Turkey Thursday: THE PHANTOM CREEPS
Added 2022-06-01 19:03:42 +0000 UTCHowdy, Traxians! With Memorial Day behind us, blockbuster season has officially begun! Keeping that in mind, let's go in the complete opposite direction for another Turkey Thursday, shall we?
This week's entry is THE PHANTOM CREEPS.
Bela Lugosi plays Dr. Zorka, a mad scientist who has taken on a few too many projects at once. Robots, invisibility belts, picking up hitchhikers and then immediately driving them off cliffs... he’s a busy guy! Fortunately, he has help from his beefy henchman Monk. Fans of the Batman serial we riffed will remember Gabe, another great henchman. If you liked Gabe, you’re gonna love Monk. The fact Monk and Gabe never got their own spinoff is a real shame, as all serious film scholars would definitely agree.
Join me tomorrow, June 2nd, at 3:30pm Pacific / 6:30pm Eastern at this secret Traxian Scener theater page. Click the "Join" button at that time (the Scener Chrome extension is required). Also please note that Scener requires Google Chrome running on a desktop or laptop - mobile support doesn't work for Vimeo yet.
See you there!

Sorry I couldn't join you. The 2nd and 16th were game nights with Rhonda's 5th edition D&D game. Tabletop role-playing was the only thing that got me out of 30 years' clinical depression. I have to keep making time for it, as often as I can. Rhonda has had to cancel until late July, so hopefully I'll be able to join you, next time.
