Classic Horrors Club

The power of Satan compels you... to listen to this month's episode of The Classic Horrors Club podcast! You'll learn how, at the peak of 1970s "Satanic Panic," three movies had more in common than simple devil worship: The Brotherhood of Satan (1971), The Devil's Rain (1975), and Race with the Devil (1975.)

.

Jeff and Richard have one of their biggest disagreements about one of them, but escape the podcast without bloodshed. The latter laments an abundance of stupid decisions, while the former insists there wouldn't be any movies without them. What would Shatner do?!? (or Lara Parker?!?)

Jeff and Rich travel through time and space once more for the summer. This time, it's the Riviera Drive-In in Oklahoma City, OK, circa 1977. The monsters are on the revolt and the world is on the brink of destruction as we watch Godzilla vs. the Cosmic Monster (aka Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla), Kingdom of the Spiders, and Night of the Damned (aka Messiah of Evil.)

Along the way, we welcome our dear friend and kaiju expert Jonathan Angarola, revel in the awesomeness of one of the best "nature gone wild" films, and dive deep into the fascinating making-of story of an unintentional horror classic.

We highly recommend you also check out the video companion on our YouTube channel. It contains content (movie clips, bonus features, and outtakes) from the audio podcast that you don't want to miss!

Jeff and Rich travel through time and space once again this month to visit the drive-in. This time, it's the Moonlite Drive-In in Smithfield, PA, circa 1974. We have a bloody good time discussing Doctor Blood's Coffin (1961), Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971), and Theater of Blood (1973.)

.

Which one is your favorite? Ours may surprise you. We invite you to join the conversation and let us know what you thought about it afterward (feedback opportunities below.) Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to visit Snack Canyon for some delicious treats!

It's that time of year and your backyard isn't the only place where the creepy crawlies come out at night. On a hot summer night in 1957, the South 29 Drive-In in Charlotte, NC, was invaded by giant spiders, preying mantises, and crabs.

.

Through the magic of modern technology, Jeff and Rich travel not only halfway across the country, but also 64 years into the past, to attend the drive-in and watch big monsters on the big screen: Tarantula (1956), The Deadly Mantis (1957), and Attack of the Crab Monsters (1957.)

.

Will they survive? Will you, when you listen to this month's episode of The Classic Horrors Club Podcast? You also don't want to miss our video companion on YouTube, especially this month, because if you like hearing the sounds of the drive-in, you're going to love seeing the sights...

This month we return to a classic horror profile with the star of Dr. Renault's Secret (1942), Fog Island (1945), and Lured (1947), George Zucco. Known as a "spellbinder" on stage and "one-take Zucco" on screen, George Zucco carried a magnificent presence, but was always a gentleman.

.

Although he was a neighbor of Lionel Atwill, they didn't share the same social life. Nevertheless, the author of Hollywood Babylon II claimed Zucco's final days were just as scandalous. What really happened? Jeff and Richard will set the story straight (with a little help from printed reference materials called, "books.")

.

Come for the discussion of three mid-40s Universal, uh... classics, then stay for the speculation about the future of physical media collecting. Join Jeff, Richard, and Paula the Ape Woman, with an assist by Joe Carson (thank you, Joe), as they watch and enjoy Captive Wild Woman (1943), Jungle Woman (1944), and The Jungle Captive (1945.)

.

Yes, "enjoy." These three films sometimes get a bad rap, but there are worse Universal monster movies, even if we can't think of one for sure off the top of our heads.

You, without knowing, can commit murder...

Bring a can of WD-40 to oil that squeaky door and join Jeff and Richard as they examine the Inner Sanctum franchise from books to radio to movies to TV. With a focus on the 6-film Universal Pictures film series of the mid-1940s starring Lon Chaney Jr., there are some differences about how your hosts would rank them, but they agree they're all worth watching. Afterwards, we're sure you'll have "pleasant dreams, hmmmmm?"

Strap yourselves in; it's going to be a topsy-turvy, shaky, wet ride as Jeff and Richard have fun with three disaster films of the 1970s: The Poseidon Adventure (1972), Earthquake (1974), and Airport '77 (1977.) Don't worry, we'll all survive. There's got to be a morning after... if we hang on through the night...

Happy Holidays! Rich and Jeff end the year with a special holiday surprise: a bonus episode of the Classic Horrors Club Podcast!

.

If he doesn't make it clear, Rich absolutely loves the 1951 version of A Christmas Carol starring Alistair Sim. However, Jeff recently watched it for the very first time. Join the conversation as they discuss what many consider to be the definitive version of the classic holiday ghost story.
