Monster Kid Radio #085 - MKR Crashes Santo and Blue Demon Against the Monsters

The final installment of the 2014 Cinescopio film series happened March 20, 2014, and Derek was there. The movie? Santo and Blue Demon Against the Monsters (dir. Gilberto Martínez Solares). The event? A Monster Kid Radio Crash. Derek was joined by MKR listeners/crashers Tom Daufel, Ray Jelinek, and Chris McMillan for a night of masked wrestling, monsters, Santo, Blue Demon, a creepy little monster dude that scared Derek more than any other monster in the film, a fashion show, a panel (featuring Mega Boy and Ideal Mexican, moderated by John Cárdenas) . . . and plenty of laughs. This was an amazing night, and Derek had his recorder on hand to share the evening with the Monster Kid Radio listeners who couldn't make the show.

Monster Kid Radio #084 - Monsterkiditorial #001

Earlier this year, blogger Vanessa Krystle watched The Creature from the Black Lagoon for the first time. She watched the film "live" with her followers on Twitter, and ultimately didn't have a lot of nice things to say about it. In the very first Monster Kid Radio Monsterkiditorial, Derek responds to her review.

Monster Kid Radio #083 - Getting raw with Ed Wood and Joe Blevins

A few weeks ago, Joe Blevins (Dead 2 Rights) joined Derek to talk about the careet of Edward D. Wood, Jr., as well as some of the lesser-known Ed Wood films that Monster Kid Radio listeners might enjoy. This wasn't the first time Derek and Joe had appeared on a podcast together, but it was the first time they actually recorded a back-and-forth conversation for a show. Before diving into the "actual" recording session for Episodes 79 and 80, they warmed up with this informal conversation.

Monster Kid Radio #081 - Apparently, everyone (including Tom Biegler) thinks Beverly Garland is pretty in The Alligator People

Even though a couple of doctors seem quite taken with Beverly Garland's appearance in The Alligator People (dir. Roy Del Ruth), the film has a lot more going for it than that! Returning guest Tom Biegler joins Derek to talk about this 20th Century Fox film from 1959 that seems to have all the trappings of a Universal monster movie from the early 50s! Lon Chaney, Jr., makes a splash in the film . . . and not just because he's in the swamp with the alligators! Additionally, the Rondo Award nominations were announced this week, and Monster Kid Radio is on the ballot! Finally, Derek makes an announcement at the end of this episode.
