THE FOLLOW-UP TO THE 2023 RONDO AWARD NOMINATED “GIANT BUG CINEMA”

From the creators Giant Bug Cinema - A Monster Kid’s Guide, which reached Number 1 on Amazon for Horror Movie Books, comes the followup, Giant Beast Cinema - A Monstrous Movie Guide — a celebration of creatures (other than bugs) that are beasts because they simply aren’t supposed to be THAT BIG!

Featuring sharp, witty, and informed reviews of 33 movies by six exceptional voices on genre cinema, take a cinematic hot rod through the screen-scape of giant apes, betrayed women, six-legged octopi, teenagers, crabs, and mollusks, to name a few of the featured giant beasts.

The contributors are:

  • Larry Blamire - film historian and cult filmmaker of Sony’s The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra
  • Justin Humphreys - Rondo Award-winning The Doctor Phibes Companion, George Pal: Man of Tomorrow
  • Tracy Mercer - Host, My Favorite Shtty Movie podcast
  • Mike Peros - José Ferrer: Success and Survival, Dan Duryea: Heel with a Heart, film critic for Noho Arts District
  • Steven Peros - Giant Bug Cinema, film historian, screenwriter of Peter Bogdanovich’s The Cat’s Meow
  • Brian R. Solomon - Godzilla FAQ

Each chapter contains the unique voice, vast memory bank, and idiosyncratic sense of humor of its distinctly mad author.  These are all movies you may have watched many times and yet each one of these writers will make you see them in a way you had not seen them before. 

As with Giant Bug Cinema, the book explores this arena up until the accepted end of the “Monster Kid Era” — 1968 (although we did sneak in one worthy retro entry from 1969 because it was too enjoyable to resist).  But rest assured, plans are afoot to bring our readers second volumes of both Giant Bug Cinema and Giant Beast Cinema, which will take readers into the gonzo 1970’s, 1980’s and beyond.  

You will step way from Giant Beast Cinema with a new level of appreciation for giant beasts you only thought you knew. 

But then again, can one ever really know a killer shrew?

Not for people over 5'6"
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length with Pockets, Size: XX-Large, Color: Slate Grey
These are definitely designed for shorter people. They get 5* because they're still low cost and decent quality on fabric. Just have to pull the waist up because the calfs are not designed to be worn as capris and pull the entire leggings down. If it sized up one more then they'd just fall down because of the waist. So waistband fits as expected. They're just also for shorter people than me.

"Heather" and Non-Heather Colors are Not the same Fit & Material
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length, Size: Large, Color: Space Dye Slate
I bought these in one of the "heathered" colors and loved how soft they were. They are really comfortable and stretchy, thick enough that they can be worn on their own. They are not a perfect fit, but fit well enough and I can overlook this because of how smooth they feel. I wanted to try other colors and only realized after purchasing that the non-heathered colors were a different material. I was able to return them but they should probably be listed as a separate item. They have an entirely different fit and texture and I would not recommend. Five stars for the heather colors, one star for the non-heather version.

Comfy!
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length with Pockets, Size: Large, Color: Black
Super comfy, not as much tummy control as I would like but perfect for house work, going to the gym or grocery shopping. Love that these have pockets!! Thin so not too hot and stretchy too.

Great leggings!
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length with Pockets, Size: Medium, Color: Black
These are great leggings! They’re my third pair. They are comfortable, lightweight, and fit great. I wouldn’t say they are buttery soft as compared to other leggings that are listed the same texture, however they are soft and smooth. The pockets are a must and are positioned perfectly.

So excited I found these!
Special Size: 27.5" Full Length, Size: Small, Color: Black, Special Size: 27.5" Full Length, Size: Small, Color: Black
Extremely impressed with these leggings! These athletic leggings are absolutely amazing! The material is incredibly soft and feels so comfortable against the skin. The quality is top-notch, with a durable yet flexible fabric that moves perfectly with your body. They are completely squat-proof, which makes them perfect for workouts, and they stay in place without sliding down, no matter how much you move. Some of my more expensive name brand leggings don’t check all the boxes; as these do! These leggings truly combine comfort, quality, and performance—highly recommended! Also- I am 5’3/5’4 and these hit right at my ankle
