Podcast appearances and mentions of john sherwood

Lee and guest host Matt Anderson leave no stone unturned as they talk about the oddball 1950s sci-fi/disaster film "The Monolith Monsters" (1957), directed by John Sherwood. How can rocks that grow be all that scary? Does the film manage to sell that idea? The hosts talk a lot about how effective this low budget film is, and the people behind it, including the influence of genre king Jack Arnold. A lot of ground is covered in this one. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late. Be thankful Papa was a rolling stone and not an alien one, and come take a listen as to why that is! "The Monolith Monsters" IMDB  Check out Matt at: The Mighty Peculiar  The Bloodybits Horror Show  On Bluesky  Featured Music: "Main Title" from The Monolith Monsters by Irving Gertz & "I'll Turn to Stone" by The Supremes.
