We conclude this year’s MonsterCast with one of the most unique thrillers to ever come out of Hollywood. 1955’s “The Night of the Hunter” remains as frightening and dream-like as it was upon release. Brandon & Eric welcome back Jay Hoffman to discuss Charles Laughton’s only outing as director. The hosts praise the sinister performance of Robert Mitchum as Reverend Harry Powell. They also highlight the wonderful contributions of Lillian Gish and Shelley Winters. The central themes of good vs evil, men & women and religion are also touched upon in the episode.

FEATURING: Brandon Davis, Eric Flick and Jay Hoffman

Front Row Classics kicks off June with a discussion of George Stevens’ Oscar-winning film, A Place in the Sun. Allison Means joins Brandon and Eric to discuss this well-made drama from 1951. They discuss the bold direction from Stevens as well as the Oscar-nominated performances from Montgomery Clift and Shelley Winters. The hosts also pay tribute to the legendary Elizabeth Taylor in her first mature role in a film. The discussion also turns to the central themes of the film, which amazingly are still relevant in 2022.
