Monster Kid Radio #034 - Rich Chamberlain, Bela Lugosi, and Boris Karloff - Part One

Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff are two of the patron saints of Monster Kid Radio, and for good reason. Their films - especially the films they were in together - strike a strong chord in the hearts and minds of monster kids everywhere, and the Monster Movie Kid Rich Chamberlain returns to Monster Kid Radio to talk about these two titans of classic terror. Were they more alike than some have led us to believe? Which one became a US citizen? Who did more radio work? Who had more wives? Rich and Derek talk about these two men in Part One of MKR's look at the sometimes parallel paths of Karloff and Lugosi.

Tracey Morris (from Disney, Indiana) continues her visit to the Monster Kid Radio Station with more talk about the movie The Valley of Gwangi (dir. Jim O'Connolly). Ray Harryhausen's influence has been felt across nearly all of moviedom, and has definitely been felt in Tracey's wheelhouse, so she and Derek talk a bit about how Harryhausen's films may have influenced some of her favorite films. They also talk briefly about the recent documentary Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan (dir. Gilles Penso). Later in the show, Tom Biegler calls in his thoughts on a Vincent Price film from 1970.

Monster Kid Radio #023 - Tom Biegler and the killer fungus of Matango, Part One

Artist and monster kid Tom Biegler invited Derek to his home theater to watch a movie Derek had never seen before - 1963's Matango (dir. Ishirō Honda). Despite having a lifelong love of classic horror movies, Derek's experience with Japanese monsters has been limited up until recently. Tom is helping Derek to expand his monster movie horizons by sitting him down in front of a movie featuring one of Derek's near-phobias - mushrooms.

In Part Two of Monster Kid Radio's reaction to the Rolling Stone article "Best Monster Movies of All Time" by Alexis Murphy and Julian Ring, Derek looks harder at the list of "twenty horror classics" and considers what movies should end up on a list like this. And just how hard is it to define the word "Best" when creating these lists anyway? Also, Derek's been watching a few movies - Manfish (dir. W. Lee Wilder) and Beyond the Time Barrier (dir. Edgar G. Ulmer) - and responds to the show's first piece of email feedback.

Monster Kid Radio #021 - Reaction to Rolling Stone's Best Monster Movies of All Time list

In mid-July, Rolling Stone published on their website the article "Best Monster Movies of All Time" by Alexis Murphy and Julian Ring. At the very least, the list generated some . . . minor discussion on various message boards and forums. What movies were missed? What shouldn't have been on the list? Why exactly is Swamp Thing on there? In Part One of Monster Kid Radio's reaction to this list, Derek looks at the twenty films that made Rolling Stone's list, agreeing with some of the picks, but disagreeing with others.

Monster Kid Radio #020 - Paul McComas is Fit for a Frankenstein...and Son of Dracula

As the publisher of the 24-issue fanzine Lonny Jr., Paul McComas started writing about monsters before he was even a teenager, and he's still writing about them now. He co-wrote (with Greg Starrett) the short novel Fit for a Frankenstein as a tribute to all things Universal monsters with a particularly fond look at Bela Lugosi's portrayal of Ygor and the Frankenstein Monster as portrayed by Lon Chaney, Jr. Paul and Derek talk about the genesis of this book as well as another role Lon Chaney, Jr., undertook - the Son of Dracula in the film of the same name (dir. Robert Siodmak). Along the way, they also talk about Jack Pierce, early goth girls, and . . . buying used books?

Monster Kid Radio #019 - Lon Chaney, Jr., and Paul McComas

Creighton Tull Chaney left us July 12, 1973, and he left so many classic films behind for us to remember him by. This week's guest was such a fan of the work of Creighton, aka Lon Chaney, Jr., that he started a fanzine called Lonny Jr....before he was even a teenager! Paul McComas has been affected by Chaney's work throughout his life, and just recently released the short novel Fit for a Frankenstein (co-authored by Greg Starrett) which visits the classic Frankenstein's Monster during a time when it was portrayed by Lon Chaney, Jr. Paul is also a filmmaker, a public speaker, a teacher, and an advocate of RAINN, and has graciously taken some time to chat with us here at Monster Kid Radio. Lon wasn't just in werewolf films - Paul and Derek talk about other films in Chaney's filmography, Paul's favorite film of all time (it's not The Wolf Man), and how his own movie Blood of the Wolfman helped to finally solve Lawrence Talbot's curse while letting Paul pay tribute to a lost friend.

Not only do we talk about the Ymir and the life Harryhausen breathed into his creation, we also dip into the Sinbad films and talk about the difference between the adventure movies and the monster movies. Also, Derek talks about a movie he recently watched - The Headless Ghost (dir. Peter Graham Scott) - and announces a contest in which you can win a Blu-ray!

Our discussion with Scott Morris about Earth vs. The Flying Saucers (dir. Fred F.

Arch Hall, Sr.) at The Joy Cinema and Pub this past Wednesday. Two Monster Kid Radio listeners - Ray and Tom - share their Eegah experience, and during the movie, Derek snuck out for a quick Classic Five game with Jeff, the owner of the Joy. (The B-Movie Cast also just covered Earth vs. The Flying Saucers ths past Sunday with former Monster Kid Radio guest Stephen D. Sullivan, so make sure you go check that out, too!)

Monster Kid Radio #011 - Earth vs. The Flying Saucers vs. Scott Morris, Part 1

Week Two of Monster Kid Radio's Ray Harryhausen series continues when guest Scott Morris picks Earth vs. The Flying Saucers (dir. Fred F. Sears). Scott Morris is a podcaster (Disney, Indiana & 1951 Down Place) and longtime "star kid," and took some time away form his Disney duties to talk about this Harryhausen classic, his own introduction to the classic science fiction movies, and how he finds a way to feed his stomach and his love of science fiction at the same time at Walt Disney World. (The B-Movie Cast also just covered Earth vs. The Flying Saucers ths past Sunday with former Monster Kid Radio guest Stephen D. Sullivan, so make sure you go check that out, too!)

This week marks the passing of one of the best horror hosts around. Not only did he have an impact on Scott, but on countless other star and monster kids. Rest In Peace, Sammy Terry.

Monster Kid Radio #002 - Top Three Films from Karloff, Lugosi, and Agar (from Wonder Northwest)

Derek looks at the three actors whose names are part of the Monster Kid Radio slogan, and challenges himself to come up with a Top Three favorite film list for each one of them. As with the Top Three Favorite Monster Movie list from Episode #001, this proves to be difficult, and by the time this episode lands in the Monster Kid Radio feed, Derek will have probably changed his mind about at least one or two of the films mentioned! (This episode was recorded at Wonder Northwest last weekend, but before its release, director Eddie Romero passed away on May 28, 2013. RIP.)
