It’s down to four shows.  Stop by today (December 30th) and tomorrow (December 31st) to cast your votes.  And then come back on New Year’s Day to vote for the Top Current Genre Show according to you, the TIST readers and listeners.

Coming soon on Saturday B Movie Reel is the 2006 title Mammoth.

Here’s the description…

When a meteor smashes into a local museum the fury of a partially frozen, 40,000 year old mammoth is unleased on a small country town. Local authorities and Government Investigators join forces with Frank Abernathy, the Museum Curator, and his father Simon, a B-Movie enthusiast to bring down the mighty mammoth, thus saving the town (and the world) in a wild adventure that blends the 50′s alien-invasion flick, and the 70′s revenge-of-nature opus into a monster mash-up!
