Episode 448: Flash Gordon

The B-Movie Cast is back and we’re ready to save the Earth from Ming The Merciless because on this episode we take on the cult classic 1980 “Flash Gordon” produced by Dino De Laurentiis! Joining Mary and Nic to talk about all camp sci-fi fun is Eric Brooks! Eric and Nic both saw “Flash” in the theater when it was released so it holds a special, Queen-sound-track-filled place in their hearts. Surprisingly enough, even though this year is the 40th anniversary of the film’s release, Mary had never seen it!

So set your watches to Mingo-Mean-Time and get ready for the most lavishly costumed, British-actor-filled, adaptation of the classic Sunday cartoon serial you will ever find!
