The vortex drops Jeff and Richard in Times Square once again, but nine years after their last visit. Things have changed and one of the original movie palaces is scheduled for demolition.

Previously on the Classic Horrors Club Podcast... In the remote reaches of an undisclosed location, Jeff and Richard discovered a hidden door in their clubhouse.

EP 100: Kong!

Oct 27 2024 214 mins

It's finally here! Eight years in the making! You're invited to join Rich and Jeff for the 100th meeting of the Classic Horrors Club! There's only one movie star and one movie big enough for the podcast: King Kong (1933.) It's an episode as big as Kong, and a celebration you don't want to miss with participation from some of our listeners and members of our Facebook group page. Gr

EP 99: Them Body Snatchers!

Sep 02 2024 122 mins

Putting the "C" in the Classic Horrors Club Podcast, Jeff and Richard finish this year's annual summer at the drive-in with two bonafide classics: Them! (1954) and Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956.) With a double-time hop, they visit the Tri-City Drive-In in Loma Linda, California, on two different days. Alas, there never was a drive-in double feature for these two films (as f

EP 98: Giant Killer Shrews

Jul 15 2024 107 mins

The much-maligned Atomic Age films, The Giant Gila Monster and The Killer Shrews, both from 1959, may have been made on the cheap, but they accomplish something few Hollywood blockbusters do: inspire our imaginations! Join Jeff and Richard as they travel back in time to the Tri-City Drive-In in San Pedro, California, for the ultimate double-feature that perfectly belongs in the dr

EP 97: Freaky Poltergeist

Jun 17 2024 111 mins

Join Jeff and Richard as they travel only a few months into the past to watch two movies released 50 years apart, one of them that's 92-years old! First up is Poltergeist (1982) and then it's Freaks (1932.) If you think that's an odd double feature, consider that the third movie on the triple bill was The Exorcist (1973.) They sure know how to program an evening's entertainment on

EP 96: Go Ape At The Drive-In

May 27 2024 140 mins

Surprise! We're hitting the road early with the first of four summer trips to the drive-in. It's the weekend of June 15, 1973, and Battle for the Planet of the Apes has just opened, giving the Hillcrest Drive-In in Cedar Falls, Iowa, the opportunity to host an unofficial "Go Ape" marathon. We both started our relationship with Planet of the Apes as children, and it's a passion tha

EP 95: Musical Monsters

Apr 15 2024 98 mins

For a bit of a change of pace, Jeff and Richard discuss two films where there are as many songs as there are monsters: Phantom of the Paradise (1974) and The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975.) Both did their time on the Midnight Movie circuit before the advent of home video boosted one's reputation and tarnished the other's.

EP 94: Mr. Murder

Mar 25 2024 122 mins

Jeff and Richard belatedly celebrate the birthday of Ol' Blood and Thunder, or Mr. Murder, Tod Slaughter. Slaughter has been called a British Boris Karloff. Indeed he made a series of films in the 1930s as similar to each other as Karloff's mad scientist movies were in the United States. However, with his roots in the theater, Slaughter was a unique master of Victorian melodrama,
