We’re kicking off this Halloween season by reviewing slasher sequels.  The first movie on the list is Child’s Play 2.  Chucky’s back and it’s playtime!

In the final installment of our Cruel Summer series, we’re watching a sequel 26 years in the making.  Was it worth the wait?  Tune in and find out.

Cruel Summer (pt 2/3)

This week we decided to review Backdraft 2, the sequel you wanted 18 years to see.  Did this movie spark our interests, or did we get majorly burned?

Cruel Summer (pt 1/3)

This month we're looking at some real stinkers for our selection of sequels.  First up is Single White Female 2: The Psycho, a charming film teaching you that toxic relationships are okay and meeting new friends who empower you might just be the worst choice you could make.  Wait...

(Sneak-quels part 3 of 3)

We’re wrapping up our review of sneak-quels.  Back in the day, studios were so impressed with the cult popularity of Se7en that they wanted to make Ei8ht.  No one wanted to be part of that, so they repurposed it into Solace.  Listen to the episode and find out why scrapping Ei8ht was definitely the right move.

So it’s time to review our next Sneak-quel……DIE HARD?!?!  If the original writer had his way, we’d be watching a 70-year-old Frank Sinatra dive off the side of a skyscraper ahead of a massive explosion.  Actually…I might have watched that.

This week we are reviewing E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.  Wait, that’s not the second in a series…but it ALMOST was.  Tune in to find out what movie very nearly got the sequel treatment and how our loveable alien buddy could have been very, very different.

We decided this week to review a sequel which features the late, great Charles Grodin.  This week's show is all about My Summer Story (a/k/a It Runs in the Family) which is the sequel to A Christmas Story.  A (mostly) new cast stars in the sequel to the perennial cult classic.  How do they stack up against the original?  Listen to find out.

In honor of LGBTQ+ Pride Month, we're reviewing An Englishman in New York, the (kinda) sequel to The Naked Civil Servant (1975).  John Hurt returns to play English humorist and raconteur, Quentin Crisp, now living out his twilight years in New York.

Speaking of Englishmen in New York, we are extremely honored to have Richard G Jones of Gray Jones Media (https://grayjonesmedia.com/) reviewing this movie with us.
