode isn't HoF. Whoops, we screwed up. We will be doing House of Frankenstein, but there are still a couple of movies before we get there.* Sometimes the titles of the Universal Monstie movies don't really match up (looking at you, Mummy franchise). This time? It's extraordinarily accurate. If you ever wanted to "see" an invisible man try to get revenge on people who've wronged him, well, this bad boy's for you!
