Monster Kid Radio

From the Rose City Comic Con Program: The 70s saw a massive resurgence of the classic monster in a new and powerful way. From Blacksploitation films like Blacula and Sugar Hill where the vampire and zombie were used to talk to new generation, to Count Yorga who showed us a terrifying glimpse into a Manson like monster, and to the small screen with The Nightstalker...the classic creatures were brought back to (un)life in modern times and spoke to modern problems. This panel will cover the way pop culture turned gothic for inspiration and how these modern classics influence today's creators....

More Episodes

The work of Jack Pierce is undeniably one of the cornerstones of what we as monster kids LOVE, and while we here at Monster Kid Radio Headquarters might know a few things about the man, we could certainly stand to learn more. Fortunately filmmaker Strephon Taylor is here to help us with his new documentary Jack Pierce, The Maker of Monsters. This new release from November Fire relates Pierce's early life, his incredible career, and even some of his activities away from the make-up chair. After learning a bit about Stephon's background as a monster kid, and a lot more about Jack Pierce, Derek and Strephon go over their top three favorite Jack Pierce make-up designs. Also, Derek mentions two upcoming Monster Kid Radio Crashes happening in the Portland area!
