Drive-In Monster Movies Invade TCM Every Thursday in June

This is a government warning.  An explosion has caused radiation to pour over a cable channel called Turner Classic Movies and as a result large-scale monsters will be invading every Thursday!  For fans of the drive-in classic “B movies” of the 50’s, TCM is bringing back all the cheesy fun throughout the month of June.  Continuing tonight, TCM will host such films as Them!, The Black Scorpion, The Giant Claw, and many more.  These campy classics reflected the nuclear fear that ran rampant at this time.  Later this month, you will be able to catch Attack of the 50 foot Woman, The Cyclops, It Came From Beneath The Sea, The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, and The Blob.  Click here for more info on the line-up.  So, if you like your monsters large, your films with small budgets, and your acting over-the-top, make sure to keep an eye out for TCM every Thursday in June.  Beat the heat and stay inside for these great drive-in classics.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
