Is there a program guide of what's on Monster HD (wont have my DishHD until the 25th, but was curious)

How do they define "classic"? Does this mean only 1960 or before? Warner bros. has a lot of great horror flix from the 70's and 80s and I wonder what the mix is like.....

I've been really disappointed with the new Kung Fu channel. The Guy Channel, or whatever they called it, had some decent programming, despite showing Fail Safe twenty times a week.
