The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s time to head back to Karlsbruck! Or is it Karlstadt? Who knows? In this episode, “The Invisible Dan” and “Monster Mike” discuss the return of Peter Cushing as the abominable Victor Frankenstein, Hammer’s distribution deal with Universal Pictures and the subsequent ret-con of their Frankenstein continuity, the additional footage and storyline shot specifically for American television, and why The Evil of Frankenstein still manages to be fun despite its shortcomings.

The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb (1964) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s time for yet another mummy movie! Join “The Invisible Dan” and “Monster Mike” as they head back to ancient Egypt to discuss Michael Carreras sliding into the director’s chair, his lackluster script, the awful Mummy costume, and why a few brilliant performances (*ahem* Fred Clark *ahem*), some amped up violence, and a shocking third act twist make The Curse of the Mummy’s Tomb somewhat watchable.
