Drew Wood at Mpls St. Paul Magazine interviews Mike, Kevin and Bill.

Joel at BlobFest

The classic 1950s sci-fi/horror movie “The Blob” was partially filmed in and around the little town of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, and the town’s merchants, especially the historic Colonial Theater, do their best not to let people forget it. Every summer they have a weekend-long “BlobFest” and one of the guests for this year’s fest will be Joel. More information here.

Weekend Discussion Thread: Your Favorite Parody Host Segments

On Twitter, E. A. Bruce, aka @NeoMyers, asked:

Have you ever done a piece on favorite “genre-bending” episodes? Like “Last of Wild Horses”?

I assume what he means by “‘genre-bending’ episodes” are the ones where one or more host segments take a familiar convention, sci-fi or otherwise, and parody/satirize it. His fave is the “Star Trek” “Mirror, Mirror” parody in “Last of the Wild Horses.”

I’m going to pick an obvious one: the segment in “Fire Maidens of Outer Space” that parodies “Aliens.” “Uh, say, Crow? Could you please kill me?”

What’s your pick?
