I watched tge original Salems Lot with David Soul again the other day....still creeps me out. That window scene.
Cheers folks, let us know your watches!
Welcome Back Davy, Cheers
you own a bono shirt, i vote you off flat earth
Just saw Talk To Me... scary stuff 👍
Me too it was good!
Really enjoyed this episode, thank you👌 I have watched a lot of rubbish this month but my highlights were Lust For a Vampire and Dolls. Also started watching the Harry Potter films, which surprisingly am enjoying 😂
Jamie, you're not alone. I've been watching The Rockford Files, too.
"She's kind of pretty, from the left..." Too funny!!!
I've been on a Claudia Jennings binge lately. The Great Texas Dynamite Chase is definitely her best. Moonshine County Express and Deathsport are pretty good too. Gator Bait? Eh...just for the outfit.
🌠 heavy metal parking lot..seen it..I went 2 the new jersey show on that tour 8/1986...my 1st concert..from a major band..(meadowlands)
I know that comedies don't get covered on the Monster's Den, but I recently did a deep dive on the Marx Brothers and holy shit, those guys were bonkers. Absurdist comedy at its peak and just chaotic scenes left and right. Really excellent stuff.
Well, Dan and I talked Laurel and Hardy here! I love the Marx Brothers. MOSTLY the early ones before they got a bit indulgent with harp solos and romantic musical interludes. Duck Soup, Animal Crackers, A Day At The Races....world class. Some of Night At The Opera too. Groucho and Margaret Dumont together...unreal.
Thanks, everyone, for taking the time and sharing some of your recent watching experiences. These episodes always add an item (or more) to the viewing list. Great show and the usual fun. Thanks again.
These non-specific shows are great fun, especially when there’s a full panel of the beloved folk we expect to see on The Monster’s Den. Many thanks, I’m now buying more shelf space.
I vaguely remember that series Dan was referring to it was called Fallen Angels which ran over here in the UK in the mid 90's, I particularly remember the episode with Brendan Fraser as a lift operator/hitman.
Can't lie...came across Buffy recently and I'm back in!
Again.🤷
Meat Cleaver Massacre sounds like the equivalent of movie catfishing.
Just finished watching all the Black Mirror episodes that Jamie was talking about 2 weeks ago. I am now mid way through the 3rd season of The Witcher on Netflix. Nice show gentlemen. Enjoy the Monster Den!
Another great show, thanks. I recently watched a film called 'The Ninth Gate' starting Johnny Depp & Frank Langella from 1999, directed by Polanski. It was better than expected, and a copy is available at the moment on this platform
Davy - love the t-shirt👏👏Iconic t-shirt of a fantastic record label.
Cheers my man - not the most SOT-like but I love the Stiff scene. Where pub-rock meets punk meets new wave!
@@DavysFlicks Ain't that the truth👌. Well I love SOT yet my favourite album is All Mod Cons by The Jam (closely followed by NMTB). Keep up the great work, essential viewing.
I have just rewatched A DARK SONG, a brilliant Irish horror occult movie. Damn,what a wonderful movie it is!
Based on an Aleister Crowley ritual. There's a couple of good Irish folk-horror movies. 'Wake Wood' and the 'The Hole in the Ground' are genuinely creepy
Love these what we have been watching shows! Always enjoyable and adding stuff to my watchlist.
The movie Dan mentioned is from Argentina, it's okay but I remember watching it and thinking "this is pretty much chainsaw massacre".
The Lost Continent. I ordered the bluray and finally watched it. Pretty decent. We did watch Midnight Mass a year or so ago. Very good series.
Lost Continent is a lot of fun!
@@chrisalo2989 as a kid I saw the scene where the dude is thrown in the pit. Scared the crap out of me. Finally found out the name of the movie a couple weeks ago and ordered it.
Great episode. I always love to hear what you've been watching lately.

Hurts me to see Carl Dreyer's Vampyr get 2 less than an Annabelle movie! ;) Vampyr's re-release was in my blurays of 2022 list vid. Love that film - the first deconstruction of horror.
@@DavysFlicks I feel you, Davy, I really do!
Believe me, either of the other two Annabelle movies would be nowhere near this rating. Not sure if you've seen Creation, but it's got a completely different feel to me, and they did so much right here in creating an eerie and unsettling atmosphere, rather than relying on mindless jumpscares like (especially) the first one, which is trash.
My ratings are also solely based on my personal enjoyment, as I'm in no way a film critic :D
If I were to take into consideration how historically significant a movie is or how impressive it is considering the year it was made, Vampyr would get a top top rating without a doubt. But when looking solely for entertainment, Creation deserved it's rating in my opinion.
FROM is a great watch. Good call Dan.
These episodes are my favorite! Davy I saw Talk To Me yesterday and enjoyed it a lot!
I was in Italy for the summer and I bought three Argento films: Tenebre, Phenomena and Opera. I really dug Tenebre, loved Phenomena and thought Opera had a couple of standout scenes but wasn't as satisfying as the other ones. The store also had Deep Red but I watched SOT's Argento video only afterwards so I did not draw the connection. I will add Deep Red, Suspiria and Inferno to my collection but it might take me a while to get a hold of them
Recently fell into the rabbithole of the japanese anime Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, and I can't stop watching it. Loads of fun and panache and cool monsters, scummy villains, some good gore, you name it.
Basically it's like superheroes, but their hero side is a spirit named "stand" that they summon.
For each chapter the story resets with a new protagonist of a different generation, but basically they're all of the same familly and fight the charismatic vampire Dio throughout the ages.
Excellent musical themes, no filler whatsoever (there's a new villain on each episode), some extremely scumbag-y villains, colourful visuals and poses, extremely creative superpowers, and high octane action and thrillers with full blast violence. And as usual with the japanese, not much subtlety and everything is turned to 11 but it's an absolute blast. There's also a ton of rock/music references in the character and creature names. Highly recommended supernatural show.
I wouldn' reccomwnd many anime of that type (shonen), but this one is head and shoulders above the rest. I say start with chapter 3 (Stardust Crusaders)
Barbarian is a good film. .. many twists & turns. Keeps you guessing
just heard the news about william friedmen... R.I.P. to a goat
I’ve seen:
June:
Spider-Man Across the Spider Verse
The Flash
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
Secret Invasion
July:
Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning- Part 1
August:
Need to watch Oppenheimer, Haunted Mansion and Blue Beetle next
Well, there are some...
Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai on Max. Great animated series set in 1920s Shanghai, with Wing as an adolescent and the start of his friendship with Gizmo. In addition to gremlins, there are also some other human and supernatural villains that make this one interesting.
Asteroid City: Wes Anderson's latest quirky indie masterpiece. It's set in some small southwest desert town in 1955 during a junior stargazers event. The town gets quarantined after a UFO touches down and an alien appears. Essentially a metaphor for COVID, but easily one of my favorites of the year so far.
Talk to Me: a fucked up but excellent new Australian horror film, distributed here in North America by A24. Yup, another great one from them. It's about these teenagers that play this game where they hold an embalmed hand of a deceased medium, and allow themselves to be possessed for a minute and a half. Things get out of hand, however, when a few of them start having visions without even playing the game. See this one and make a show discussing it ASAP, guys!
And finally, my favorite film of the year so far, Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer. Give Cillian Murphy the fucking Oscar now!
Jamie: I absolutely love. Twilight Zone ( own all ). Night gallery ( own all). The Rockford Files - 💯 % reminds me of my grandmother ( Joyce) - it seems every time I went there , it was on / I watched probably 70-80% of those episodes. Actually, damn good. IMO 👍💯
"Dick & Doof" - the German title of Laurel & Hardy translates to "Fat & Stupid". Used to be huge in Germany.
🌠dan brown..I met him @ the wherehouse....he's friends with the Apostle.. (Peter)
Good show guys, I haven't been watching a lot of horror lately, been into other things BUT I have watched plenty of other stuff. I did watch, " Duel " again for the 100th time recently, never fails to plesae me though. lol Dennis Weaver did an excellent job, portraying a terrorized motorist, the scene where the radiator hose had blown off and his Dodge was losing power trying to climb those hills, he genuinely looked frightened, when he said, ' come on, come on! " and he's pulling on the sterering wheel, trying too make the car go faster. Awesome movie. I also watched the, Twisted Sister: " We Are Twisted Fucking Sister " documentary, I've seen it before but I love the early history of the band, talk about a band who, " paid their dues" on the bar scene, took them years to get signed, even though they were killing it, selling out clubs for years. Going to watch, " The New Kids " right now, with James Spader and Lori Loughlin from '85, a cult classic that I can watch at least once annually. It creeped me out as an 11 year old back then but I still enjoy it. Thanks for some recommendations of some lesser known ( at least to me ) films guys, I'll have to check out a few of them! Love the Bruce Lee stuff!, good choice, I own all his movies, on VHS and DVD. Cheers guys!
I watched The New Kids for the first time a few weeks ago, a great performance from James Spader who was really good at playing those types of characters.
He's never been a big Hollywood star but he's a great character actor, if you haven't already seen them check out The Music of Chance, Secretary and White Palace.
@@andrewcarr5923 Spader was a good bad guy in his movies, I'll have to check out those ones you mentioned, thanks!
Been streaming some bad stuff recently:
"The Perfection" (2018)-the longer-haired guy from "Wings" ('90s tv show, not McCartney's band) is a music academy head who gets really rapey if his female students make mistakes on their cellos. Lots of neat gross-out effects, but pretty dumb overall.
"The Invitation" (2022)-"Dracula" updated with pretty people, bad CGI and cringey dialogue.
Fangs, but no fangs.
"Demonia" (1989)-definitely one of the worst Fulci movies I've seen, about the site of some witch-burnings becoming haunted centuries later, but there's just something so watchable about these awfully dubbed, gore-tastic Italian movies I can't get enough of. A lady gets mauled to death by cats, for chrissakes.
"Trick or Treats" (1982)-a woman who looks way too old to be a babysitter is stuck with this magicians' child who keeps playing mean pranks on her on Halloween, while his wackjob father breaks out of an insane asylum and comes for revenge on the mother who had him committed. Not sure if this was bad on purpose, but it certainly stinks.
"Don't Open Till Christmas" (1984)-set in England where a knife-wielding maniac keeps slashing people dressed as Santa Claus to death...but people still keep dressing up like Santa Claus. You've gotta wait till the last scene for the flashback-reveal that makes it all make sense.
Went on a mini Shark Week binge this week and was able to watch Great White and Cruel Jaws as a double feature. All I can say is that I couldn't believe what I was seeing, especially from Cruel Jaws... don't think I've ever watched a rip-off of a rip-off before.
As for some other films, here's what else I've watched:
-Perfect Blue (re-watched it again, great film)
-Nightmare on Elm Street 2 (saw for the first time actually and it was ok)
-Strip Nude for Your Killer (super sleazy giallo... I think there's a rule in that film where a woman had to be naked every five minutes haha)
-Crimes of the Future (Cronenberg's new film... it was terrible, a bunch of pseudo-intellectual garbage)
-The Blackening (a modern blaxploitation film that's pretty funny and quite entertaining.)
Hey, since you guys have now done a million episodes of this show, I think it's time to do an outside the Monster's Den where you reveal your top ten non-horror, sci-fi, fantasy, exploitation movies.
Interesting idea!
That's a great idea for an episode!
Davy, how are you feeling?
I rewatched I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE trilogy /without the original movie/ and although part 3 SUCKS,I must admit that I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE 2 is truly a disturbing,wonderful movie.Especially the unrated version. Damn,it is strong!
Definition of middle age...when you dont notice nudity in a film.
You’re right! But in my defense, Demons of Ludlow was REALLY boring !
@@craigkaminski Such fillms are essential and an under appreciated artform as they provide that vital benchmark against which others may be judged.
Fraking is the least effective method of releasing monsters...official.
Davy mentioned what Laurel and Hardy were called in Germany, „Dick & Doof“. For all non-German speakers, these are two attributes meaning „Fat & Stupid“. I guess you wouldn’t be able to do that anymore these days.
I wondered why my German nanny used to call me "dick und doof" :(
If only Christopher Lee had a donkey as a co-star.
Some of the clowns Hammer used as the boring heroes...pretty donkey like!
@@DavysFlicksBit harsh. I thought they were role models for upstandingness and an enduring ability to wear tweed appropriately. Fine chaps one and all.
Heavy Metal Parking lot was good!
“My name is Graham, like gram of dope.”
Wow, some interesting choices today.
I watched a few new and older films myself. First, I'll start with the biggest disappoint of this year, Project Wolf Hunting. One of the worst films I ever seen, it felt like a kid wrote the script after playing video games and watching a bunch of action and horror films and threw everything together. It had a interesting cast of characters that get killed off within minutes of the movie and I really didn't like Alpha the human hybird creature it sucked, the plot twists were so bad their were like cartoonish at times. On a funny note, their were scenes where the characters were reading either Korean or Japanese notes and their written in English.
Back on Sunday, me and my father watched, Cocaine Bear and it was hilarious! We we're killing ourselves laughing at it and enjoyed the moments of gore within the film! We also went to see Oppenheimer and both enjoyed that. And I just got two films in today then I plan on watching along with another one I ordered a few years back and haven't gotten around watching it, Rampage. The two films I just got were The Deadly Tower with Kurt Russel and Man Bites Dog a Belgium crime/serial killer film that predates Natural Born Killers.
One film I watched also with my father a few weeks ago I really enjoyed it, In The Mouth Of Madness! It's become one of my top favorite films by John Carpenter as being a writer & reader myself I really enjoyed it. Found it better than The Ninth Gate.
Hope to enjoy these along with a bunch of other films I have to get around and watch some time.
Saw the new Haunted Mansion, just awful. I have not seen a good new movie since 2019 sadly.
😃👍
I have just watched the newest INSIDIOUS chapter. Not a great film,out of all five movies ,this one is the weakest one. Still,it is not a bad film.
