Episode 441: The Monster Music Special

This episode of the B-Movie cast is a bit different. Mary was going to be out of touch for 8-12 weeks with the nuclear plant shutdown she normally works. That didn’t happen because she retired from that gig due to concerns about working with a lot of people, in confined spaces for 12 hours a day, 6 days a week (and we’re glad she decided to quit that gig). However, in preparation for her outage we recorded a few episodes to have ‘in the can’. This is one of those episodes!

Special guest host for this show is Nik Havert! He’s the man behind the new book “The Golden Age of Disaster Cinema: A Guide to the Films, 1950-1979”. He also loves to introduce people to new music through his blog – 7th Level Music (http://www.7thlevelmusic.com/). So we asked him to do a special music cast for the show! Tune and check out some of Nik’s favorite monster themed music!

Also- for a bit of fun- check out this video from artist Casey Knoll. Casey did the cover for the new “B-Movie Cookbook: The 1960s” and she created a video showing how she worked her magic! It’s amazing to see the images come to life and it’s also got a kicking-60s theme-song montage to accompany it!

Episode 425: The Swarm

The B Movie Cast is back! This episode is going to be a disaster but in a good way! Special guest Nik Havert joins Mary and the other Nic to talk about his new book on disaster movies from the 50s through the 70s. The team is also checking out the film that bought Michael Caine’s Mom a house… and did little good for anyone else: The Swarm! Yes, it’s killer bees and an all-star cast! The perfect combination for success… if only the movie wasn’t so bad!
