When we did our other podcast, the movie Black Legion had been on TCM the week before. I asked Tom if he had seen it and hadn't. I asked if he would watch it and discuss, and he watched, and we discussed. It's based on a true story and there really was a Black Legion. This film is unfortunately forever topical. Strike fear in people and keep it up and hence you get groups like this. I can bet they had this since cavemen times. Differing Area's cave peeps spoke different grunts, their feet were bigger, who knows. There's aways someone different and people fearing them.  It's a fascinating watch. Bogart is very good and so adorably young as a regular Joe being convinced the foreigners, them, they, are coming for his job, his life style and the American way. He does a great job. He won an award as did the film. Dick Foran was very good and a cutie pie. Ann Sheridan was good also in one of her first films, before she became The Oooomph girl. They whole cast was a winner. It's a good watch, but it definitely is not Singing In The Rain. On a lighter note we discuss Dick's singing cowboy career. Also, the fight to get Dick singing out on the trails before Gene Autry. Gene beat him to it. I was loving Dick's American Cowboy corral of choral singers. He had a whole posse of back up singers. I hope the bad guys didn't hear. ;  ) It's interesting hearing what an actors son has to say about a movie his dad was in that he just discovered. Tom is a wonderful guest and you will enjoy him as much as I do. He is welcome anytime.  Thanks a zillion Tom. You are fab!! Baby Wyatt is majorly gorgeous.  Mostly, thanks to the audience. Life throws a lot at you sometimes. I'm a when it rains it pours kinda gal, but I come out swinging and stronger. I know you all can relate. Thanks for being so loyal and patient. I love you all!!

I so enjoyed my talk with Tom. We talked Dicks friendships with Jimmy and Duke...Henry Fonda and many others. Dick was in great flicks like Dangerous, The Petrified Forest and a good one for all to check out Black Legion. He did lots of films and television. Was Trigger a diva? Dick's costar horse Smokey, his character's name was Smoke. There was a terrible rivalry between Smokey and Trigger..PS Tom talked after the show about a not nice guy...I'll never tell..I promised..   Thanks so much to Tom.. You were fab. I had lots of fun.  Thanks mostly to my listeners (Tom is one of you). You are the best.

Jim reflects on the second "Mummy" picture released among the four that followed the 1932 version of "The Mummy." "The Mummy's Tomb," starring Turhan Bey, Elyse Knox, John Hubbard, Dick Foran, George Zucco and Lon Chaney Jr, picks up 30 years after the events in "The Mummy's Hand." A high priest is sent to america to kill those who defiled the tomb of Princess Anaka. It's a killer mummy loose in Mapleton on this week's episode of "Monster Attack!"

Jim looks at the film that inspired "Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea," with 1959's "The Atomic Submarine," starring Arthur Franz, Dick Foran, Brett Halsey, Sid Melton and Bob Steele. Something is causing a series of nautical disasters at the North Pole. It is up to the crew of the Tigershark to solve the mystery, which may be "not of this world." It's all ahead on this episode of "Monster Attack!"

Trick or treat, it's Halloween! Universal Studios takes another swing at horror with 1941's HORROR ISLAND, starring Dick Foran, Peggy Moran, Leo Carrillo and Fuzzy Knight. Duelling singing cowboys and more characters you can count feature in this low-budget film directed by George Waggner. But do those ingredients add up to a horror-filled stew?

We conclude our acclaimed "Ronald-Reagan-appears-for-two-minutes-as-a-radio-announcer" series with Boy Meets Girl (1938), a Hollywood satire/"crazy comedy" adapted from the smash Sam and Bella Spewack play. Directed by Warner comedy ace Lloyd Bacon, the film certainly has its charms, but James Cagney and Pat O'Brien are playing roles originally intended for Olsen and Johnson - 'nuff said. The star duo's destabilizing antics are cribbed from the career-limiting capers of Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, opening up a fertile discussion of Hollywood labour practices during the second half of the Great Depression. We also get to spend a little more time with Dick Foran in a parody cowboy role (this time, a highly paid one) and meet the magnificent Marie Wilson (Judy Holliday avant la lettre). Don't forget Ralph Bellamy! He's in the mix too, as a line producer with delusions of intellectual sensibility.    Among the other topics of discussion on offer: Gene Autry's Cowboy Code, the PATSY Animal Actor Awards, the Childs' restaurant chain, vintage vegetarian satire, and a consideration of an alternate timeline in which Penny Singleton spelled the Gipper in the Governor's Mansion and, ultimately, the White House.   Follow us at: Facebook Follow Romy on Twitter at @rahrahtempleton Follow Gareth on Twitter at @helenreddymades Follow David on Twitter at @milescoverdale

Your deadicated hosts return to Universal Pictures for the reboot THE MUMMY'S HAND (1940), featuring Tom Tyler as toilet paper boy Kharis (not Boris Karloff), Dick Foran, Peggy Moran, Wallace Ford, and George Zucco. This is the missing link between the 1932 and 1999 mummy movies, but is there any substance underneath its wraps? Context setting 00:00; Synopsis 28:56; Discussion 40:17; Ranking 57:48

If Wyoming Steve Gibson didn't exist, those darned culture industry stupidity profiteers would've had to invent him. What's that? He doesn't exist? Hot damn! The Gipper takes a back saddle to Dick Powell once again in 1938's COWBOY FROM BROOKLYN, a film that (as contemporaries were quick to observe) did absolutely nothing for any of the talented people involved in its creation.    An elaboration of the (white) cultural appropriation narrative popularized by earlier Powell vehicles like BROADWAY GONDOLIER, this lower-drawer Lloyd Bacon musical comedy does derive a bit of satiric energy from Warner Brothers' obvious contempt for all things rural and countrified, but the film's central conceit (that people will put up with - and possibly even laugh at - 90 minutes' worth of Dick Powell running screaming from squirrels and barnyard fowl) is so catastrophically misguided that most viewers will have fallen off this irritating bull long before its Gender Panic Rodeo finale.    Can a movie with Priscilla Lane, Ann Sheridan, James Stephenson, Pat O'Brien, Granville Bates, Hobart Cavanaugh, Elisabeth Risdon, Dick Foran, Dick Powell, and Ronald Reagan be all bad? 12-year old Dave would never have believed it, but...  Try watching this one under hypnosis and see if that helps.     Now is a time for choosing. Choose RED TIME FOR BONZO!   Outro Music: "Ride, Tenderfoot, Ride" performed by Dick Powell & Priscilla Lane, music by Richard A. Whiting & lyrics by Johnny Mercer Follow us at: Facebook Follow Romy on Twitter at @rahrahtempleton Follow Gareth on Twitter at @helenreddymades Follow David on Twitter at @milescoverdale   Intro Theme: "Driving Reagan" by Gareth Hedges

Once again we travel back to 1940 to check in on the horror film output of Universal Studio! This time we have a literary adaptation of Nathanial Hawthorne's classic novel THE HOUSE OF SEVEN GABLES. Filmed both before and since it's as straightforward an example of a melodrama filled with familial guilt and resentment played out against a background of possible supernatural components. Did someone say Gothic Romance? Well - I did, even if this might not be exactly what some think of when imagining that specific type of creepy tale. I make the argument that this film may have been the template for a few dozen similar tales over the decades with Troy pointing out the Dan Curtis connection as well. This movie casts a long, dark shadow indeed! We dig deeply into the film, happy that we get to talk about Vincent Price one more time before he exits Universal. The rest of the cast is even more impressive with George Sanders playing his standard cad character with arch skill. But it's the amazing Margret Lindsey as Hepzibah that takes top acting honors bringing real longing and nuanced emotion to the most difficult role in the story. We get return visits from Alan Napier, Cecil Kellaway and Nan Grey with singing cowboy Dick Foran making his debut in a Universal Horror film. As the discussion continues we talk about the changes and additions to the original story with special attention paid to future victim of the Black List, screenwriter Lester Cole and the visual choices made by director Joe May. This is a beautiful movie with much of interest to classic horror fans and romantic drama aficionados too.

Two down on their luck archaeologists try to unravel the mystery of Princess Ananka, but get in the way of Kharis, the legendary royal who was buried alive. It's the 1940 favorite, "The Mummy's Hand," starring Dick Foran, Wallace Ford, Peggy Moran, George Zucco, Tom Tyler and Cecil Kellaway. The Epyptian hills of Southern California never looked so good on this episode of Monster Attack.
