Derek attended the 2014 World Horror Convention in Portland, Oregon, last weekend. The convention was a horror writer's paradise, and Derek spoke with fellow podcaster Desmond Reddick (from the Dread Media podcast) about his experiences at the convention, and even plays a round of the MKR Classic Five. While most of the panels and content at the WHC were focused on current horror fiction, but Monster Kid Radio listeners would still have found something to do at the convention as one of the special guests was Victoria Price, the daughter of the legendary Vincent Price. Not only did she deliver an amazing presentation about her father (which listeners will hear in Episode #98 of Monster Kid Radio), but she chatted with Derek in the dealer's room as well.

At last weekend's Monster Kid Radio Crash, before Derek and the rest of the audience leaned back in their seats for the original Godzilla (dir. Ishirô Honda), two men took the stage to introduce the film. Kyle Yount is the producer and host of the Kaijucast, the world's premier Godzilla-related podcast, and August Ragone has been called the best Japanese fantasy film historian working in English today. (Mr. Ragone's new book Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters: Defending the Earth with Ultraman, Godzilla, and Friends in the Golden Age of Japanese Science Fiction Film was just released, and it looks GORGEOUS!) Kyle and August presented the background of the movie - how it was conceived, its influences, the primary players in the creation of the Godzilla franchise, etc. Also, Derek completes his look at the the recent Sony blu-ray 2-disc Godzilla movie releases - Godzilla vs. Destroyah & Godzilla vs. Megaguirus and Godzilla: Tokyo S. O. S. & Godzilla: Final Wars.

The original Godzilla (dir. Ishirô Honda) is in the middle of a limited theatrical run, and Monster Kid Radio crashed a screening at Portland's Hollywood Theatre. Derek was there, and was joined by MKR regulars Ray Jelinek and Chris McMillan. Chris and Derek previous talked about Godzilla last year on Episodes #27 and #28, but this was a first-time viewing of the film for Ray. Also, Derek takes a look at the recent blu-ray double-disc releases of Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah & Godzilla and Mothra: The Battle for Earth and Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II & Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla. (In two days, Derek will tackle the other blu-ray double-disc releases Godzilla vs. Destroyah & Godzilla vs. Megaguirus and Godzilla: Tokyo S. O. S. & Godzilla: Final Wars.)

Ray Jelinek continues his Infra-Man stint on Monster Kid Radio as he and Derek thunder fist punch their way into the nitty gritty of this 1975 Shan Hua-directed film. Ray's life was changed the day he saw this film as a child, and Derek wishes he had that same formative experience. In addition to Derek and Ray wrapping up their discussion of Infra-Man, Derek learns about Ray's childhood horror host.

When Derek first started talking with his friends about about launching Monster Kid Radio, Ray Jelinek started talking about a movie he remembered seeing when he was a kid. That movie was 1975's Infra-Man (dir. Shan Hua), and while it wasn't a movie that would normally find a home in the Monster Kid Radio wheelhouse, Ray's enthusiasm and outright glee when talking about this movie makes Infra-Man something we DEFINITELY need to talk about on the podcast.
