Episode 467: Dos Monjes (Two Monks)


B-Movie Cast fans get ready for spooky fun from south of the border! In this episode, Mary, Nic, and Juan check out another classic Mexican thriller: “Dos Monjes” (“Two Monks”).

So, grab your favorite beer, get in that comfy chair and get ready for some fun with “Two Monks” on the B-Movie Cast!

Episode 452: Neutron VS the Death Robots

Hello friends and welcome to the newest episode of the B-Movie cast. This is a special episode as we are dedicating it to the memory of a dear friend of the show, B-Movie fan and friend, Scott Turk. Scott passed away just before we recorded this cast, so we wanted to dedicate it to his memory. If you would like to honor Scott’s memory, please make a donation in his name to one of these charities: Doctors Without Borders, Water.org, or Georgia Public Broadcasting. Scott was a true Monster Kid and a friend to us all and he will be missed.

For this episode Mary, Nic, and Juan head south of the border to check out a Luchador style hero, who never enters the ring! He’s Neutron the Atomic Superman and he’s out to stop some easy bake over zombies and a mad scientist (also in a Luchador mask) in “Neutron VS the Death Robots”. It’s got everything you would expect from the title… except of course for robots, they’re really baked zombies… but anyway, it’s lots of fun! So, get ready for monsters and mayhem from Neutron, the discount Santo!

Episode 449: Shield for Murder

In this episode, Mary and Nic are joined by Juan and together the gang is going to take on a dame hungry killer-cop who’s gone berserk with the 1954 film noir: “Shield for Murder”! This gem stars Edmond O’Brien and John Agar, plus a host of familiar faces like Marla English and Morticia Adams herself- Carolyn Jones! The gang also spends a lot of time trying to convince Mary that 256 gigabytes is a lot of storage space for a cell phone! So grab a tasty beverage, pop some corn and tune in to this episode of the B-Movie Cast!

Episode 438: Ator The Fighting Eagle

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.
