We return to American monster movies this week with a sci-fi classic, 1955’s Tarantula! This film was a reaction certainly to the success of “Them” and other creature features that made big bank at the box office. At time it feels like it is trying to do something interesting and other times it feels like the cash grab that it is.
Join us as we look at the production of this film, take a dive into the cast, and talk about how it came to be. This is Kaiju Vs. History’s “Tarantula!” episode!
