The good folks at Film Masters have taken it upon themselves to rescue oodles of public domain titles, some of which they've even gone through the time and effort to give the stand-up, high-def presentations these orphaned films deserve. Or do they?

That’s the question we’ll be asking tonight as we look at Film Masters’ first two Blu-ray releases, Monte Hellman’s feature debut, The Beast from Haunted Cave (1959), and Roger Corman’s Ski Troop Attack (1960), as well as The Giant Gila Monster and The Killer Shrews, both from 1959 and both directed by special effects wizard Ray Kellogg.

AC is joined in the studio by another intrepid band of classic horror fans (Nile Arena, Alan Tromp, Jon Kitley) to discuss this tryptic of terror from 1959, where gangsters talk like beat poets amidst the snow-capped Black Hills of South Dakota, and giant beaded lizards and costumed canines cavort in and around the Lake Dallas area. Good times abound!
