It took over half a century for the stop-motion movie The Primevals (2023) to finally get released. This grand tale of lizard men, yetis, different lizard men, and different yetis (who are also lizard men) left us with a concern that rarely gets addressed in "lost world" media: What happens next?

A realistic, two-hour dinner conversation doesn't look like the kind of movie where you'd find a monster, right? But looks can be deceiving. This week, we're going where no monster podcast has gone before!

Way back in cowboy times, a small town in Iowa was visited by a pterodactyl with laser vision. What better way is there to start the morning than by unpacking that?

In 1975, Universal Pictures released Jaws, the birth of a new shark-centric media landscape. But after the critical and financial failure of its three subsequent installments, the franchise was indefinitely abandoned. Now, in 2025, the powers that be have called on two snarky monster devotees to unearth the concept. We're Adam and Allie. Are You Afraid of the Shark Universe?

More people are familiar with the David Bowie song "Cat People" than they are the 1982 film for which the song was written. This tale of sex panthers, melting corpses, and unethical zoos has us wondering exactly how uncomfortable we should be the next time we find ourselves in a pet store.
