  • Congrats on 300 Episodes!

    I am not a monster kid. But I do love movies, and these monster kids of “Monster Party” have opened up a whole new genre of films for me to enjoy and even cherish. If you’re a monster kid, obviously, this podcast is custom made for you. But even if you just love movies like me, come on in and join the “Monster Party.” It’s a blast.

Horror comics with David Schow!), but the hosts themselves have a great width and depth of knowledge and experience in horror and the entertainment industry

  • Cheers to my favorite gang of monsters

    This show is the greatest & smartest source for sci-fi, horror and fantasy media. The guys have episodes on pretty much every topic you might think of with very few exceptions (i.e dr. Who & chittychittybangbang).

    My only criticism is that they aren’t actually inviting me & my friends over for a party irl.

    I just want you to know that I recommend this to all the canonically cool people I know. I particularly want Shawn to know that you all have kept me entertained and laughing out here in the ... more

    Dear Men of MONSTER PARTY,

    My name is Mark Pitta and I’ve been a guest on the show several times (episodes 47, 183, 212, 225, 242…topics include clichés, weapons, movie quotes, movie marquee, holiday bash, and so on and on.) I recently re-listened to a random episode with Greg Proops on delinquents & hooligans so my question is, has Larry finally seen Near Dark? Also, I am a Patreon member now, but could not find the John Carpenter video you spoke of in that episode. Thank you and remember “it’... more

WRITING HORROR WITH RICHARD CHRISTIAN MATHESON!!!
Q: What is it about the horror genre that appeals to you?
I'm drawn to psychological horror, as it explores obsessive behavior and departures from the norm, reflecting the influences of both my parents.
WRITING HORROR WITH RICHARD CHRISTIAN MATHESON!!!
Q: What personally inspired you to start writing?
The influence of my father was profound, but also my mother's insight into people's behaviors and conflicts helped shape my understanding of drama and storytelling.
BOB GURR: TO DISNEYLAND AND BEYOND!!! With FRANK WOODWARD & BOB GURR!
Q: What do you think of the way Walt worked with people?
Walt had a sense of what people could do, even if they'd never done it before; he would order them to do it, and they would.
BOB GURR: TO DISNEYLAND AND BEYOND!!! With FRANK WOODWARD & BOB GURR!
Q: How did you come about making this documentary?
It was happenstance; one producer suggested doing something about Bob, and we went from there.
THE TWISTED JOURNEY OF INCUBUS!!! With DAVID J. SCHOW!
Q: David, I'd like to start really by asking you in a nutshell two things. Who is Leslie Stevens and what is Incubus?
Leslie Stevens was the man behind the film and the creator of The Outer Limits, and Incubus is a unique horror film shot partly in Esperanto, revolving around love, demons, and the supernatural.
