Thanks so much for answering my question! (Regarding the possibility of a Tigon films piece) My (irrational and almost certainly nostalgia-driven) fondness for some Tigon films (mostly "Witchfinder General" and "The Blood on Satan's Claw") has certainly warped my opinion. I do agree that a deep dive into the incredible film career of Vincent Price and his overall impact, specifically on genre cinema, is long overdue. Bottom line: thanks so much for providing an informative, approachable, and really entertaining dive into the movies that (some of us) love. Regarding a question for your next Q & A: Is there a film which you loved\hated on the first viewing, which you now feel very differently, and if so, why?

Thanks for the reply regarding "Godzilla Vs. Kong". I hope you get a chance to see it sometime, even if it is only on television. Personally, I've seen the film twice and absolutely loved it. Best film in the MonsterVerse series. Q&A question for next time: Are you guys aware of RiffTrax (formerly Mystery Science Theater 3000)? The reason I ask is sometimes I notice that both Dark Corners and RiffTrax highlight the same films within months of each other. Sometimes RiffTrax covers it first, other times Dark Corners does.

I found Dark Corners when I was looking for Christopher Lee material. I try to spread the word by posting links on the Iconic Cinema FB page, whenever someone posts about a film that you have done one of your super reviews on.

I'm still waiting for the review of Howling II. Any chance that will be out for Christopher Lee's birthday (May 27) or the anniversary of his crossing over to Aslan's Country (June 7)?

Thinks for answering great Doctor suggestions. It’s never too late to learn an instrument the secret is to have fun with it. New question. Which films that suffer only due to budget do you enjoy?

I think the world of bad movies, we are going to cover the same films eventually. Sometimes a film like The Astrologer is unearthed and there might be a race to review it as it something new and fresh. We keep an eye open on what other people are reviewing and some of the well known bad films we have not done because they already so over done - Troll2 and The Room for example.

Are there any obscure subgenres of film, literature, or art which you enjoy? No need to answer if doing so would ruin it because the obscurity is part of the enjoyment. I get it. What is something you’re very familiar with which you notice instantly when films get it wrong in some way? (Technology, history, geography, etc) Is there any Youtuber you enjoy for unintended reasons? Example: Ian Gordon with Horrorbabble has a great voice.... that puts me right to sleep. Have you noticed any actors who’ve managed to capture the nuances of an accent that isn’t their own? Examples: Gary Oldman and Christian Bale do good American accents.

Yay for more Robin's Dad! Yeah, I know exactly what you mean by B movies using "one true thing", the most famous probably being The Amazing Colossal Man's "the heart is just one giant cell" nonsense. New question: what film or films has been the most pleasant surprise for you, in terms of quality, originality, or performance?
