The answer to last week’s movie trivia was John Carradine. The legendary actor and father of actors David and Robert. Thanks to everyone who played and congrats to Peter for getting it right!

Oh, and if you don’t know why the quote was ironic, just look up how John’s eldest left this mortal coil.

This week’s trivia is pretty simple… at least for the cinematic savants who walk among us. Read on for more!

Coming Soon…

Here’s a sneak peek at a movie we’re covering soon for The Forgotten Flix Podcast.

Zone Troopers (1985)

Synopsis (courtesy of Wikipedia): Zone Troopers is a 1985 science fiction film, directed by Danny Bilson and starring Tim Thomerson. The original music score was composed by Richard Band. In Italy during World War II, a patrol of American soldiers discover a spaceship that has crash-landed in the woods, and they come across its alien crew. A nearby Nazi unit also finds out about the alien craft, and sends a patrol to capture it and the Americans.
