Monster Kid Radio #261 - The Mummy and Stephen D. Sullivan


The early 1930s laid the groundwork for monster moviedom. Vampires, mad scientists, patchwork monsters . . . and mummies. 1932's The Mummy (dir. Karl Freund) put Boris Karloff in the bandages for a movie whose influence can still be felt today. Author Stephen D. Sullivan joins Derek this week on Monster Kid Radio to talk about this seminal film. Also, we have some listener feedback. And don't forget - it's RONDO SEASON!

Monster Kid Radio #260 - The Gorgon and Joshua Kennedy


Filmmaker and monster kid Joshua Kennedy joins Derek this week to talk about one his favorite movies - 1964's The Gorgon (dir. Terence Fisher). Not only do the two talk about this underrated Hammer classic, Joshua also lets slip who his favorite director is (not that it would be hard to guess!). The Gorgon is such a favorite of Josh's that it inspired his upcoming movie The Night of Medusa (dir. Joshua Kennedy), which will be coming to DVD players near you soon! Also, Derek just found out (courtesy of The Shadow Over Portland) that the Northwest Film Center is showing a White Zombie (dir. Victor Halperin)-The Crime of Dr. Crespi (dir. John H. Auer) double feature this weekend. You know where Derek will be Saturday night! And don't forget - it's RONDO SEASON!

Monster Kid Radio #259 - Gorgo and Tony Wendel


Tony Wendel from The Gigantic Project joins Derek this week to take on a gigantic film - Gorgo (dir. Eugène Lourié). SPOILERS AHEAD! This 1961 European kaiju film leaves quite an impression on the two, and even seems to up the ante when it comes to how to tell a kaiju story. It's not just a British Godzilla! (And, somehow, Tony even manages to make a reference to a 1988 Don Bluth film.) Also, remember it's RONDO SEASON!

Monster Kid Radio #258 - Justin Macumber and a look at Dracula


He's the original Dead Robot. He's a Hollywood Outsider. And he likes Dracula (dir. Tod Browning). He's author and podcaster Justin Macumber, and this week he joins Derek to talk about this landmark monster film and it's impact on them. It's a light conversation that speaks to what it is about these movies that brings us monster kids together - we just LOVE THEM and love talking with others who love them. Also, Derek reminds the listeners about why this Wednesday, March 9th, is important.
