Welcome back to your favorite movie podcast, Not a Bomb!! This podcast swings back into action, digging into cinema's ripest box office banana peels to see if any deserve a second peel... er, chance. On this week’s episode, we're thrilled to have a special guest and all-around top banana—John! We are going bananas during Ape-Ril with the 1961 horror/sci-fi flick Konga. And if you haven’t figured it out by now, we’re also stuffing this post with as many banana and ape puns as possible!

Prepare for a wild ride as we delve into the "ape-peeling" world of British botanist Dr. Charles Decker and his experiments. Dr. Decker's obsession with a growth serum leads to the birth of a monstrous ape named Konga as well as some funky plants with a hunger for red meat. Join us as we dissect the science, horror, and unintended comedy of this cult classic film.

Konga is directed by John Lemont and stars Michael Gough, Margo Johns, Jess Conrad, and Claire Gordon

Welcome to your favorite movie podcast, Not a Bomb!! This is the podcast where we revisit some of the biggest box office failures in cinema history and explore whether they deserve a second chance.

After delving into deep discussions on “mother!” and “Blade Runner”, we decided to take a whimsical turn with a new theme month - Ape-Ril. That's right, in the coming weeks, it's all about monkey business at Not A Bomb. This week, our focus is on the 1988 horror film (?) - “Monkey Shines.” Directed by horror trailblazer George A. Romero, “Monkey Shines” tells the story of a person with quadriplegia who develops an unexpected relationship with a monkey… or rather, a small ape. Throughout its two-hour runtime, Monkey Shines goes to great lengths not to frighten the audience. However, the plot will leave you pondering how frozen brain tissue and Gatorade can forge a telekinetic bond between a small ape and a quadriplegic. Oh, and we dive into one of the most peculiar sex scenes in film history. You simply have to listen to hear all about it.

Monkey Shines is directed by George A. Romero and stars Jason Beghe, John Pankow, Kate McNeil, and Joyce Van Patten.
