Beer and B Movies: Episode 73 - The Beast with Five Fingers (1946)

New episode this Saturday! 1946's eerie psychological horror picture The Beast With Five Fingers, paired up with a flight of three beers from the generous folks at @bhbc. Robert Alda, Andrea King and Peter Lorre star in this one about a piano maestro who dies, and the return of his severed hand for revenge from the grave. Or is it? It keeps you guessing right up until the end. We have a Standard Ale, blonde Ale and Strawberry Daze, a blonde ale with strawberries. It's atmospheric horror from the golden era, so be sure to join us.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 72 - The Blood on Satan’s Claw (1971)

Episode 71 drops this Saturday! 1971's The Blood on Satan's Claw, with a trio of beers provided by our friends at @portbrewing. It's 18th century rural England, and something monstrous has been tilled up in a field. Now, the local children have become a murderous band, collecting bodies and samples of Satan's Skin for their master. To pair with this lighthearted romp, we Wipeout and High Tide, two IPAs, and Mongo double IPA from a fun excursion to San Marcos. Be sure to join us for another trip into folk horror.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 71 - Billy Jack (1971)

Billy Jack, episode 71, with The 4 Year Beer, from @foursilosbrewery. Tom Laughlin starred, directed and wrote, along with his wife Delores the story of Billy, a Vietnam vet who retreats back to his desert roots, trying to leave society behind, but drawn to protect a school for troubled youths. Billy's not much for diplomacy, preferring to let his feet do the talking. It's early 70s message movie paired with a crushable session IPA celebrating a four year anniversary from Four Silos, out of Arizona.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 70 - Beyond the Time Barrier (1960)

Episode 70 blasts off! Beyond the Time Barrier, with Vice Apricot Peach Berliner Weisse @wildbarrelbrewing kindly provided. This 1960 scifi adventure tells the story of a pilot who accidentally finds himself 64 years in the future, to 2024. Earth is a barren wasteland due to nuclear testing that destroyed the protective layer around the planet, allowing cosmic radiation to bombard the surface. Most of the population fled for Mars, and the rest moved underground. We paired it with this tart, fruity, delicious beer from Wild Barrel, out of San Marcos. A good time was had by all.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 69 - The Saracen Blade (1954)

This week we're swinging into swashbuckling territory, with 1954's The Saracen Blade, and Toasted Coconut Porter that @jubeck_brewing generously provided. Episode 69 gives us Ricardo Montalban as Pietro, the swaggering hero, born a common man, who seeks nothing but revenge against those who've wronged him. Director William Castle, known more for gimmicky Sci fi/horror, helms this attempt to cash in on the sweeping epics of the time, and we're pairing it with a sweet, roasty porter that goes down smoothly. We're talking swords, romance and Carolyn Jones.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 68 - Q: The Winged Serpent (1982)

This Saturday, episode 68 drops, and it's a fun one. Q: The Winged Serpent, Larry Cohen's 1982 monster picture/police procedural, with Q barrel aged Stout, kindly provided by @ogopogobrewing. There's a monster flying around New York eating folks, and the only person who knows where it lives is a small time crook with less than zero scruples. Michael Moriarty, David Carradine and Richard Roundtree are all in fine form, and so is this Stout, which is aged for 11 months in Woodford Reserve and Heaven Hill barrels. Watch the skies, because Q is out there.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 67 - Blue Sunshine (1978)

This week we wrap up October with another horror movie, 1978's weird, freaky Blue Sunshine, with Landlocked Blues Sour, a collaboration from @backpocketbrewing and @morebrewing, which the fine folks at @backpocketdbq were kind enough to provide. People are suddenly losing their hair and freaking out. And by freaking out, they savagely attack and murder other people. After being wrongly accused of murdering three women, Jerry Zipkin goes on the run to prove he's innocent. This leads him to Ed Flemming, who was selling Blue Sunshine acid at Stanford 10 years prior. Ed is also an ascending star in the world of politics. The beer is inspired by the Blue Hawaiian cocktail, with pineapple, orange puree, and toasted coconut, with blue spirulina for the unique color. Saturday is going to be a party, so join us.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 66 - Zombie Movies

It's zombies, zombies, zombies! Episode 66 is a new special episode, Zombies, with a trio of tasty beers provided by our friends at @potosibrewingco. Zombie movies have been around forever, and like most of you, we're huge fans. Slow walkers or runners, supernatural or created by science, we're trying to cover as much as we can, with the help of Lux Premium Lager, Steamboat Shandy and Snake Hollow IPA. Zombies, Beer and October, what could be better? Join us Saturday.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 65 - The Dunwich Horror (1970)

Our new episode, The Dunwich Horror, with NoHo BoHo Czech Style Pilsner, kindly given to us by North Hollywood's @lawlessbeer drops this Saturday. H.P. Lovecraft's insane story gets the Roger Corman/AIP treatment in this 1970 horror picture that kicks off shOctober. Dean Stockwell is Wilbur Whateley, the shunned weirdo of the shunned Whateley clan of Dunwich. And honestly, he should be shunned. He wants to open a portal to bring "The Old Ones" into our dimension, which ain't gonna be good for us. Wilbur and his twin are the product of an obscene coupling, with Wilbur getting the looks. Sandra Dee, trying to shed her goody goody image, comes along as the object of Wilbur's desire and disturbed plans. It's weird, trippy and freaky, and we paired it with a clean, refreshing, quaffable Pilsner from Lawless. It seems a good pairing, what with the lawlessness of those rascally Whateley's. Join us this Saturday.

Beer and B Movies: Episode 64 - Who Killed Teddy Bear (1965)

1965's dark neo noir Who Killed Teddy Bear, with four tasty beers @prbrewing, from Decorah, IA gave us. Sal Mineo is a disturbed young man peeping and making vulgar phone calls to his coworker. The menace escalates, a lot of topics that were taboo at the time are examined, and the ending is definitely not happy. Fortunately, we have four beers to ease us along: B.T.O. Amber Bock, Plomme Saison, Catchin' a Buzz Kölsch and Upper Iowa Common. Tune in Saturday.
