Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 129, "In the Mouth of Madness"
April 10, 2024 06:00 - 1 hour - 57.7 MBThe crew lose their minds over John Carpenter's 1994, "In the Mouth of Madness", and get all "Lovecrafty" . . . so be prepared for the usual diversions and rabbit holes. Dave's cocktail, like the village of Hobb’s End, seems sweet (and somewhat bland) on the surface, but will get you in the end. "Hobb’s End Punch" 2 oz dark rum (Cruzan blackstrap rum) 1 oz lemon juice 1 oz pineapple juice 1 oz grenadine .5 oz simple syrup SEVERAL dashes of Angostura bitters (Note - if you add orange ju...
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 128, "Hereditary"
March 27, 2024 05:00 - 1 hour - 63 MBWhew. The crew watched Ari Aster's "2018 Hereditary" shortly after its release, and were so shaken by it that they vowed never to watch it again. So . . . here they go again! Gluttons for punishment - and devotees of well crafted movies - they girdled their loins, strode forth into the maelstrom and subjected themselves to its unique "charms". All for YOU, dear listener. All for you. Mary's cocktail was needed. The "Scorched Body" cocktail 1.5 oz. Laphroaig Scotch – or a similar “peaty...

February 28, 2024 06:00 - 35 minutes - 24.4 MBAs the crew prepare to record a slew of new episodes, we offer up this selection of dramatized "adventures" from past seasons.

January 10, 2024 06:00 - 1 hour - 60.6 MBTo kick off the New Year, Scott, Mary and Dave buckle themselves in, drink a glass of Tang and blast into the outer space, where they experience the horrors of 1997's "Event Horizon". Mary gushes over Sam Neill repeatedly, but you knew that was going to happen, didn't you? Actually, no Tang was consumed during this recording, but plenty of Mary's cocktail was. “Gouged Eye” cocktail 2 oz White Rum 1/2 oz Maraschino Liqueur 3/4 oz Lime juice 1/2 oz fresh-squeezed Grapefruit juice (Dave an...

Murderous computer HAL Jr is once again making his presence known. If only it had been "presents", but we don't think HAL Jr celebrates the season. Ah, well. For his holiday cocktail, Dave combines suitable "Russian" ingredients and it ends up tasting like cheap Port wine. Dave LIKES che...

December 13, 2023 06:00 - 1 hour - 59.7 MBThe crew goes Old School and watches the classic kaiju, 1956's 'Rodan". Scott can't hide his anger at the filmmaker's confusion and misrepresentation of the noble Pteranodon/ Pterodactyl and goes on a frothing diatribe. The cocktail was inspired by Scott's faulty memory regarding Rodan's breath and his overall anger at the creature's "scientific" classification. “Pteranodon Imposter” cocktail. 1 oz. Amaretto 2 oz “Fireball” whiskey liqueur 3 oz Egg Nog Dusting of cinnamon, sugar & nutme...

September 25, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 79.7 MBOur dear friend Alex Taylor, that wacky Englishman living in Texas, joins us for a spirited discussion of Tom Savini's 1990 remake of "Night of the Living Dead", and we talk FOREVER! Seriously! Unlike the last episode, Dave only messes up someone's name ONE time, mistakenly referring to actor Duane Jones (Ben from the original 1968 "Night of the Living Dead") as Duane Johnson. Blast . . . Scott makes a beer cocktail - and its pretty damned tasty! "Uncle Rege's Recipe" beer cocktail In ...
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 114, "Jacob's Ladder"
September 06, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 62.6 MBWhew! The crew watch Adrian Lyne's "Jacob Ladder", which is a heartbreaking journey though the experience of memory, trauma . . . and the great unknown. The only thing to lighten the mood was our usual fall down various rabbit holes, another early garage band memory and Dave's continuing mispronunciation of Lyne's last name. Mary's cocktail was a keeper! “Demon Tail” cocktail 2.5 oz Spiced Rum 1 oz Cointreau 3 oz Pineapple Juice 1 oz Orange Juice 1 oz Sweetened Cream of Coconut .5 oz Lim...
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 113, "Kwaidan"
August 24, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 79.7 MBThe crew watch 1964's "Kwaidan", a thoroughly striking Japanese ghost anthology movie that is over 3 hours long - and if you guessed that this is a LONG episode, you would be right. Good for you! Dave's strong cocktail may have contributed to some tumbles down a few rabbit holes, but hey, at this point, does it even matter? Between listener questions, musings on Post-WW2 Japan and the usual distractions, there is a LOT to take in. Enjoy! "Kwaidan" cocktail - a modified Manhattan. In a mi...
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 112, "Trauma"
August 09, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 70.1 MBFriend of the podcast, John "Fading Arcader", joins the crew to help them deal with Dario Argento's 1993 "Trauma". John is the one who introduced us to the movie and pointed out that it was shot in Minneapolis, so . . . in many ways, this whole episode is his fault . . .

Blue Curacao Strawberry slice for Garnish 1.Fill Collins glass with ice. 2.Mix ...

Monster Movie Happy Hour Ep. 110, "Rabid, 1977"
July 12, 2023 05:00 - 1 hour - 64.4 MBThe crew watch 1977's "Rabid" by David Cronenberg, and despite HAL Jr's best attempts at sabotaging Mary's computer and phone, they manage to record their thoughts and sip Dave's variation on the whiskey sour- yes, that's right. ANOTHER whiskey sour for ANOTHER Cronenberg.

SOMEBODY fell asleep before we could record the "Tail End" of the episode (no bird pun intended), so, several hectic moving days later, Mary had to join us from The Deep Dark Lounge East to wrap it up. Also - Scott's second cocktail was a hit! "The Giant Claw" Margarita In a blender with 5-6 ice cubes, combine and blend until smooth: 15 oz. bag o...

December 07, 2022 06:00 - 1 hour - 71 MBIn this first (and possibly LAST) Random Picks episode, the crew lose their tiny minds, as evidenced by the fact that they left the selection of the movie AND the cocktail to chance! The movie, drawn from Dave's WW1 helmet, was 1983's "The Final Terror", which was first recommended by screenwriter C. Robert Cargill and gifted to us by our dear friend Tom, turned out to be a lot of fun. Did we mention this is a LONG episode? When it came to drinks, the cocktail ingredients were randomly ro...

August 10, 2022 05:00 - 1 hour - 68.9 MBThe crew - minus Scott, who was "engaged" elsewhere - had a blast at Joe Bob's Drive In Jamboree in Memphis, and this messy recording proves it. Our friends Tom and John join in via Zoom, and then we wrap up with clips from the actual Malco Summer Drive In, with "appearances" by Jonah Ray, C. Robert Cargill and several fellow Monster Kids and Mutants. The audio was problematic on this one, but we think it is still worth your time. Cheers!
