Marshal & I Find Monsters Among The White Rocks

Over at the Outfield Excursions podcast, Marshal Latham and I review the 1959 low-budget horror film, THE MONSTER OF PIEDRAS BLANCAS, no doubt one of your favorites.  We have so little to say about it, though, that I change lanes to talk about a little-seen John Cusack adventure, HOT PURSUIT.

Check it out HERE.

Marshal And I Talk About KRULL (1983)


A while back, Marshal and I watched KRULL, an ambitious 1983 Sci-Fi/Fantasy movie hoping to be the next STAR WARS.  But did STAR WARS have The Glaive?

Seems like a long time ago, but you can check out our review HERE.

Marshal & Rish Pull Out The Big Guns (of Navarone)

Marshal and I finally got around to watching 1961's THE GUNS OF NAVARONE, starring Gregory Peck and David Niven.  And then we talked.

Marshal & Rish Try X-Ray Specs

And you, what do you want to see?


Here's another Outfield Excursions between Marshal and me, over at his Journey Into... podcast.  

Once again, we've got a Roger Corman-directed Ray Milland film to talk about.  This time, it's THE MAN WITH THE X-RAY EYES, from 1963.  Doctor Xavier uses an experimental formula to improve his range of eyesight . . . but at what cost?   

Check out our review HERE.

Marshal and I Fear "Premature Burial"

I mean, don't you?  If the answer is no, then we should end our vacation right here.

Over at the Outfield Excursions podcast, Marshal Latham and I talk about Roger Corman's THE PREMATURE BURIAL, a movie he tried to do on his own, without American International Pictures (and hence, he couldn't afford Vincent Price in the lead).*  Of course, when he shopped it around, the studio that bought distribution rights was, you guessed it, AIP.  

Anyway, based(ish) on Edgar Allan Poe's story of the same name, this 1962 flick tells of Guy (Ray Milland), who is terrified of being buried alive, and the woman who tries to reason with him.  There's nothing to fear in that, right?  Check out our review HERE.

*There were seven films in the Poe cycle, and Price starred in six of them.

Rish and Marshal Pass Through THE GATE (1987)

A long while back, Marshal and I watched an Eighties horror flick with Stephen Dorff called THE GATE.   

It was a PG-13 horror flick about a gateway to the underworld in a suburban kid's yard from 1987.  Somehow, I never saw it.  Till now.  Check out the fun HERE, if you dare.


These creatures were really impressive, as little as they appeared in the film.  Note: Nice to see that Vin Diesel had steady work back in 1987.

Marshal and I (and Valerian) Visit A Thousand Planets

Hey, do you remember that Luc Besson movie, VALERIAN & THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS (the first installment in the vaunted Valerian and Lorelei series)?  Well, once upon a time, Marshal Latham and I watched it, then talked about it on the Outfield Excursions podcast.

Is it as awful as we'd been lead to believe?  Come along with us, to at least fifty or sixty planets, won't you?  Check it out HERE.

Marshal and I Review BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS

Over on the Outfield Excursions show (part of the Journey Into... channel), Marshal Latham and I talk about BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS, a Roger Corman-produced Sci-Fi adventure starring Johnboy Walton and John Saxon, from 1980.  Is it a rip-off of STAR WARS or a rip-off of THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN?  Can it be both?

Check it out HERE!
