    Nate, we of Team Bartilucci thank you for agreeing to let us do a MOTHRA/THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD double-feature over at TALES OF THE EASILY DISTRACTED for the Monster-thon! Mr. Gable, we're sorry to disappoint you, but on the bright side, there are still plenty of memorable monster movies to choose from -- more monster movies than there are stars in the heavens, to paraphrase the old MGM line! :-)

    Nathaneal:
    Can't find your email, but this is Hal of THE HORN SECTION blogspot and I'd love to participate. Any films from the Forrest Tucker Monster trilogy (ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN, CRAWLING EYE, COSMIC MONSTERS); my first choice would be CRAWLING EYE if no one has taken it.

  18. Vulnavia MorbiusJune 25, 2011 at 9:59 AM

    I'm totally interested in this. Give me, I dunno, It Came from Outer Space, maybe? Or It! The Terror from Beyond Space? Or Quatermass 2? Those would be my first choices.

    Hola.

    Thanks for your comment at Apocalypse Later, Nate. I'd be happy to chip one in for you. Feel free to post The Cyclops if you want or if you want one not already on my site, how about The Black Scorpion, also from 1957? It's written and ready to go. Just let me know what and how and where.

    Supposed to be... on break... in July... Must... resist...

    Alright, I give up. You got me. It just sounds TOO fun. Please sign me up for 20 Million Miles to Earth (1957).

  27. Timothy S. BrannanJune 30, 2011 at 2:32 PM

    This looks like a lot of fun!

    I need to go home and see what I have readily available for me to watch. I have the Hammer Dracula film, but already reviewed that for something else. I think I have Attack of the Giant Leeches somewhere I am sure.

    I'll find something good.

    Can we watch more than one movie?

    Since Team Bartilucci is doing two, I see no reason why you can't do more than one as well.

    Certainly! I'm thrilled that you want to participate! Also, I'm very happy that you are choosing "Fiend Without a Face." That's one of my all-time favorite monster films. I was afraid that nobody would take it!
