Hey, weirdos. If you enjoy what you're hearing from me in the Weird Darkness podcast

throughout the year, may I ask for a Christmas gift from you? It's an easy one, and it's free

to give. This month, just invite two or three people, you know, to give Weird Darkness a listen.

That is truly the greatest gift you could ever give to me. Letting your family,

friends, coworkers, neighbors and others know about the podcast is incredibly valuable

to me, my bride, Robin, and our cat, Miss Moka Monster. That's it. Tell someone about

the show. Drop a link to weird darkness in your social media, maybe send a text to a few folks

to wish them a very scary Christmas with a link to the show in that text.

It doesn't matter how you do it, but it does make a huge impact when you do.

From all of us here at Marler Manor, thank you, and Merry Christmas.

Hey, Weirdos, our next Weirdo Watch Party is Saturday, January 18th, and sci-fi film host

and all-around nice guy, Juk Sua, is back with another terrible B-movie.

This one from the infamously inept Roger Corman.

From 1958, it's War of the Satellites.

And yet you propose to follow this tenth failure with another attempt, using more of your

volunteers?

An unknown force declares war against planet Earth when the United Nations disobeys

warnings to cease and desist in its attempts at assembling the first satellite in the atmosphere.

We are obviously in the grip of a force stronger than we can oppose.

It's a movie eight weeks in the making, and it shows on every frame of film.

See the last few seconds with a wire holding up a planet.

See the satellites spinning in different directions every time you see them.
