Canceled Too Soon #68 - Monster Squad (1976)


Listen Later

So get this: a college student installs a computer in a wax museum and the electric vibrations bring Dracula, Frankenstein and The Wolf Man back to life. Together they fight campy supervillains who would have been rejected from the 1960s BATMAN tv series in MONSTER SQUAD, a live-action Saturday morning superhero series that has nothing whatsoever to do with the cult classic movie THE MONSTER SQUAD, even though it sounds like it probably does.

Was MONSTER SQUAD... canceled too soon? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold put every episode of this bizarre pop culture curio on the slab and dissect it, describing every bizarre (and sometimes offensive) supervillain and having an extended debate on the differences between "monsters" and "ghoulies" as our HALLOWEEN MONSTOBER continues!
