Episode Details

Our historic crawl through a century of cinema continues! Listen along as I watch an endless stream of movies starring the same people in the same roles with different names! Movies so original you’ll forget which is which… almost all of these involve an evil genius. I guess we’re not the only era that is afraid of science.

This week we see mad scientists making evil kites, trying to turn solicitors into supermen, and operating the least efficient eugenics program ever. We get things from other worlds, IT coming from outerspace and beyond the stars. Crab monsters, giant lizards, and invisible aliens. Also, I watched The Bat for the third time!
