Ho-wdy, Ho-mies!! I'm still on the road for another week or so, but I shan't let that interfere with my posting duties! The ep I'd been time coding had an issue (half of it was missing!!), so I had to start from scratch to make sure you got your weekly Monstervision fix. Because of that, I don't have time codes for these yet, but I'll be sure to update this post with those for you sometime tomorrow. This one was on an unlabeled "Super VHS" tape, so I have no air date for you yet, either. I'm going to do a bit of research and I'm sure I will be able to update that aspect of things for you, too...though I suspect someone here is just going to know it bc y'all are ON. THIS!! I feel like there are some true JB historians amongst us and I sincerely bow to your knowledge!!! :) (UPDATE: WE got it! Thanks, Johnny!! :) xoxo)

The interview with Tom Laughlin is unique bc it's a phone interview, so it kinda reminds me of how we have to do interviews this season due to Covid protocols. Speaking of which, THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH to everyone who tuned in for the Season Premiere last night. Eli was such a fun guest, and I loved his interview, despite the weird Zoom-y way we had to do it. We have some more AMAZING guests coming up this season that I can't wait to tell you about! We're trying to have as much fun as we possibly can, despite the restrictions (temporarily) placed upon us.

Have fun tearing the heart outta Saturday night, Mutants! xoxo

PS- #TeamGremlins2...Anybody else with me? :)

Too bad that new Billy Jack they were talking about never came to be. They actually started filming The Return of Billy Jack in 1986 and apparently shot about an hour's worth of the movie before Laughlin got injured during filming and by the time he recovered, they had lost financing. He was still trying to get it made by 1996 here, but it wasn't to be. I'd still like to get some kind of release for the unfinished film to see what they had.

I was looking up One Tin Soldier yesterday for the first time 23 years after first reading about it in an issue of Scud the Disposable Assassain and forgetting about it... weird!

That floppy coif on JB. I would like the full backstory on that.

Gremlins, Gremlins 2....Gremlins Recall (fan film)...I love it all! So I'm good with #TeamGremlins2 LOL. Also, gotta say CONGRATS to the 2021 Fangoria Chainsaw award!!! So well deserved for you all!!! PS. Saw on Shudder we now have access to almost all of the previous marathons, specials and season episodes segments. We can never have enough Joe Bob!!! #TheDriveInWillNeverDie

Tbh: Gremlins 2 > Gremlins

Gotta love that musical number in G2😜

Gremlins 2 was one of my favorite movies growing up. granted I was about 7 when I first watched it. Loved the randomness of it.

I like Gremlins 2 too, every time there's a crisis I feel the need to take that one Gremlin's advice and put all my money into canned goods and shotguns. Though the version on video here when the film breaks down had a shootout with John Wayne but every other version I've seen since it's been Hulk Hogan. Think I preferred the John Wayne one.
