Now THIS is what we're talking about! It's got it all! Fear of nuclear holocaust, fear of military experimentation...cows. Oh, you want more? Well, don't worry: "Fiend Without A Face" also has invisible, psychokinetic, brain-eating, spinal-fluid-draining, BRAIN MONSTERS. It's so 50's sci-fi and so good AND made by British people?

Episode 093 - Fiend Without A Face

Now THIS is what we’re talking about! It’s got it all! Fear of nuclear holocaust, fear of military experimentation...cows. Oh, you want more? Well, don’t worry: “Fiend Without A Face” also has invisible, psychokinetic, brain-eating, spinal-fluid-draining, BRAIN MONSTERS. It’s so 50’s sci-fi and so good AND made by British people? We love it, and came around to a double “buy” (our highest praise). Crank up those Canadian, experimental, radioactive waves and get into it!
