For episode 222, Chad chooses the often overlooked spectacle from Toho and Ishiro Honda, THE MYSTERIANS (1957).

For a Mr. B.I.G. feature, the […]

The hot glue renders the bullets harmless, but wood turns the […]
“You didn’t mean it. You never mean it. You didn’t mean it the time when you put up the bouquet with the get-well card in the funeral parlor. And sent the black lillies to the old lady in the hospital, you didn’t mean it. But this time, I, Gravis Mushnick, mean it!” Hmmm, Gravis Mushnick? […]
‘You see sin and the devil! But the lord has told us what to do about it. Said Matthew in Chapter Five, “If thine eye offends thee . . . pluck it out! . . . Pluck it out! . . . Pluck it out!”’ Ah, yes. Punishment, Biblical style. Join this episode’s Grue-Crew – […]

You can’t even tell brother from sister unless you meet ’em head-on.” Don’t worry. This neanderthal doesn’t last long. Join […]

Of course, there’s no such thing as giant spiders. Join this […]
