James Greene, Jr. is the author of the recent Ghostbusters history book, A Convenient Parallel Dimension. His book goes a great job of looking at the struggles to create the different installments in the Ghostbusters franchise, including looking at the conflicts that happened behind the scenes. In this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, James and I spend a fair amount of time discussing how film culture itself was different in the 80s, at the time of the first Ghostbusters, and how that shaped our view of the film 40 years later. — See Show Notes at www.AaronBossig.com Follow me on Twitter, Hive, or Instagram - @AaronBossig

Sit back and relax because we're starting a series on one of our favorite bands, the Misfits, and a plethora of films, magazines, and celebrities that inspired Misfits songs. On this episode we got into a wide range of topics... the Misfits early days and the Cough/Cool single, Famous Monsters of Filmland, Hollywood Babylon, and other sleazy literature. The cursed film, The Misfits, from 1960 starring Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable, who would both be dead within a short time after filming. We ponder Who Killed Marilyn? with Static Age and Legacy of Brutality, Suicide's Ghost Rider, Wendy O. Williams and anger in punk rock. Plan 9 Records and the films of Ed Wood, most notably Plan 9 from Outer Space from 1959 - the inspiration behind Tim Burton's Ed Wood film from 1994 - and the cast of characters Criswell, Tor Johnson, Bela Lugosi, and Vampira. We also get into how Maila Nurmi aka Vampira inspired not only the Misfits but others in the punk scene as one of the very first goth horror hostesses, inspiring Elvira as well. After our discussion of The Crimson Ghost and Cyclotrode X is where our discussion pauses for this week, until we continue next week with Part II - Horror Business!
