How does this connect with Avengers: Infinity War? As always, it's a SPOILER-FILLED discussion, so make sure you see the movie before you hop into the podcast!

He reviews a fascinating book, Where Monsters Walked: California Locations of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films, 1925 - 1965 by Gail and Raymond Orwig. It is a must-have for anyone who is a genre film buff that always wondered where classic and cult movies were filmed. The Orwigs tracked down scores of locations in California, and the book has photos comparing then and now. Famous sites such as Bronson Caves and Vasquez Rocks are included, along with many lesser known gems. It's a perfect companion for a California road trip. This book can be found at Amazon.com or from the publisher, McFarland Books. Thanks for listening!
