THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (1951)—A flying saucer lands in Washington, D.C., carrying Klaatu, a humanoid alien, and Gort, his powerful robot enforcer. Klaatu brings a dire warning: humanity must abandon its violent ways or face destruction. As the world reacts with fear and aggression, Klaatu moves among humans to understand them, forming a … Continue reading Ep. 07-34: The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) REDUX →
Easter falls on 4/20 this year so we've got HIPPY JESUS and SPACE JESUS with JESUS CHRIST SUPER STAR (1973) and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL (1951). We've got Hippy Jesus screaming in the desert and Space Jesus getting shot at by jittery soldiers in Cold War Washington D.C. All this plus Carl Anderson delivering the performance of a lifetime as Judas Iscariot and GORT, the giant silver robot, melting tanks and cannons. This episode has Philena singing "I Don't Know How to Love Him" and Bob saying "Gort Klaatu Barada Nikto" to make her stop. What's the Buzz? We are buzzed. Before we get into the High Holiday weed pairings, Bob reviews FREAKY TALES, a movie that's hopefully still playing somewhere, because you should get really high and see it. Cory fills us in on his big move to Arkansas where he has found a wonderland of storied fast food chains that we do not have in California, Philena fills us in on the new build your own icecream sandwich joint in the Valley, and Bob recounts playing for a dive bar filled with Nazi skinheads with the Disneyland fireworks going off in the distance. And if that wasn't enough, we are joined by Sage, who has thoughts on JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. Come back in May for The PhilenApocalypse III in Super 3D with TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!

Ever wonder what DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL would be like as an animated Disney musical? Or DESTINATION: MOON as a xXx parody? And what do Dexter and John Waters have to do with all of this? Can your heart stand the shocking truth?? Join Rick and Ryan as they look back at their first season and ask each other stupid questions
In 1977, a chilling voice claiming to be from the Ashtar Galactic Command hijacked a British television broadcast, delivering a cryptic warning to humanity—was it a hoax, or first contact?IN THIS EPISODE: While scientists at SETI are continually monitoring for extraterrestrial contact from the cosmos, ordinary people are already hearing from them – via radio and television. (Aliens Voices Over Radio and Television) *** The death of a Hollywood movie producer is still unsolved – and his spirit on the lot is still at unrest. (The Mysterious Death of Thomas Ince) *** A family moves into a new home, and it's not long before they begin hearing strange sounds coming from the home bar in their living room. (Something In That Part of the House) *** In years past, baby boys were dressed in pink. So why the change to the color blue for boys? The answer is a dark one. (Baby Blues) *** In just 30 seconds, 30 rounds were fired when the tension between a crew of thieving cowboys and vigilante lawmen came to an explosive head in the frontier town of Tombstone, Arizona.

Roland Emmerich is not known for being an auteur director, but he is known for his disaster movies; the most defining and well-known of which is Independence Day. A movie that was almost called Doomsday. Can you imagine celebrating our Doomsday every 4th of July? A movie called Independence Day, released around Independence Day 1996, was never going to be anything other than a spectacle of American patriotism and the archetypal blockbuster. It was expensive, it was lucrative, and it was bombastic, and it could have only come out in the 90s. It would pay homage to The Day The Earth Stood Still, The War of the Worlds, and 70s disaster movies like The Towering Inferno, Airport and The Poseidon Adventure.Emmerich and his writing partner Dean Devlin knew they wanted to make an alien invasion movie. Surely no one else was doing one at the same time? Oh, hi, Tim Burton. Checkmate.I would love to hear your thoughts on Independence Day !CONTACT....

Ryan and Rick fawn over and go deep into the origin of science fiction classic, The Day The Earth Stood Still.
The Day The Earth Stood Still is a bonafide classic of the sci-fi genre, so there was understandably much hesitation from movie buffs when it was announced there would be a remake in 2008 starring Keanu Reeves. Although a moderate financial success, the new version did not win over critics or supplant the original in many people's eyes. This week we take a second look to find what this reboot got right!Join the Best of the Rest discord: https://discord.gg/86P7jJXNPb Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/user/botrcast Email: bestoftherestpod@gmail.com Social Media @BotRCast on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook Bonus content: Youtube Theme song (vocals) by Mark Benavides: Instagram Music by Mitch: Twitter, SoundCloud Logo by Alex Brinegar: https://beardodoesdesign.com/ Additional artwork by Phillip Chacon, C7Productions: Instagram

The first in our series where we try and palm off old episodes as something new and exciting. So, it's THE ATOMIC AGE PART 1, where we chat about films that were created in the shadow of the Oppenheimer bombs. The 1951 movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still is an absolute classic. The 2008 movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still, is definitely NOT a classic.

Originally penned by acclaimed author Harry Bates, this gripping tale takes us on a journey of extraterrestrial encounters and the profound impact they have on humanity. Lux Radio Theatre first brought this iconic story to the airwaves on January 4th, 1954, captivating audiences with its thought-provoking narrative. In this radio adaptation, the cast brought the story to life with their exceptional performances. Leading the ensemble was Richard Carlson in the role of Klaatu, the enigmatic visitor from another world. Joining him was Jean Hagen as Helen Benson, the unsuspecting Earthling who forms a deep connection with Klaatu. Billy Gray portrayed Bobby Benson, Helen's young son, while veteran actor Ralph Bellamy took on the role of Tom Stevens, a government official caught in the midst of the extraterrestrial intrigue. Together, they skillfully conveyed the suspense and wonder of this classic science fiction tale. Tune in to Vintage Classic Radio's "Sunday Night Playhouse" to experience the magic of "The Day The Earth Stood Still" once more, as we celebrate the enduring legacy of this radio masterpiece.

Count von Nudo and Schmutt P. Eddler do the time warp back to the musical that started a cult phenomenon exactly 50 years ago - The Rocky Horror (Picture) Show. We celebrate the opening song "Science fiction/Double Feature", which name-checks some of the greatest science fiction and horror films of the 1930s, 40s, 50s and 60s. We have been able to include six of the 11 films mentioned in this theme week. The other five, such as King Kong (1933) and The Invisible Man (1933) belong to big Hollywood studios, making it more difficult for us to get the rights to show them (but we will keep trying). Tony Sokol over at DenofGeek.com has a great overview of each song and film reference, from which we have stolen, sorry, quoted extensively. Do read his original article for more context and in-depth insights. It is remarkable how well Richard O'Brien knew his B-movies, given that there was no Internet or IMDb back in the days, but that is a sign of true geek fandom. Respect! The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) - “Michael Rennie was ill the day the Earth stood still, but he told us where we stand.” A science fiction film with a message for earth to get its s#!t together, by the great director Robert Wise. “Klaatu barada nikto”.Flash Gordon (1936) - “And Flash Gordon was there in silver underwear”. An episodic cinema serial with Buster Crabbe fighting Ming the Merciless. Familiar from television re-runs and of course the more famous 1980 re-make. It Came From Outer Space (1953) - “Then at a deadly pace it came from outer space.” An alien spaceship crash lands in the Arizona desert and people start acting strange. More Cold War paranoia, by director Jack Warner. Originally in 3D but shown here in boring 2D. Doctor X (1932) - “Dr X will build a creature.” Doctor Xavier doesn't actually build a creature (Frank N Further does tho), in this pre-code color film by Michael Curtiz, who later directed Bogart again in Casablanca (1942). “See androids fightingBrad and JanetAnne Francis stars inForbidden Planet…”Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohAt the late nightDouble Feature picture show”The Day of the Triffids (1963) - “And I really got hot when I saw Janette Scott fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills.” Or as Tony Sokol put it, "Vegetarians eat vegetables. Humanitarians, like Doctor X, eat humans. Triffids are vegetables that eat humans, vegetarian or not." So don't look up at meteor showers, or you'll wake up all "28 Days Later." Freddie Francis co-directs. Curse of the Demon aka Night of the Demon (1957) - “Dana Andrews said prunes, gave him the runes, and passing them used lots of skills.” Jacques Tourneur, of Cat People (1942) and I Walked with a Zombie (1943) fame, directs this British demonic chiller. A special shout-out to RKO Radio Pictures. We have our biggest Spotify playlist EVER, with over 100 songs.
It's time for one of those massive episodes. Well, it's a four parter anyways. 2008 was a pretty low key year for horror movies. Of course there were tons of them released but except for the likes of Cloverfield & the fifth Saw sequel, I don't recall the world in general going nuts for any of this stuff. Looking at my findings today, it appears that with horror we looked away from America for the real gems . But what do I think was the very greatest horror movie that came out during '08? Well, here we have the top 10. The worst 10. A slew of also rans. Some awesome mates. Some special guests. Several pints of beer and a 5+ hour running time split over 3 episodes.

Megan starts this week's show with a quick review of Angel Manuel Soto's entertaining Latinx superhero film BLUE BEETLE (3:22). Next, she and Dave discuss Charlotte Regan's well-acted drama SCRAPPER (14:47), which follows a 12-year-old girl who connects with her estranged father. Then, we all cover Cory Finley's grim sci-fi satire LANDSCAPE WITH INVISIBLE HAND (26:54), which involves teens (Asante Blackk and Kylie Rogers) who decide to broadcast their courtship for an extraterrestrial audience, but also a lot more. In this week's Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about the winner of our alien poll, Robert Wise's 1951 sci-fi film THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL!
We come to you now with a crucial message for all humankind, one that will echo down through the ages with three iconic words: THIS REMAKE SUCKS This week, we're taking a look at the 1951 classic The Day The Earth Stood Still and the nanomachine-infested remake from 2008. Can Matt do any better with his final remake of the season, and will humanity survive once they've heard his pitch?

Author, journalist and TV personality Nick Pope worked for the British government for 21 years, at the Ministry of Defense. In the course of his career, he served in a number of different posts, but is best known for work that he did between 1991 and 1994, when he was posted to a division where his duties included investigating reports of UFOs. The purpose of these investigations was to see whether anything reported might pose any threat to the defense of the UK, or suggest the existence of anything that might be of more general defense interest. Most sightings turned out to be misidentifications of ordinary objects or phenomena, but a small percentage remained unexplained. Contrary to popular belief, there was no definitive evidence that any of these sightings were extraterrestrial in origin. However, the Ministry of Defense remained open-minded about the possibilities and took no position on the existence of extraterrestrial life. Nick Pope was initially skeptical about UFOs, but his official research and investigation convinced him that whatever the nature of the sightings that remained unexplained, the UFO phenomenon raised important defense, national security and air safety issues. He was particularly interested in cases where the witnesses were pilots, or where UFOs were tracked on radar. More recently, Nick Pope has been involved in the program to declassify and release the MoD's UFO files and send them to the National Archives. This involved selecting some cases that would be of interest to the media, making a film to promote the release and giving newspaper, TV and radio interviews to publicize the story. Nick Pope left the Ministry of Defense in 2006. He now works as a freelance journalist and media commentator, writing and broadcasting on a wide range of subjects, including UFOs, the unexplained, conspiracy theories, fringe science, defense, intelligence, space and science fiction. Nick Pope works with a wide range of film companies, TV networks and production companies, helping develop ideas for new films, TV shows and documentaries. He contributes regularly to various news programs, chat shows and documentaries. Nick Pope works with various PR, marketing and advertising agencies, promoting sci-fi films and advertising campaigns themed around the unexplained. He has worked for clients that include Microsoft, 20th Century Fox and Sony Pictures and has been involved in promoting The X-Files: I Want To Believe and the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still. Nick Pope lectures all around the world and this has included addressing the Oxford Union and the Cambridge Union Society, as well as speaking at the Science Museum, the Royal Albert Hall and Global Competitiveness Forum 2011. Nick Pope has written four books, all of which have been published by Simon & Schuster. His non-fiction books are Open Skies Closed Minds, about UFOs, and The Uninvited, about the alien abduction mystery. Both books made the Top Ten in the Sunday Times list of hardback non-fiction books, with Open Skies Closed Minds reaching number three and staying in the Top Ten for ten weeks. These books have been translated into various foreign languages. Nick Pope has also written two science fiction novels about an alien invasion, Operation Thunder Child and Operation Lightning Strike. There have been discussions about producing a film or a TV miniseries based on these books. Nick Pope lives in London. - www.nickpope.net

Before the MCU became mainstream and before horror films won Oscars, Horror Hosts helped create the Monster Kid Culture and legitimize fandom and genre conventions. My guest, John Stanley, was not only the legendary host of Creature Features on KTVU-2 from 1979-1984, but also a novelist, film critic, and horror film director (NIGHTMARE IN BLOOD). Join us as we talk horror host history straight from the source, what it was like to be there when ALIEN, PHANTASM, and even STAR TREK first premiered, and how fans resurrected the horror host culture! I hope you enjoy the show!

EPISODE 1 Re-airing! Originally aired in September of 2018, this premiere episode of the show features Jeff Roll, who was VP of the James River Film Society for 5 years. to discuss The Day The Earth Stood Still. Directed by Robert Wise, this is the ultimate classic for sci-fi fans and starts off the show with Klaatu, the pacifist alien who lands in Washington DC to urge humans to live in peace. “The film, based on Harry Bates's short story "Farewell to the Master," was made during the Cold War and only a few years after mankind witnessed the atomic bomb's devastation. A third world war possibly would mean the first nuclear war and unimaginable destruction.”
