Gamera: Guardian of the Universe (1995)

Gamera: Guardian of the Universe (1995)

Gyaos is eating the people of Japan and only Gamera can save the day! Peak kaiju cinema that had Gamera challenging Godzilla for king of the '90s monsters; thanks in large part to the masterful special effects of Shinji Higuchi (SHIN GODZILLA).

The Toxic Avenger (1984)

The Toxic Avenger (1984)

A tutu-wearing mutant fights crime in the wasteland of '80s America. An ultra violent film that certainly ain't for the squeamish! But you may be surprised by its critique of Americans' obsession with violence and mass consumerism. We conclude our so-bad-it's-good series with this quintessential cult classic. Thanks for listening, friends!

Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)

Dubbed the worst movie ever made - does it live up to the hype? What are plans 1-8?? Are we indeed living in the future??? More questions than answers in Ed Wood's film about aliens who raise the dead to warn humanity about the dangers of nuclear war. Sure, why not? Thanks for listening, friends!

Of Unknown Origin (1983)

Of Unknown Origin (1983)

Is the psychological-comedy a thing? The guy from ROBOCOP battles a vicious rat in his NYC apartment, and has an existential crisis along the way. Often overlooked when discussing '80s horror flicks, is this one due for reappraisal? Thanks for listening, friends!

Orca: The Killer Whale (1977)

Orca: The Killer Whale (1977)

Whale whale whale... an orca flips out and seeks revenge on humanity. Not to spout our own blowhole, but is this more than a shallow JAWS rip-off and somehow a fintastic Shakespearean tragedy? The boats sink and the legs chomped in this fish tale from producer Dino De Laurentiis (KING KONG 1976), with music by Ennio Morricone, and starring Richard Harris. Thanks for listening, friends!

The Birds (1963) feat. Brian De Young

King Kong (1933)

The big ape turns 90 and we're celebrating in a big way! Perhaps the first kaiju film, KING KONG set other firsts in special effects, music, and screaming beauties. The good, the bad, and the campy: it's on full display in Kong, The Eighth Wonder of the World!

Editor's Note: Following World War I, Japan did gain control over Germany's south Pacific territories; however, Japan was not granted its requested "racial equality clause" in the Treaty of Versailles (1919). This clause, while supported by France and Italy, was vetoed by Great Britain and the United States (Axelrod, 2019).
