What’s better than three trips to the drive-in this summer? How about four and extra movies? In episode 96 of the Classic Horrors Club Podcast, Jeff and I have decided to hit the road and start our 5th Annual Summer at the Drive-In early this year. It’s the weekend of June 15, 1973, and Battle for the Planet of the Apes has just opened, giving the Hillcrest Drive-In in Cedar Falls, Iowa, the opportunity to host an unofficial “Go Ape” marathon.
We both started our relationship with Planet of the Apes as children, and it’s a passion that has consistently remained with us throughout our lives. Please don’t take our discussion as criticism… if we didn’t love Planet of the Apes, we wouldn’t spend so much time talking about it!
Be sure to check out the video companion on the Classic Horrors Club YouTube channel. This month is a very special episode that focuses primarily on Planet of the Apes collectibles and is truly a companion to the audio podcast, where we don’t even discuss all of the wonderful toys, coloring books, figures, and comics.
Tell us what you think… about the movies, about the podcast, about classic horror! Call us at (616) 649-2582 (CLUB), email or send a recording to classichorrors.club@gmail.com or join our Facebook group page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/classichorrors.club/!
We’d also appreciate if you’d give us an honest rating on Apple Podcasts or SoundCloud. Thank you!
We now have an Instagram account! Look for us at classichorrorsclubpodcast. We look forward to adding more content and connecting with all of you there!
