Who knew that a chance meeting at a cryptid/paranormal con and a library event a year later would lead to one of the most fascinating guests to ever appear on Monster Men? Strap yourselves in and prepare for spooky season as Eric talks about his many investigations. From ghosts, to UFOs, Dogmen, a museum dedicated to vampires, and Bigfoot, this a paranormal feast!
And if this episode has you hungry for more, please check out Eric Mintel Investigates on YouTube. There’s enough there to keep the hair on the back of your neck standing straighter than six o’clock from now until Halloween!
The Monster Men are delighted to welcome back half of the incredible filmmaking Adams Family team, John Adams and Toby Poser. Their latest film on Shudder, Hell Hole, is a must-see for spooky season.
With Hell Hole, the team has entered brand new territory, upping their game, so to speak. Check it out to find out how an appearance with legendary Joe Bob Briggs led to them jetting off to Serbia to shoot a flick that has The Thing vibes and some laugh out loud moments and crazy gore. Plus, you’ll find out what’s on the menu when dining in Serbia.
The Monster Men are thrilled to welcome back one of the true good guys of horror, Tim Waggoner. to say he is prolific is a gross understatement. Aside from penning Bram Stoker Award winning original tales and his incredible Writing in the Dark, he’s also the master of the movie novelization.
His latest project is the upcoming novelization of the best horror trilogy of the 21st century, Ti West’s X, Pearl, and Maxxine.
The Monster Men, creatures of the 20th century (or maybe older!), have emerged from our crypts in an abandoned cemetery somewhere close to a bigfoot hunting ground so we can yak about our favorite movies of the 21st century. We each came up of a list of our top 13 flicks of the oughts and beyond, along with some honorable mentions.
Are these definitive lists? Was Hunter even properly prepared for the discussion? Hell no! It’s even mentioned on the show that these lists will be slightly different depending on the day we’re asked.
The big question is, what do you think of our picks? What did we miss out on? What movies did we select that you would have tossed?
If anything, maybe this will get you to revisit old favorites or discover something new. Either way, grab a drink, hit PLAY and settle back with the grizzled vets of the horror minefield.
Welcome back to another episode of Monster Men. Every time the docs are about to pronounce us dead, we drag another breath into our old ass lungs and get right back up. This time around, we discuss the value of physical media and why it should be here to stay. Sure, streaming movies is easy and convenient, but can you really find everything you want at your fingertips? What happens when a streaming service loses the rights to your favorite flick? Do you really want to pay over and over again for a movie you love? Jack and Hunter pluck five movies from their massive shelves and discuss why there is still a ton of value in buying physical copies of horror movies.
What are some of your favorite movie purchases and why? The Monster Men want to know!
And now that we have a new and improved streaming platform, what topics would you like us to tackle in the coming months? If we do an episode based on your suggestion, you’ll get some free books from Hunter. So screw on that thinking cap and send us your wish lists!
You know, it ain’t Horrortober until the Monster Men roll the dice with Steve Hutchison’s fantastic game, 31 Days of Halloween. Yes, Jack and Hunter have been MIA for all of 2023, but we have risen from the grave to revel in all things horror.
Volume 2 of 31 Days of Halloween is packed with pages and pages of horror movies to choose from. All you need is some dice and a large horror movie collection, access to streaming, or both. You might say, “I’m a hard core horror hound. I don’t need no stinkin’ book to suggest movies. I know everything!” To which we say, “You’re not as all-knowing as you think, smart ass!”
Look, if you combine Jack and Hunter’s horror movie viewing time, you’re hitting over 100 years of experience. And with all that, we’re still getting movie recommendations we never heard of or just plain forgot.
As always, we rolled the dice for an entire month of terror pleasure viewing. Check out the video and see what we came up with this time around.
As a bonus, if you choose to stick to the list we rolled, tag us on Twitter or X at @MonsterMen13 and you just may win a little something at the end of the month.
And please grab your own copy of the book. You can use it year after year. It also has some great curation lists from horror celebs, directors, writers and a couple of goofball podcasters.
It’s Halloween time again, but times have changed and so must we. Thanks to the pandemic, Halloween will look a little different this year, and so does our Halloween episode. We have done it remotely, as is the case with most things in 2020… but that does not stop us from having fun. This time we discuss and celebrate the horror movies 1978, the year the John Carpenter’s Halloween came out. It was quite a year for the genre. Plus, throughout the conversation we talk about some of the ways you can enjoy Halloween while still staying safe.
So, pull up some candy corn and join us as we celebrate our favorite holiday. And don’t forget to get yourself a Monster Men shirt, hoodie or mug at our TeePublic store. Go to http://tee.pub/lic/S9-0-iRSDP8 and don’t forget to post a pic and tag us once you have your swag.
