Science-fiction and horror have become staples on television, but October is still the month in which the types of films we (sometimes) discuss here show the...
Me too. This place has been remarably "dead" (pun intended) for some time. Sadly all too often classic horror has been misplaced on the small screen by the...
Things have gone from active to inactive to actively dead around here. Thanks to Jon this club/group is still in existence. I would like to make a bid to...
... Today is my birthday, Dean... but you get the present. PRESTO! You're a moderator again. Hope you can do something with this cadaver. Frankly, I haven't...
Thanks. I know what you mean about the group thing, but I've noticed in recent weeks a revival of sorts in several clubs/groups I belong too. Maybe that is...
What was the best monster flick you saw in 2002? I cast the net quite widely on this one, so feel free to include any movie (TV or theatre) which made use of...
My vote is for...Lord of the Rings--The Two Towers! I know many might not think this a monster movie, but to my mind it does a masterful job of realizing a...
This seems to be happening at most of the groups I visit (speaking personally). Mosat of them have gone thru a loooong dead period since spring. I don't know...
Most groups do seem to have a very narrow focus. This club is no exception, and in fact is a prime example. The original goal was to talk about Giant Monsters...
... quite ... theatre) ... Oddly enough, I think the silent film 'Vampyr' was probably the best monster related film I saw last year. 'Vampyr' hardly qualifies...
The original can't be beat for my tastes. I've only seen the English version, but even with all its creaky scenes it is the only one which is remotely scary....
I saw Vampyr once I think. I found it on a cheap video and sadly the copy was messed up. I was able to get one viewing (sort of) before I took it back to the...
I caught this TV adaptation of King's novel last week. Despite the fact is starred David Soul, I found it to be oddly effective. Like many of King's novels...

I remember seeing the original Salem's Lot many, many years ago while in high school. There are still scenes and moments that stand out. That kids that floats...

I can live with that. The American Godzilla isn't really part of the canon, and I can see why G-fans would be hostile to it. For my part, I thought they did a...
One of the Godzilla films I most enjoyed at a drive-in theater was 'King Kong vs Godzilla'. That was about the same time I discovered beer, or discovered that...
King Kong versus Godzilla was likely the first Big G movie I ever saw. WSAZ out of Huntington, West Virginia ran all-night monster flicks on Halloween and that...
... again ... it ... I find it really odd, Jon, that KK vs. G is the most-attended of all the Godzilla films ever. Even to this day. It did get a lot of hype...
This giant comic was my first introduction to the Mighty Kong. It would be years before I saw the movie, and even longer before I stumbled across the...
That's great news. I would love to see a remake of this childhood favorite. By the way, I agree with your critique of the film. The Kong suit is pathetic, but...
He might just be about my favorite actor. His wonderful portrayal in "The Thing" sets the perfect note for what just might be the nearest perfect monster movie...
Here is a link to B Monster's obit for the great Ken Tobey: http://www.bmonster.com/jan2003.shtml If that doesn't work try the bookmark in the links section...
Very sad news, indeed. He was a great actor. He appeared to be very at home and comfortable on screen. Not many guys can play opposite monsters without...
I finally rented this dubbed French import, which someone attempted to market to the same audience that loved 'Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tiger' a year or two...
I well remember this when it came out, but it disappeared long before I got a chance to see it. It did seem to be a far more complex film than the advertising...
