    Mar 3 2024

    Frank and Dan Return to 2024 with a movie we have been wanting to cover for a long time 1990s Tremors. This now classic monster movie was originally a flop in the box office but found a new life in the video store slowly becoming a cultural phenomenon and spawning 6 sequels and a tv show. We also review an awesome new kaiju slice of life comic called Kaiju Dayz. As always we are continuing our Ultraman Blazar Coverage with Episodes 14 & 15. We also talk about WBD's Creatureverse, the Godzilla Comicbook Renaissance and Kaiju Brooklyn 2.
