About

Didn't your parents always warn that if you watched too much mind-numbing TV, you'd turn into a mindless zombie? Little did they know how literally that would turn out! In EXTRAÑA INVASIÓN (1965),AKA STRANGE INVASION, a small town is horrified as its children become addicted to a mysterious zombifying TV broadcast. John, Andy, and Producer Brad head once again to Argentina to find out whether this movie's cultural commentary can overcome its low budget to make it a zombie classic.Show Notes:Cinebeats remembrance of Emilio VieyraMark Cole review of Strange InvasionAna Strasberg obituaryMARILYN MONROE'S IMAGE // She's gone, but the money lives onLaw Decides Who Owns a Dead Star's Image (NPR)Court Rules for Heirs of a Man Who Took Pictures of Monroe - The New York TimesMerchTheme music composed by Neil Dube.Additional music by Elarasound.www.pond5.comAdditional voice work by Russell Bentley.Contact:zombiestrainspodcast@gmail.comwww.zombiestrainspodcast.comFollow us onAndy's Substack "Fortress of Regret"InstagramFacebook
