Posted on by

The time on Monster Men, we welcome our pals Chad Lutzke and Jeremiah Bannister from the PaleoCheeze Podcast. Chad, like us, is a crusty horror veteran and he often watches horror movies with Jeremiah, who has hardly seen anything scary on the silver screen. It’s always a lot of fun.

We’ve invited them to watch and compare two legendary horror movies; The Fly, starring Vincent Price from 1958 and the remake with from 1986, directed by David Cronenberg and starring Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis.

You should follow these guys and subscribe to their podcast. Twitter: https://twitter.com/paleocheeze

Chad Lutzke is also one hell of a writer.
