Podcasts about monster movies

Basically everything you think of when you think of vampires, mummies, werewolves, and Frankenstein all come from a spate of films made in the 1930s, and every one of them by Universal Pictures. Amazingly, they are still among the best films ever made.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hope is an action movie from South Korea that was a huge hit with audiences there. It opened in the US in September and has gotten a good amount of buzz. Author/Educator Joan Sung helped me break down the film, and we talked about the things we liked and didn't like about the movie. Hopefully we can give you a fair idea about whether it's worth your time or not.

Jason and Rachel review Hope, the bonkers Korean monster movie set near the DMZ that somehow combines horror, comedy, action, alien empathy, anime energy, and a whole lot of running. We get into why the movie is very long but rarely boring, the incredible production design, the cowardly/incompetent police chief who somehow becomes hilarious, the rookie cop stealing the show, the gross-but-funny alien dissection scene, the baby alien reveal, the creepy hunter garage, and Michael Fassbender's digital alien.

Our Monster Movie Season concludes with 2020s reimagining of The Invisible Man. Written and directed by modern horror master Leigh Whannell, The Invisible Man reinvents the iconic character as a narcissistic tech billionaire and stars Elizabeth Moss as his victim. Featuring a great modernisation of a classic character and the exploration of domestic abuse, manipulation, control and gaslighting, 2020s The Invisible Man plays it quiet and creepy with its lingering shots and stretched out moments of silence.

Our monster movie season continues with 1933's The Invisible Man! Loosely adapting H.G Wells novel of the same name, The Invisible Man stars Claude Rains as the titular villain in a film that is equal parts mind-blowing special effects, classic monster movie horror and unintentional hilarity as an invisible naked man wreaks havoc and hijinks.

This week the boys take a trip to the beginning of the 2010s as they look at the often maligned and forgotten The Wolfman. Largely adapting the original story but blending in a bit more action and gothic horror vibes, 2010s The Wolfman features a star-studded cast comprised of Benicio Del Toro, Sir Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt and Mr Hugo Weaving (Mor-dor) and Rick Baker returning to the werewolf genre for some special effects. But why did such a star-studded cast result in a film that was pretty hated on upon release? Does The Wolfman hold up today?

It's a full moon this week as the boys continue their Monster Movie Season with a 1940s classic in The Wolf Man. Featuring a star-studded line up of Lon Chaney Jr, Bela Lugosi and Claude Rains, The Wolf Man delivers some full moon frights, some 1940s gender stereotypes and some scenes that lead the boys on some x-rated tangents.

Monster Movie season officially begins with 1932's Universal Monster Movie The Mummy! The boys take a trip back in time as we discuss an early monster movie and one of the first on-screen iterations of the legendary Mummy. Featuring Boris Karloff as the titular villian and a heap of early horror tropes, The Mummy frightened audiences and paved the way for many iconic horrors that came after it.

First, the monster movie that’s split critics right down the middle. It’s brutal, strangely beautiful and far more emotional than you expect — with performances that will absolutely give you something to argue about in the group chat.Then, season two of a series that chronicles the re emergence of Godzilla is finally here, delivering bigger battles, sharper character drama and the kind of spectacle that makes you wish your TV was the size of a cinema screen.Plus, we’ve started the new origin story about a very famous teenage detective — and it’s moodier, darker and far more dramatic than you’d think.

It Came from Beneath the Sea (1955), The Monster that Challenged the World (1957), and The Giant Gila Monster (1959) There is something special about this decade, one that gave us so many sci-fi / horror films, with plenty of incredible monsters, whether they came from outer space, or right here from our backyard. And thanks to atomic energy, those monsters tended to be big ones! In fact... GIANT ONES! Just imagine a creature, from bugs to animals, and I'm sure someone in the 1950s made a movie about them- one where they were bigger and angrier! In this episode, we take a look at three different examples, each using a different method to bring its humongous beast to life, from stop-motion animation, to practical mechanical effects, to the good old-fashioned approach of using a real creature with undersized sets. No matter how they did it, all of these films deliver some damn fine entertainment. So grab the popcorn, crank up your rock 'n' roll, and sit back for some fun!

What happens when you mix a show-biz professional with a passion for the paranormal and the macabre? You get the brilliant, twisted mind of Eric Miller. This week on The Twilight Tonic, DeeDee sits down with the screenwriter behind The Shadow Men, Mask Maker, and the "mirth and mayhem" of the SyFy hit Ice Spiders. We explore Eric's journey through the entertainment industry, his work on legendary scripts, and the "terrifying" reality of being an indie producer. Whether he's writing sappy poems or creature features that catch the attention of The Late Show, Eric brings a wealth of insider knowledge that most fans never get to hear. Tune in for a look at the dark side of storytelling and the monsters—real and imagined—that keep us watching.

All right, you nerds - step into the dripping, wet Deep Dark Lounge, grab a drink and listen to our chat about 1983's "The Deadly Spawn".  This episode is for folks who can enjoy a movie shot on 16mm film, made largely by amateurs on a $25,000 budget in the pre-CGI age, chock-full of fake blood and surprisingly good creature design and practical effects.

This week we continue our Oscar coverage with Guillermo del Toro's adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. We discuss the long road to making del Toro's dream project as well as the expensive Netflix production. After we discuss the production of the film, we dive into the movie itself and discuss the various themes throughout the film. Finally, we each pair this film with another for a pair of double bills for your viewing pleasure. Thank you so much for listening!
