Monster Kid Radio #331 - George McGowan and The Blob (dir. Irvin Yeaworth, Russell S. Doughton Jr.) and Kris Yeaworth (Monster Bash Part Four)
Things get sticky this week on Monster Kid Radio when Collecting Classic Monsters' George McGowan joins Derek to tackle the 1958 classic The Blob (dir. Irvin Yeaworth, Russell S. Doughton Jr.). There's a lot to talk about regarding The Blob, so much so that Derek and George can't cover it themselves! So to fill in some more blob blanks, we go back to Monster Bash for a recording from the Q&A session with Kris Yeaworth, the son of the film's director. Plus, feedback and announcements regarding upcoming episodes and events!

Monster Kid Radio #330 - Frank Dello Stritto on The Return of the Vampire (Monster Bash 2017 - Part Three)
At Monster Bash, author Frank Dello Stritto took us all to ghoul school on the 1943 film The Return of the Vampire (dir. Lew Landers) and its place in Dracula-movie-dom. It was a fantastic presentation, and Frank was kind enough to spend some time with Derek between events at the Bash to make a private recording of his talk. Do you know who hadn't seen The Return of the Vampire before the Bash? Scott Morris, and he shares his thoughts on the film, as well as on the movie shown as a drive-in feature at the Bash - 1958's How to Make a Monster (dir. Herbert L. Strock).

Let's take a trip to The Land Unknown (dir. Virgil W. Vogel) this week on Monster Kid Radio with Fandom Radio Podcast's Joe Eiden. Does this 1950s sci-fi, lost world flick from Universal deliver? Listen to Derek and Joe to find out! We'd like to say that you'll get what you normally expect from an episode of Monster Kid Radio, but Joe changes the rules . . . of the Classic Five!

It's time for a check up with the good Dr. Gangrene (aka Larry Underwood) when he joins Monster Kid Radio this week to take a look at the 1981 anthology film The Monster Club (dir. Roy Ward Baker). For years, Larry has been torturing Derek with the music from this film, but Derek really shouldn't complain. A mad scientist like Dr. Gangrene is SUPPOSED to torture people, right? Besides, how tortuous can a movie REALLY be if it features Vincent Price and John Carradine? Derek and Larry discuss the film and the music that punctuates the movie's soundtrack, as well as the latest in the world of Dr. Gangrene. We also have listener feedback, and, hey, there's a Monster Kid Radio Crash coming!

Scott Morris is a podcast legend*. He's been podcasting for over nine years at Disney, Indiana. He was a regular contributor to Derek's previous podcasting venture. He's contributed to numerous podcasts over the years. And from 2011 to 2016, he was one of the co-producers of 1951 Down Place, where he, Derek, and Casey Criswell examined a movie from the classic Hammer Films catalog once a month. Scott joins Derek this week to discuss what happened to 1951 Down Place, what the future holds for this podcast, and why it might have something to do with what's happening with all-things Monster Kid Radio moving forward!

* Derek has no idea if Scott's really all that comfortable with being called a "legend" so often, but quite frankly, he doesn't care. Scott's a podcast legend as far as Derek's concerned! |
