WITHOUT WARNING is currently available to stream on TUBI.

Lock the door and bolt the windows, because Classic Episode 48 has just broken out of the ScreamQueenz Crypt!

This time, my special guest KELLEY KOMBRINCK from NIGHT OF THE LIVING PODCAST joins me to discuss Greydon Clark's 1980 sci-fi schlockfest WITHOUT WARNING.

A fun day at the lake turns into a living nightmare for a group of teens who must team up with a pair of grizzled old coots to battle an alien predator with a most unique weapon who has been hunting humans for sport.

Despite its low budget, WITHOUT WARNING is famous for featuring two future Oscar-winners (Jack Palance & Martin Landau), a future Golden Globe winner (David Caruso) and unforgettably icky creature design by Ve Neill (Syfy's FACE OFF).
