One of our favorite popcorn movies. We both love those incredibly cheesy 1950s B&W monster movies.

None better than The Amazing Colossal Man

The special effects were are really cheesy. Some scenes, as I recall, he wasn't completely opaque.

ANOTHER one we love.

It's Boonie's love of Svengoolie sparked all of this, really.

Although we like the Hammer movies with Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, I have a particular soft spot for the Poverty Row black-and-white monster movies. All of the Bert I. Gordon masterpieces.

Alright, girls, here's one you'll love: Hot Frosty on Netflix.
