Episode 484: The Rocky Horror Picture Show


Mary may not like musicals, but in this episode of The B-Movie Cast, Nic and special guest Mark Mawston have found one movie musical that she can enjoy: the cult classic “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”. That’s right, we’re taking a trip to transsexual Transylvania and checking out Tim Curry’s most iconic roll! So, grab a stiff drink and put on your dancing shoes because we’re about to rock-n-roll with the longest-running film in history: “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”!

Episode 482: The Face Behind the Mask


Hey B-Movie Cast family! In this episode Mary and Nic are joined by Juan from the creepy swamps! We check out a classic bit of film noir: “The Face Behind the Mask” from 1941. Great film starring Peter Lorre and Evelyn Keyes. Lorre is an immigrant coming to America to make a new life, only a tragic fire leaves him horribly disfigured. Now he must turn to a life of crime to survive. Will the love of a beautiful woman save him or is it too late for “The Face Behind the Mask”?

Episode 480: Killer Crocodile


The B-Movie Cast is back! In this episode Mary and Nic are joined by Dr. Adrian Smith. Adrian takes a break from lecturing at the University of Sussex to help us figure out how many environmentalists does it take to kill one crocodile? The answer is one if it’s Anthony Crenna (yes, he’s Richard Crenna’s son) in the Italian 80s horror romp “Killer Crocodile”. We’re diving headfirst into the radioactive waters of an unnamed river in the Dominican Republic so we can see what happens when you want to rip off “Jaws” but can’t afford a mechanical shark. So, grab your Bat-anti-crocodile spray, a cold beverage, and join us as we take a bite out of “Killer Crocodile”.

Episode 464: Black Sunday- Dedicated to John Richardson


The B-Movie Cast is back with a very special episode. In January 2021 actor John Richardson passed from Covid-19. John was a friend of cast favorite, Mark Mawston. Mark asked if we could do a show dedicated to John and look at one of the actor’s favorite films: “Black Sunday” (AKA “The Mask of The Demon”).
