Eric and Alex review Monarchs second half of the first season determine if this one was pleasin'. Are the modern characters squandered? Is the past the only place the show should have wandered? Find out on this episode of MvM!
It's been a while, so lets catch up with an old episode recorded at the beginning of 2024. We go over our favorite films of 2023, and some old impressions on a movie that has come and left theaters already (GXK). Enjoy a few back log episodes. We wi... more
Ho ho ho! Eric and Alex get together for the annual Christmas movie, this time it's Batman Returns. Do the effects show their age? Does the film fill us with rage? Is Danny Devito's acting cheesier than a Cheeto? Is Batman a character or a caricature... more
Eric and Alex talk Pink Godzilla, Minus-One, Barbie, and the Boy and the Heron
Eric and Alex dive into Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Are we surprised by what occurs? Are these the best characters in the Monsterverse? Or is the show so bad it's perverse?
Eric and Alex dive into Godzilla Minus One. Was it everything it was hyped up to be? Or does it deserve negativity? Is it the best of all-time? Or does it need to get in line? Find out on this episode of Monsters Vs Men!
Alex and Fae dive into the popular videogame adaptation, Five Nights at Freddy's. Were the scares predictable or did they catch us when we weren't ready? Are the characters fitting, were our teeth gritting? Find out on this episode of MvM!
Fae joins Alex to discuss Lake Placid. Do we think the story is flaccid? Does the comedy burn like acid? Or is this film a spectacle, and does it deserve a spot away from the trash receptacle.
I'm most of the way through their Showa era Godzilla retrospective and really do enjoy their banter despite them having issues with saying something like "larvae."
However, the biggest flaw, so far, is this Theometer where Eric asks his son, Theo, about what's happening within a particular segment of the Godzilla movie in question. This segment is dull and uninteresting. It adds nothing and slows the flow of the podcast. Hopefully this is dropped after a while.
*EDIT*
Okay, I listened up to ... more
I found this show while searching for horror podcasts. It seemed fun. First episode I listened to was Renfield. I was hooked from there. I love all the details that these guys put into this show when rating a movie. Outstanding show! Highly Recommended for any horror fan!

Love the interactions between the hosts. Fun laid back show. Interesting topics/movies. Enjoyable listen.
Y’all have made such an amazing and entertaining podcast together. I find myself listening at least once a day and learning a little more about my favorite films. Your guest stars, jokes, and overall friendly atmosphere lead to a truly unique podcasting experience. Thanks again y’all, you’re both awesome.

These guys rock!
Recently started getting more into movie podcasts, and this one is a lot of fun! I appreciate how breezy the episodes are and how listenable the conversation always is. It’s annoying I can’t chime in because their opinions are usually dead wrong. Lol, happy to have found this gem.
I have been listening to MvM for awhile now and from the beginning it quickly became one of my favourite kaiju/monster related podcasts. Eric and Alex are a pleasure to listen to, and it has been a blast to listen to their monster film/television journey. If you are looking for a giant monster podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously but also has a lot of interesting and insightful things to say, give them a listen. To date, Zilla 98’, Kong Skull Island, and Psycho Goreman have been my fav... more
Alex and Eric's journey from Godzilla '54 to the latest episodes of Kong & Pacific Rim is worth listening to for their development alone. Pushing through the entire Godzilla, Gamera and Kong franchises in briskly paced, tight episodes has highlighted some great insights, as most Godzilla/kaiju-related podcasts usually have. But these two have clearly grown from this entire experience over the last year and a half. It's fun to listen to how their approach to these films have shifted, evolved and ... more
I've been a consistant listener of your show for some months now. It's because of you guys, my husand and I decided to check out the Gamera franchise. My favorite episodes are the ones featureing your wives! Those are really funny. I love how family friendly this show is, and it's one of the few that I have no fear of listening to while in the car with my kids! Keep up the great work!

Despite the niche interest, there are a lot of kaiju/Godzilla podcasts out there, and...well, not all of them are easy to get through. Whether it's treading the same ground as another podcast or the hosts not knowing how to hold a conversation well... Sometimes a podcast can be tough to listen to, and that's just how it goes!
Thankfully, Monsters vs. Men is not that way. Both Alex and Eric are wonderful hosts, and their already-established friendship makes this podcast quite unique in the way t... more
Good Podcast very Kongers. However I think Alex should step down and have Gwen take over as Co-Host
I was very sad when The Kaiju Apostle Podcast ended, but I found MvM and it has been great. I rarely agree with your ratings, but it’s nice to hear a different opinion.
A delightful podcast that is a great way for those unfamiliar with the genre to explore the world of monsters in a refreshing way. While they started off with Godzilla and went into their far superior Gamera series (cause Zigra is in it), they are now branching out and exploring the wonderful menagerie of creature features that brings a uniqueness that this “Bargain Basement” podcast to go into a different path than a certain “Black Sheep” podcast that roams the internet looking to lure folks in... more
