Dr Alfred Brandon: And you call yourself a scientist! That's why you've never been anything more than an assistant!

It's another B-Masters' Roundtable! This time around, we're looking at prehistory according to the B-movie; at those strange and distant times when Neanderthals rubbed shoulders with dinosaurs, when warrior princesses were a dime a dozen, and when you couldn't turn around without tripping over He Whom The Prophecy Foretold. From cavemen to Conan, from swords to sorcerers, from fur bikinis to chain-mail brassieres, you'll find it all here!
It's 10,000 B.S. - all throughout February at the B-Masters' Blog!

"Help us to remember those who went before us: the Old Boys of Homesdale; those who valiantly fell in the hour of sacrifice...."
