Midwest Monsters Episode 212 - Summer Blockbusters

As we rapidly approach the heart of summer, we are taking a look back at the "Summer blockbuster" over the years.  Now a staple of the seasonal zeitgeist and a source of great wonder for young viewers, movies like  "The Omen" and "Jurassic Park" have become more than just water cooler talk but rather event viewings and true summer escapism. Join as we start with the 1975 birth of the blockbuster with "Jaws" and work our way through the years; looking at not only what the biggest blockbuster was but also the big horror release as well. Available now on iTunes, podbean and our blog. Thanks for listening!
