Episode 519: Beginning of the End


The B-Movie cast makes it big, really BIG when Mary, Nic and returning guest Bill Mize, check out the 1957, Bert I. Gordon classic “Beginning of the End”. Thrill to giant grasshoppers battling stock footage of the US military while trying not to fall off pictures of famous buildings! Yes, it’s some old school B-movie fun that features Peter Graves and a bevy of actors you’ve seen before, even if you don’t remember their names… don’t worry though, Mary wants to talk about each and every one of them! So, call your friends on your 1957 Chrysler New Yorker car phone and let them know you’re checking out “The Beginning of the End” on the B-Movie Cast!

Episode 446: Earth Vs the Spider (AKA- The Spider)

In this episode of The B-Movie Cast, Mary and Nic are joined by Eric Brooks. Though Eric’s specialty is all things Egyptian, he decided to join us for something BIG, and by “BIG” we mean Bert I. Gordon. The gang are checking out one of Mr. B.I.G.’s big creature features: “Earth Vs the Spider” (AKA- “The Spider”). It’s a tale of one giant arachnid who just wants to make some new friends. Unfortunately, by making friends we mean sucking all the juice from their bodies and leaving them dead, dried up husks!
This film is a classic of 50’s sci-fi/horror and it’s a whole lot of fun to watch! So grab your favorite BIG beverage and maybe that extra BIG popcorn and tune for this episode of The B-Movie Cast!
