Patrick is joined by Godzilla expert Sean to discuss two very different but still memorable sci-fi monster movies. It's Howard Hawks, it's the original clout chaser Nick Adams (not to be confused with Ernest Hemingway's short story protagonist), it's Godzilla, it's Ghidorah (spoilers), it's Rodan, and it's a vegetable monster that requires blood to survive. It's The Thing from Another World and Invasion of Astro Monster aka Godzilla vs. Monster Zero!
