Monster Madness X (2016)

[@aldi404]

Rewatching the Monster Madness compilation videos on and around Halloween has become a yearly tradition

[@conansredbowtie]

For years I was only ever interested in the AVGN series but this year I decided to check out Monster Madness and I sure have been missing out! This is great stuff, I've been on a binge since Halloween.

[@sephirothdomain1]

finally came around huh, yeah goes the same way for all of us .. soon - if you havent already- Youll find James' Twin ..Board James .. should check it out if you havent :D

[@Casual_Sauce]

0:11 RIP BOO the real fuckin jaguar

[@FAM0US-M0NSTERS-]

I could watch these year round. Now I can. Thanks James! Keep up the good work.

[@shortinos]

this is peak James Rolfe. As others have said countless of times, I can watch this multiple times and still be entertained. I have discovered a lot of great movies that I wouldn't usually watch thanks to James.

[@curious_mitch]

Regarding "Clash of the Titans" James questioned the two-headed dog and was confused about whether it was supposed to be Cerberus but lacked three heads. Well, there is a two-headed dog in Greek mythology, but it seems to be much less well-known than Cerberus, so I'm not surprised James didn't know what it was supposed to be depicting. The two-headed dog is named Orthrus, or Orthos.

[@justinhuston6855]

I did not know that Thanks for the info

[@951258tike22]

Michael Parks leaning on the Walrus abomination always reminded me of a deranged Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman in a weird way.

[@WatchitforDays]

Thank you for uploading these, James 🎃

[@Resterminador]

Seeing Boo in the intro its nostalgical :( Rip Boo

[@CumGoblin4000]

[@anubusx]

I always wanted that owl model.

[@t45tt4tr]

Strange

[@jameyspielt]

Your monster madness series has been one of your best achievements,, even when you are not acting as such. great stuff... thank you. been a fan of your work for more than 15 years now.

[@DMBLaan]

If you want a great retelling of Metropolis, check out the 2001 anime of the same name

[@joewatts2940]

I'm loving these releases. Been with you since GT, James. Loved your work for almost 2 friggin decades.

[@banzairunner7860]

Oh but he’s back! The man..behind..THE MASK! 💀 🔪

[@ellnats]

and he crawled, out, of, his, Hole!

[@crystalshaw8744]

My dad is an excellent artist and loved King Kong so he would draw these pics of King Kong climbing the Empire Estate building.

[@camarossdriver]

You had me at “Stitched up bleeding bag of shit.”

[@ZachKateAda]

I’m doing a Godzilla marathon watching all the movies this week.

[@crystalshaw8744]

Surprised to hear him say that about Lost Boys.

[@mikemorse17]

Not sure how long James Rolfe has been on KZbin but as far as I'm concerned he's the greatest youtuber of all time, everything he has done is so good and done with such great detail, not to mention the range of different ventures he has delved into, Mr. Rolfe thank you so much for all the many great years of entertainment and may you continue with more success as long as you desire.

[@FurryMcMemes]

He's been uploading to KZbin since about 2006 but was making videos long before that.

[@jetcitykitty]

Oh boy, Eraserhead...it is a metaphorical message about becoming a parent and how it can change your world.

[@prophismusic]

Thanks for uploading this as one video, good move. It's the time of the season.

[@JOfJaZ]

Btw, I know James has said it a lot over the years, but apparently the correct pronunciation of Legosi’s name is “la-goh-shi” just a fun thing to know

[@Gorgutsforcongress]

Love these cleaned up re-uploads ❤

[@noimjory]

Spoke too soon, Didn't care for Mike being in the 2015 ones but james talking by himself again is back to form. so much better hearing him alone since he's more of a movie guy

[@TheDarthcow]

You left off TCM2 as one of the best horror movies of the 80’s!!

[@RaccoonFacts]

Its like I am back in film class

[@wowbossie]

Where’s Board James? I need some more!

[@pass_]

to many, this is the last monster madness

[@Chainsawhappy]

I like how while James is reviewing the framing of the shot lines up with the poster behind him to look like he's wearing a tiny witch hat on the side of his head.

[@MixMasterLar]

I loved the classic Monster Madness marathons but honestly this was my favorite one to consume. Glad to see it in one giant video

[@justinhuston6855]

My favorite part of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994) was the conversation between Victor and The Creature in the ice cave

[@mrmoore2050]

That 20 second intro song was so 90's TV. Bill Nye, or Tales from the Crypt. Mostly though, so much like MST3k intro.

[@AntoinettexKitten]

The 2 headed guard dog is Orthrus

[@AntoinettexKitten]

I thought the most interesting version of Frankenstein's monster was in Penny Dreadful

[@951258tike22]

1:02:10 I couldn't find that 3 Part series of Alien Invader Movies vs their Remakes on Cinemassacre

[@RaphaelRemington6969]

I watch Monster Madness every October! Love it

[@jdzencelowcz]

The closest thing to the Will Castle experience these days, is a 4D showing of an abridged movie. We had one at Stone Mountain GA for a while.

[@kilmcm45]

Someone get James to watch Barbarian....very unconventional horror film😮

[@Jarrygames86]

Please everybody keep in mind this is James's personal opinion on these movies. I don't agree with every point he's made but he has made a lot of good points. He mainly dissects the movies into stuff that he didn't like and what he likes. The stuff they didn't do the stuff they could have done. A lot of great content. I just don't agree 100% lol more like 95% 😅 Great example of what I mean... 3:01:58 Sorry James, but I find a mindless pawn way more scary than somebody who can think for themselves and has a conscience. The pawn doesn't care.. doesn't have feelings...anything. Just emotionless. Only doing what it needs to get what it needs. You're in the way 😬 oop.

[@oscarchacon2878]

I'm just a fan on James on his own. Nothing against Mike but the sripted ones feel so familiar. And I won't bother watching the ones with the video store crew because I just don't like those guys

[@HereIsWisdom1318]

Those guys are all great! I love watching rental reviews!

[@sephirothdomain1]

Oh they grow on you man but yeah when mikes there he kinda rants and James is like " yeah .. yup .. mhm". Don't think anything beats just James giving us his perspective for sure

[@pass_]

so... you're not a big Ryan fan btw?

[@dantenage9687]

I do have a problem with Mike

[@guilty-of-being-right]

James is the g.o.a.t.

[@DeathMetalDerf]

I was Lon Chaney's lover!

[@csj9619]

"Tusk" is something I've gotta see, as a fan of weird shit. Perhaps some snacks and some Chug-El-lug while viewing. The best ever product placement in a movie was in "House of a Thousand Corpses", where someones eating a bowl of cereal, "Agatha Crispies". *DISCLAIMER: i may be wrong about what movie the Agatha Crispies cereal was in, but pretty sure im not just making it up

[@crystalshaw8744]

" Release the Kracken "...😂

[@jdzencelowcz]

I've heard in Drac. D&LI, during the staking scene, Steven Weber reacted outta character a bit when so much blood came out, but he managed to stay mostly in character & finish the scene.

[@lordpuki1375]

If you think this staking scene is over the top,, you need to check out film Transylvania Twist. It's a Naked Gun style spoof of the Horror genre from the late 80s...

[@GenMathis74]

Midsommer reminds me of wickerman down to the bear costume

[@dan_evilrobot]

I absolutely love this Cinemassacre's Monster Madness X into.😀😄❤

[@aaronp9835]

I love these compilations. Gives me peace

[@av_8596]

*"The Final Marathon."* Yeah, sure.

[@EntertainmentFan11]

The tenth year was the last FULL marathon. He's still doing it, just not every day.

[@jamesl.anderson1384]

2:32:32 Dokken: 🎶Dream Warriors🎶

[@t.andrewhanes872]

One thing I would add to discussions concerning silver age sci-fi movies is the influence Communism and The Cold War had on them (along with the Atom Bomb, of course). I think you have to be aware of this to truly appreciate Invasion of the Body Snatchers, for example… But… Great video James… really enjoy your stuff!

[@piplup2009]

That TUSK abomination gave me nightmares

[@t.m.1537]

Keep em coming James

[@A_Nerds_Paradise]

@22:20 in, that smile looks like a co worker of mine. Freaks me out just the same. No joke.

[@av_8596]

*RIP Boo*

[@peterolbrisch8970]

William Friedkin is not the author of The Exorcist, William Peter Blatty is the author.

[@NorthNova13]

There are only three types of people in the world 1) Those who think Frankenstein is the monster.😢 2) Those who understand Frankenstein is the doctor.😅 3) Those of us who understand that Dr Frankenstein is the real monster🤔

[@jasons8235]

HALEY Joel Osment, not Harry...lol

[@Twerkingspider]

Also in that segment Justin long not Jason long lol

[@moonbeam2359]

Its Boo!

[@kdusel1991]

RIP Boo!

[@crystalshaw8744]

I was thinking an actual pole.

[@Pewpewpew182]

We never got a sinister video on monster madness did we? 😅

[@zacharyarmitage7941]

The chug uh lug could be a tribute to Roger Miller song??

[@bobmortock]

Love MM and back to James only in front of the cam. Shame the reviews only have stills rather than clips, though

[@TheGlaringOne]

Mike is looking kind of rough this year, James should have done it solo.

[@crystalshaw8744]

That little boy worked my final nerves.

[@mikeworkman3593]

Imagine if they had filmed all these old movies in true technicolor, like the wizard of Oz? How cool would that have been?

[@jjpe306]

Loved this Monster Madness, especially the Top Ten Lists

[@StarLord-o9v]

I thought I was the only person who had seen “Eraserhead”, amazing movie on par with Todd Browning’s “Freaks”. I love this man’s take on these entries. Thanks.

[@gkevenson2368]

Solid Gold again!

[@AntoinettexKitten]

I always thought that Mr. Sardonicus face was from The Twilight Zone

[@MrTheEdge]

RIP to the classic Monster Madness days. Maybe next year he can find time to republish a 15 year old Halloween special 😂

[@kellerwhite528]

James is my generations joe Bob Briggs or Elvira 😂😂

[@S4ns]

Take a shot every time James says "jonre".

[@bhvrd]

I love the nerd... man.

[@jeremyfredenburg3827]

This is a yearly tradition like it is for most people who watched this video..this movie is super underrated...comparing it to a classic Greek tragedy is one hell of a stretch haha but the movie is phenomenal in my opinion but I do a particular style of Movie that I like lol

[@mikehall7189]

The strange tone makes it horror.

[@vishalkalicharan7710]

Monster Madness is old!

[@dragondaveltd1992]

1:30:44 I have this on DVD from Eureka! Entertainment in the UK and it has some missing scenes has beautifully restored back to its original print as the Reconstructed and Restored version back in 2010! And there is the 1984 release with rock music by Freddie Mercury, Bonnie Tyler, Cycle V, Jon Anderson and many more!

[@jetcitykitty]

Word to your mummies ❤

[@johnjones-fj7qw]

King Kong really is a great film. It should be seen, was made to be seen! And the Universal films are nearly all good. My favourite is The Mummy. It's a well shot, well written, well acted film- and a sad tale of unrequited love.

[@bloodmoon1759]

I agree. Rocky horror picture show is a cult classic. And here's a bit of trivia Tim curry was Dr. Frankfurter from the time it was a stage play.

[@justinhuston6855]

I saw Sleepy Hollow (1999) quite a few times when it was in theaters I always had more fun than the time I saw before

[@heyimwilly]

So when are you gonna go on Zac Amico's Midnight Spookshow?

[@43Aquaman]

Good work.

[@kilmcm45]

Cass-E-O-Pee-uh....say it with me now😅

[@TheNorfolkman]

When it comes to Hammer top ten,I would put “Quatermas and the Pit” as number one.

[@cr103]

2:44:33 I worked as a security guard on Manchester town Hall when they were filming that inside. I got to see some scenes be filmed and it was so jarring hearing nothing but dialog, nothing on the set made noise, like there were cushions made up to look like wall panels and books. Nothing was what it looked like.

[@anubusx]

I read Del Toro is making a Frankenstein film.

[@EntertainmentFan11]

He did Pinocchio, he was originally gonna make a Star Wars movie (he was working on an origin story for Jabba the Hutt (I'm dead fucking serious), but it was scrapped)... It's gonna be interesting to see what he does with Frankenstein, but it's also worrying because there's no telling whether or not it'll be a good screen adaptation like the 1931 film.

[@landonwhyte2973]

Zelda Williams (the daughter of Robin Williams) is making a Frankenstein movie and it's coming out pretty soon (I think in either February or March).

[@SuperArtie]

I WAS LON CHANEY’S LOVER

[@gullpayne]

Love this

[@michellebeckham5310]

The Spanish version of Dracula is not better in many ways, it's worse in some ways.

[@cesarsosa4617]

Capulina vs las momias

[@OurDemocraticRepublic]

Thanks for these

[@rockinHurley777]

It's Justin long

[@deathsnitemaresinfullust2269]

Uhhh😐, 41:44 What the Hell am I looking at in that picture on the screen? 😆👍

[@kdusel1991]

This is one of my favorite MMs!!!

[@dontbefooled132]

What about Skittles

[@Back2thecrypt]

Yeah, it was a good finale for the time. This was a big deal when it came out.

[@crystalshaw8744]

Alfred Hitchcock was a freak.

[@Goff667]

Justin Silverman is my friend

[@garyoak4315]

james mike a black cat this gonna be a good ass video 😎

[@chanbara8683]

hey a bug landed on the pumpkin at 52:02 ..i wonder what became of it....😄🙃 that bug could have totally metal geared James LMFAO

[@mayormccheese2641]

This was the last time he gave a fuck about Monster Madness. Good times

[@randycunningham7318]

The Wickerman is so creepy and riveting.
