The Monstie Men take a break from the Dracula 2000 Trilogy for a trip to the cinema! there's a new mummy movie out, so you know that they had to rush to the theater to cover it. Plus, they'll be covering Lee Cronin's other Hollywood film this summer, so it was a no brainer. Oh, is this an Evil Dead movie?

In a special edition of the Monster Rally, James had the opportunity to interview the great William Sadler (who we've talked about previously in our Tales from the Crypt episode) during his press tour for his new monster movie, The Yeti, so we're bringing that to you here. PLUS! The Monstie Men do a spoilerific review of the film. Get info on where to watch The Yeti here.

Gary is fresh out of horny jail and ready to dive into one of the wildest, boldest, most nothing-est takes on Dracula in Dracula 2000, a movie that Wes Craven kind of presented. Gerry Butler as sexy Dracula? We're in! You can find the Monstie Men on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠all of their links here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

EDITOR'S NOTE: In the time between the recording & posting, the Disney/OpenAI deal was scrapped, so don't "@" us. Friend of the show & Geekscape pillar Katie Hampton is back on the show with Jules, a movie starring Ben Kingsley and filmed in the gorgeous & proud state of New Jersey. It's *kind of* an alien invasion flick that Katie tricked James into thinking was a monster movie. You can follow Katie on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Due to circumstances out of our control, the audio may not be as crisp as it normally is, but at least the entire record wasn't scrapped. James & Alessia loved everything about the original Castle Freak. How does the remake from 2020, a year that was totally chill & nothing bad happened, hold up? You can follow Alessia on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠and ⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠. She's no longer afraid of the internet.

James & Alessia fully let their (castle) freak flags fly in this one, Lil Monsties. This is a series of firsts, and certainly won't be the last, of us covering Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton, Stuart Gordon, HP Lovecraft, Full Moon Features, or any combination thereof, we promise. Castle Freak is a gnarly, bizarre, and horny movie that is just a little bit perfect, not despite its flaws, but because of them. You can follow Alessia on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠and ⁠Letterboxd⁠.

Fan-favorite Alessia Dawn fills in for Gary as she & James are joined by fellow Geekscapers, the Jersey Ghouls, as they delve into the John Carpenter X Stephen King classic car collaboration! This was a blind spot in Carpenter's body of work for James, and even though they're both huge King fans, it's very funny that the Ghouls were brought on to talk about his bro-iest film adaptation.

Red Herring joins James as both Werewolf Winter and our coverage of the Ginger Snaps trilogy comes to an end with 2004's prequel, Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning. If we had a nickel for every series that deals with werewolves having a third movie that's a prequel, we'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Fan theories discussed can be found here.

Werewolf Winter 2 continues, and while we only have a single Monstie Man, Red Herring is crowned the first Monstie Mommy! James & Red talk about the continuing traumas of Brigitte Fitzgerald, months after contracting lycanthropy in a failed attempt to save her sister. This one goes places, folks!

Werewolf Winter 2 is upon us, and the Monstie Men head up to Canada for the coming-of-age cult classic, Ginger Snaps! But we couldn't do it alone, so we're joined by Bailey Downs's own chaos gremlin herself, Red Herring! You can follow Red on ⁠Instagram ⁠or her ⁠other⁠, ⁠spicier ⁠⁠sites.

As a holiday treat, we delve into the depths of the Monster Rally Crypt to present to you another lost classic episode of the Monster Rally Podcast, this time 1945's House of Dracula. This features the second & final time we talk about American Dracula, played by Poughkeepsie's favorite son, John Carradine. You can find the Monstie Men on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The Fall of the Fly finishes with The Fly II, the sequel to David Cronenberg's 1986 masterpiece The Fly, a movie that time fully forgot about. Is it good? Well, time fully forgot about it, so... That said, the last third of the movie honks. You can find the Monstie Men on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Buy some merch on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TeePublic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or the ⁠Geekscape Dashery Store⁠.

Even though Gary's not 100% in this one, he wouldn't miss talking about Geena Davis, much to James's chagrin. But come on, it's David Cronenberg's The Fly...it's a monolith. Buckle in.

In what can only be described as the shortest episode of the Monster Rally Podcast, the Monstie Men talk about, bafflingly, 1965's Curse of the Fly; a movie that could best be described as "from another time."
