    Christine (1983) w/ Alessia Dawn & the Jersey Ghouls

    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. Follow the Jersey Ghouls on Instagram & listen to their show here. You can (now) follow Alessia on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram and Letterboxd.

    Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning (2004) w/ Red Herring

    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.

    Ginger Snaps (2000) w/ Red Herring

    Werewolf Winter 2 is upon us, and the Monstie Men head up to Canada for the coming-of-age cult classic, Ginger Snaps!

    From the Crypt - House of Dracula (1945)

    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 Fly II (1989)

    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.
