Rated 20% by Rotten Tomatoes, Mutant Chronicles is a bad, bad movie; still, any film that squeezes in Ron Perlman, John Malkovich, and steampunk tech screams cult classic.

What Super Energy Apocalypse: Recycled lacks in graphics it makes up for in depth; it’s a basic RTS where you’re tasked with building a base to defend against mutant alien zombies.

Monster Invasion looks deceptive simple: save London from Viking monsters with an array of traps; however, they crank up the tempo so quickly that defeat is nearly assured.

Few monster films are as revered as 1954’s Godzilla, and this innovative 3-D Poster (part of the Real Artwork Series) brings the venerable kaiju film to life; it measures 11.5″ tall.

This Shag Master Creature Hoodie is strangely functional: it features an iPod pocket with wire port, removable velcro patches, and swappable bear ears and devil horns. Thanks, Meep!

The Blizzards’ The Reason really lends credence to the phrase, “Hell hath no fury like a women scorned;” thank God most of them aren’t 100 foot tall monsters with flaming hearts.

Part Wolverine and part Creature from the Black Lagoon, “Midnight Snack” Muraida is clad in a black colorway with 6 articulation points; it’s limited to 200 pieces and goes on sale 11/28 here.

Who knew Count Dracula was a medieval hustla: this Vampire Grill tee by Dance Party Massacre shows the Dark Prince’s grill fully blinged-out; it’s actually printed with silver ink.

If last week’s 11″ Mechagodzilla wasn’t enough, this 20″ variant is a walkin’, wrist twirlin’, head swivelin’, screechin’, roarin’ and LED flashin’ monster worthy of the name Gojira.

We realize endorsing this shirt dates us, but we can’t help but crave this Teen Wolf inspired Skate Wolf tee. For the younguns, think Geico caveman with more hair, fangs and a deck.

Monster hunters in training should pick up this Cryptozoology t-shirt by SquidFire; it’s a veritable Who’s Who of supernatural beasties, including Nessie, El Chupacabra and Bigfoot.

Don’t let the cutesy name fool you: this FluffyFriends wallpaper features OhNo!Doom’s FluffyYukYuk plush rampaging down a city street and hurling city buses while FluffyBadBads scatter.

When not guarding Egyptian tombs, Mummies apparently enjoy doing ollies; this Dead Shred t-shirt may be gaudy in purple, but we’ll make an exception for our bandaged friends.
