Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 170, "Lady in White"
The crew spend an eternity talking about 1988's "Lady in White", with just a few rabbit holes. Go figure?! “White Lady” cocktail 1.5 oz Gin 1 oz Orange Liqueur .5 oz lemon juice .5 oz single syrup (optional) Egg white Combine all ingredients in shaker. Shake 15 seconds. Add ice, shake again until cold. Strain into chilled martini glass. Enjoy! Visit our website:…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 169, "Night Fright"
The crew dive into 1967's "Night Fright" - not 1985's "Fright Night", with Roddy McDowell - and literally have trouble seeing the Hairy Gator Monster and B-movie stalwart John Agar, who is truly the best part of this underexposed, underwritten dreck . . . Yikes. The "Mutated Alligator" cocktail 2.5 tbsp lemon concentrate 2 oz. rum, preferably pineapple or coconut. 12 oz. Lone Star Beer (or a light…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 168, The Descent"

Aperol 2 dash Angostura bitters 1 1/3 oz. tonic water Combine the whiskey, lemon juice, Aperol, and Angostura bitters in a cocktail shaker over ice.…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 167, "Destroy All Neighbors"
The crew deal with noisy and unruly neighbors in this episode . . . all while chatting about Prog Rock and 2024's splatter horror comedy, "Destroy All Neighbors". The "William Brown" cocktail Ingredients: 1 oz vodka 1 oz butterscotch schnapps ½ oz blue curaçao 3 oz cherry cola or cola ½ oz grenadine Instructions: 1. Shake everything except cherry cola and grenadine in a cocktail shaker. 2. Pour…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 166, "Forbidden Planet" with Marshall Julius
Our dear friend, the film critic, blogger, broadcaster, quizmaster and collector of colourful plastic things, Marshall Julius, joins us for our chat about 1956's "Forbidden Planet" and we had damned fine time! We sipped Bourbon and Scotch, so there were no cocktails this time around. Note - Marshall is the co-author (with veteran special makeup effects king Howard Berger) of the book "Making…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 165, "The Prince of Darkness"
For Dave's belated birthday episode we gathered around the swirling tube of liquid evil and watched John Carpenter's 1987, "The Prince of Darkness". Our cocktail was tasty enough, though it COULD have looked SO much cooler . . . "Sweet Sleeper" cocktail 1 part white rum 1 part pineapple juice 1/2 part simple syrup 1/4 part green crème de menthe Dash of orange bitters Orange slice for garnish Shake…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 164, "The Deadly Spawn"
All right, you nerds - step into the dripping, wet Deep Dark Lounge, grab a drink and listen to our chat about 1983's "The Deadly Spawn". This episode is for folks who can enjoy a movie shot on 16mm film, made largely by amateurs on a $25,000 budget in the pre-CGI age, chock-full of fake blood and surprisingly good creature design and practical effects. The "Mother Spawn Sling" 75 oz. gin .25 oz.…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 163, "The Premature Burial"
For our first episode of the new year we dig down deep (ya like that alliteration?) into Roger Corman's "The Premature Burial", and have a Hell of a good time! “Dirt Nap” cocktail 1.5 oz rum 1.5 oz Kahlua 3 oz chocolate milk 1-2 maraschino cherries Crushed/powdered Graham Crackers or Oreos. Ice Rim Old Fashioned glass with crushed graham crackers or Oreos. Fill glass with ice and add, in order:…
Monster Movie Happy Hour, Ep. 162, "Messiah of Evil"
Merry, SCARY Christmas! We actually recorded this episode in late October, so it has a strong Halloween vibe, and in case you wondered, the irony of releasing an episode about 1973's "The Messiah of Evil" on Christmas day is NOT lost on us . . . purely coincidental, too! "Point Dune Wallbanger" 1.5 oz Vodka 1 oz Galliano 3 oz Blood Orange juice Shake with crushed ice Pour into Old Fashioned glass…
