Camp Kaiju: Monster Movie Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

It's a crossover episode all about Marvel’s infamous monster misfire. Vampires may be immortal, but does this one deserve it?

Welcome to “Magic & Monsters”, a new series from Camp Kaiju and Gays Do the D: Disney Podcast exploring the monstrous films of the House of Mouse. It's morbin' time, ya'll. (And stick around at the end for a sneak peek into our next episode!)

The werewolf film that started it all: full moons, silver weapons, wolfsbane. Yeah, this wolf is the man. And his hair is perfect too. Helping us out is Universal monster aficionado Brian Rodriguez of Instagram's @UniMonsters; we discuss Chaney wrestling a bear, Curt Siodmak's psychoanalysis, and if this is the most tragic of the Universal Monsters. Plus, we continue our Trivia That Challenged the World and hear from Peter Lorre as he reviews F.W. Murnau's Faust.

This is what we've been debating on our road trip... anyways, we're making a pit-stop to stretch our legs. Where do you think DUEL ranks in the Spielberg canon? What do you know about his work in television? Ever see TRILOGY OF TERROR? Plus, hear Vincent recount an unnerving experience on the road. 

Road trip! Road trip! First stop is Steven Spielberg's first hit about a monstrous truck terrorizing the road. More beast than man? More car than kaiju? We're breaking it down and more.
