When you take couch conversations about movies and turn it into a podcast, you get DISSECT THAT FILM. Hosts Brett, Dan and Angela take movies they love, hate and maybe have never seen and plot break them from beginning to end, bringing their own unique views on the movies brought to the table. Full of fun, humor and facts, DISSECT THAT FILM is the place to be. Also home to our monster themed show THE MONSTER ZONE, where we spin a wheel of monster movies and break down whatever we land on, with co-host Mikey Ward.

After the success of Jaws in 1975, many production companies wanted to dip their hand in the honeypot, with that came one of the first "rip-offs" with 1976's GRIZZLY. With it being the first, is it also one of the best to rip-off the Jaws formula? Did it need more fake bear? We discuss that and more this week on THE MONSTER ZONE.

The Wheel of Monsters has spoken, and this week we look at a remake that's been forgotten to time, medieval time! We dive into the remake of the 1985 North Korean monster movie Pulgasari, 1996's GALGAMETH. From it's too good to be true origins, to the legendary people behind it, is it one of the weirdest remakes to grace the silver screen? Let grab our swords and shields and attack this long forgotten film head on, on this episode of THE MONSTER ZONE!

Over the last 3 years we have seen many monsters, seen how they begin and how they end. But, what if they all came back and battled it out to become the CHAMPION OF MONSTERS! Well, that's what the Monster Royale is all about, pitting them against each other to see who takes home the crown.
Let the ROYALE begin!

EPISODE 239: The Month of Dan concludes with a return to the world of Gundam with the first movie brought to the franchise, 1981's MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM 1.
With a show that wasn't doing well, what do you do? Well, maybe combining episodes into a 3-part movie series will do the trick. That's what Mobile Suit Gundam did in the early 80's to save a new franchise from going under? Did it work? I mean, I feel that's a pretty easy question to answer. But, does this introduction of Gundam still hold up 45 years later. Dan and his son Victor are going to teach Parker a thing or two, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.

The Month of Dan continues with Dan's first MONTH OF ACTION pick, 1995's GUNSMITH CATS.
From the pages of the hit Manga, to the small screen as a 4-part series then combined OVA, this is as close to an American action movie that you'll get from the world of anime. From the American muscle car, to the fact firearms are a major play, government corruption and foreign assassins', how does this not play into the month designated for ACTION! Is it underappreciated in the vast world of anime?
Lets find out, this week on the DISSECT THAT FILM PODCAST.
