Monster Kid Radio #484 - Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man with Ricardo Delgado
Monster Kid Radio
How has Monster Kid Radio gone over 480 episodes and NOT covered 1943's Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (dir. Roy William Neill)?!? Let's correct that this week with special guest Ricardo Delgado! Ricardo and Derek discuss this iconic film, break down WHY it's iconic, and how it influenced the course of the rest of the monster movies to come after it. On top of that, Kenny also has another amazing Look at Famous Monsters of Filmland this week!

Monster Kid Radio #483 - Meet Monster Kid Rob Hampton, co-director of Super 8 Daze

Rob is the co-director of Super 8 Daze (with co-director John Morgan), and this week, he joins Derek for a conversation about his background, his career, and much more.

Monster Kid Radio
Disney, Indiana's Tracey Morris steps outside the House of the Mouse this week for a stop by Monster Kid Radio to discuss 1940's The Invisible Woman (dir. A. Edward Sutherland). What do they see in this film? Insert obvious joke about not being able to see anything here. Kenny also returns this week with a special Look at Famous Monsters of Filmland.

Monster Kid Radio
Trust us. Derek and this week's guest, filmmaker Seb Godin, DO talk about 1971's Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (dir. Seth Holt, Michael Carreras) in this episode of Monster Kid Radio. But they also talk about other Hammer films, ideas for future episodes of Monster Kid Radio, Seb's new movie Blood Rites of the Vampyr and his upcoming movie Abominations of Frankenstein (check out the Kickstarter now!).

Monster Kid Radio
We've got a double dose of kaiju action this week on Monster Kid Radio! First, Kyle Yount drops by to talk with Derek about the upcoming virtual event Kaiju Con-Line. There's no G-Fest this year, but Kaiju Con-Line is looking to scratch that kaiju festival itch! Then, author Anthony Wendel discusses one of the coolest submarine movies you'll ever see - 1965's Atragon (dir. Ishirō Honda). There's also Listener Feedback, a musical . . . interlude (?), and Kenny's Look at Famous Monsters of Filmland.
