4d ago15:06

15:06

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we prowl the drafty halls of The Bat (1959), a murder mystery that promises a terrifying faceless killer but mostly delivers a parade of suspects tripping over blueprints. Agnes Moorehead stars as Cornelia Van Gorder, a sharp-witted mystery novelist renting a sprawling mansion called The Oa…

When the Real Horror Is Medical Malpractice 11:53

11:53

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we peel back the fur suit on The Ape (1940), a Poverty Row shocker where Boris Karloff proves that even brilliant actors aren’t immune to scripts about monkey costumes and spinal fluid theft. Karloff plays Dr. Bernard Adrian, a kindly small-town physician with a big dream: curing a young wo…

Bananas, Bullets, and Bela Lugosi 17:21

17:21

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we dive into The Gorilla (1939), a film that can’t decide if it wants to be a horror mystery or a comedy routine — so it stumbles into being neither. Starring the Ritz Brothers, who spend most of the runtime mugging for the camera, and poor Bela Lugosi, who looks like he’d rather be anywher…

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we wander into the creaky corridors of The Monster Walks (1932), a Poverty Row relic that proves sometimes the scariest thing about a horror movie is its production budget. Promising a terrifying beast on the loose, the film delivers…a chimpanzee in a cage, a thunderstorm soundtrack on repe…

The Paris Blood Drive Nobody Asked For 14:28

1M ago14:28

14:28

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we stumble through the foggy backstreets of Paris with Bela Lugosi’s eyebrows leading the way in Murder in the Rue Morgue (1932). Supposedly adapted from Edgar Allan Poe’s pioneering detective tale, the movie tosses out logic and deduction in favor of mad science, ape costumes, and enough b…

Buckets of Lies: The Colonel Would Never Approve 15:06

15:06

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we sink our teeth — or at least pretend to — into I Eat Your Skin (1964, finally released in 1970), the zombie misfire with a title so good it should’ve been arrested for false advertising. Promising cannibalistic horror and flesh-ripping mayhem, the film instead delivers papier-mâché zombi…

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we pack our thermal underwear, our Geiger counters, and our healthy skepticism as we head north—way north—to a remote Arctic outpost where the coffee’s strong, the tempers are short, and the science is suspiciously well-funded. We’re talking about The Thing From Another World (1951), a Cold…

27:17

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we’re digging deep—literally—into the 1957 cult classic From Hell It Came, a film that dares to ask: “What if your dead enemy came back to life as an angry tree stump?” Set on a fictional South Pacific island where science, superstition, and slow-moving bark monsters collide, this movie fea…

This Sucks: The Motion Picture 13:05

13:05

Send us a text This week on The Introverted Obelisk, we wade chest-deep into the murky waters of the 1959 swamp shocker Attack of the Giant Leeches—a film where the real danger isn’t the monsters so much as the humidity, infidelity, and questionable law enforcement. When townsfolk in the Florida Everglades start disappearing, the local authorities …

There’s a Spider in the Auditorium Again 15:00

Send us a text This week on The Introverted Obelisk, we untangle the web of 1958’s Earth vs. The Spider—a film that asks the bold question: what if the real danger wasn’t the giant arachnid terrorizing small-town America, but the jazz band rehearsing inside the high school auditorium? Join us as we scuttle into a story featuring teenage sleuths, a …

Send us a text This week on The Introverted Obelisk, we dive headfirst into the salty depths of atomic-age anxiety with It Came From Beneath the Sea—a cautionary tale about the dangers of nuclear testing, hubris, and underestimating how mad a giant radioactive octopus can get when you only give it six tentacles. Join us as we follow a square-jawed …

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we beam ourselves back to 1953 and dive into the uncanny, paranoid dreamscape that is Invaders from Mars. Told entirely through the eyes of a young boy named David, this early sci-fi thriller offers a Cold War allegory with a sandpit twist—and we’re here for every bizarre moment. We break d…

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we dip our toes—and eventually our entire sanity—into the tepid cinematic waters of Monster from the Ocean Floor (1954), a film that dares to ask: what if a rubbery sea creature and a questionable romance plot tried to co-exist on a shoestring budget? Spoiler alert: they mostly get in each …

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we plunge headfirst into the baffling, burbling waters of Creature from the Haunted Sea—Roger Corman’s 1961 fever dream that somehow mashed together Cold War espionage, mobster slapstick, and a sea monster made of mop heads. We walk through the film’s paper-thin plot, where an American conm…

Send us a text In this crustacean calamity of atomic proportions, The Introverted Obelisk scuttles into the radioactive tidal pool of 1957’s Attack of the Crab Monsters—a movie where the science is shaky, the dialogue is moist, and the crabs are psychic.

Send us a text In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we slip on our ghost viewer glasses and stumble through the cobweb-covered corridors of William Castle’s 1960 spookfest 13 Ghosts—not to be confused with the blood-slicked, glass-walled 2001 remake that somehow starred both Tony Shalhoub and a jug of ectoplasmic rage. We follow the ill-fate…
