The B-Movie Cast decides to get our feet wet this episode when we check out “Island of the Fishmen” (Italian: L’isola degli uomini pesce)! Joining Mary and Nic is special guest, is podcaster and cool man-about-town, Bill Mize. This Italian flick from 1979 had a bunch of walking-in-the-jungle scenes cut and gratuitous amounts of Cameron Mitchell added in, but it still flopped in the US. Even the often scantily clad Bond girl, Barbara Bach couldn’t save it. That said, the film boasts some surprisingly good special effects and more fishmen than Red Lobster on a Friday night. So, grab some tarter sauce and get ready for some fun with “Island of the Fishmen” on the B-Movie Cast!

The B-Movie Cast is back! This time it’s all hands-on deck as Mary, Nic, and Juan check out “The Beast with Five Fingers”. This 1946 classic stars Peter Lorre, Robert Alda, and Andrea King though the real star is a creepy, killer hand! Figure out if it’s truly a monster or just a killer with a fetish for fingers as the B-Movie Cast checks out “The Beast with Five Fingers”!

The B-Movie Cast is back again! This time we’re getting our furry-80s loin clothes out and tackling “YOR: Hunter from the Future”. As the theme song tells you he’s a man of mystery and always on the run, but we caught up with him!
Joining Mary and Nic is Dr. Adrian Smith. He’s back because he wasn’t happy with just 89 minutes worth of English language YOR- nope, he found the 210-minute-long, 4 part, Italian miniseries that was the original running length of this film!
So if you have an urge to see actor Reb Brown run through the desert and fight really slow, awkwardly moving dinosaurs then you’re in luck with this episode! But be warned, Reb Brown’s voice will occasionally comment on the show with his famous ‘cover up the burp’ line from the film! So grab a beer, heat up that TV dinner and sit back and enjoy the B-Movie Cast’s take on “YOR: Hunter from the Future” and while you’re at it, think about which of the sports you want to try out in the YOR-Olympics!

It’s a new episode of The B-Movie Cast and this week Mary and Nic have a special guest: Dr. Smith! No, not the creepy one from “Lost in Space”. This is Dr. Adrian Smith, film historian and lecturer at The University of Sussex in the U.K.
Adrian has come down from his castle in Sussex to talk about the sword and sorcery ‘mock-buster’ that is “Ator: The Fighting Eagle” from 1982. This film has everything: magical swords (that aren’t that magical), evil wizards, monsters, Amazon women, a cute little bear cub and don’t forget miles and miles of Miles O’Keefe!
So sit back and get ready for some Italian knock-off fantasy film fun with “Ator: The Fighting Eagle”… oh and try not to worry about him not really being an eagle… that’s one of those things it’s best not to dwell on.
