2022/09/08

The next sequel we are reviewing is "The Purge: Anarchy” and for it, I interviewed an actor who knows a thing about playing a bad guy in Actor Jasper Cole. Jasper's career spans over 40 years, which is insane and a testament to his passion for his craft. Jasper talked about being in Jason Takes Manhattan, working with Dee Wallace, finding his niche as a bad guy, and lots more. Jasper plays a bad guy but is the nicest guy ever and you will love him.

2022/09/01

This is our last Re-Release and it is quite the goodie. We are so excited to finally have the chance to dip our toes into the pool of Nightmare on Elm Street sequels and no better place to start than with Part 4 The Dream Master. We talked broke down all the iconic kills, Freddy's one-liners, how they get rid of the dream warriors pretty quick, Alice's amazing character transformation, and of course the karate fight involving "invisible" Freddy. We couldn't discuss a horror legend with just the two

This week's Re-Release has us looking back at the time we welcomed a Horror legend and one of Doug's favorite final girls in horror history, actress Lisa Wilcox. Lisa starred as "Alice Johnson" in A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 & 5. We talked about her falling on stage in junior high doing a play, moving to California for High School, John Stamos, Freddy Krueger, Brady Bunch, Star Trek, and lots more. I love hearing about moments when folks get discovered and Lisa's is one of my favorites so

The Good, The Bad, and The Sequel ·

2022/08/18

This week's sequel has us traveling to a dystopian future where a young Mel Gibson (Mad Max) will do just about anything for gasoline. This movie has an all-star cast with Mel Gibson and Vernon Wells. We, of course, talked about Jason Voorhees sorry I mean Lord Humongous, Feral Kid (What the hell was he), us both falling head over heels for Warrior Woman, how insane Vernon Wells is in this movie, and lots more. Mad Max 2 was our highest Rotten Tomatoes score yet at 93%. This is also available to

2022/08/11

When it comes to movies you aren't supposed to be rooting for the bad guy, but how could I not root for this week's guest Vernon Wells? Vernon played legendary bad guys in Mad Max 2 as Wez and in Commando as Bennett. Vernon has quite the origin story because he had ZERO interest in being on camera, he wanted to be behind it. Luckily a director stuck him front and center, the rest is history. Of course, we talked about Weird Science, Joel Silver, Arnold Schwarzenegger, his start in acting, his love

Enjoy this week's Re-Release of Jaws 2. Not too much longer til new episodes are out for your earholes to enjoy. This week we are talking "Jaws 2". "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...." is the perfect tagline for the 1978 sequel to Jaws because this shark is on a mission in this one. Jamie sees a lot of similarities between the shark and Jason Voorhees and Doug couldn't get over how bad the teens were at sailboating. Also, you were in for a treat when the actor who plays

Hey, sequel lovers, Doug here. We are taking a little detour on our sequel-watching journey for me to settle in with my family's new little addition, but that doesn't mean we don't have anything for you. We are going to pick a few sequels from our 1st year to Re-Release because many of you probably haven't gone back that far in our catalog, which we understand since we have over 220 episodes. We have released a new episode for almost 176 weeks in a row and we promise to be back soon with some EPIC

Friday the 13th: A New Beginning

2022/07/21

This week we are talking "Friday the 13th A New Beginning" which is one of the most controversial of the series and a lightning rod for opinions from fans. This is our 6th Friday the 13th and we had a blast discussing it. We talked about some of the behind the scene nuggets we read about, our dream of a prequel about Ethel and JR, those damn enchiladas, Violet's dance moves, THAT ending, and so much more.

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Friday the 13th A New Beginning” and for it, I interviewed our first final girl from the franchise, Actress Melanie Kinnaman who played "Pam Roberts". Melanie talked about her journey to being a final girl that started in western Massachusetts with a stop along in NYC where she was a dancer and then started acting in plays. She even played "Cheryl Ladd" in a Saturday Night Live sketch about the "Battle of the Network Stars" back in the late 70s then landed a role

Piranha II The Spawning

2022/07/07

This week we are talking "Piranha II The Spawning" and this just so happens to be our second James Cameron-directed flick this year... YEP, James Cameron directed this one, well 75% of it until he was fired for taking too many shots. For this one, we brought back our buddy Nick, who has helped us make sense of Munchie, Ghoulies, and more. Nick came prepared with some behind the scene stories and even noticed some parts of Piranha II that would show up in later James Cameron flicks. Piranha II had us

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Piranha II: The Spawning” and for it, I interviewed Actress, Singer, and Activist Carole Davis. Carole grew up with her first love of singing where she was singing all over the world, but then after going to an audition just to support a friend, she was called in to audition and got it. The movie didn't matter because she chose most of her roles based on where they were being shot. Carole was in so many great movies like Mannequin, The Flamingo Kid, The Shrimp on

The Last Sharknado: It's About Time

The Good, The Bad, and The Sequel ·

2022/06/23

This week we are talking "The Last Sharknado: It's About Time" which I went thinking this was the 3rd film in the series, but sadly mistaken. This is a sequel that took a sorta joke and turned it into a franchise that people love, Jamie not so much. We discussed the main plot of the movie is wrong, the time traveling, the many borrowed movie quotes, Dee Snider crushing it, and so much more. These sharknados seem to follow Fin and the gang, but you be the judge. This is a video review you can watch

The next sequel we are reviewing is "The Last Sharknado: It's About Time” and I got to interview Actor Patrick Labyorteaux. Patrick and I connected on Twitter when I was talking about his character from a sequel we covered a few months back in "Ghoulies go to College" and he replied! Patrick was a blast to chat with about his origin story, being a child actor, reinventing himself as a jock, Summer School, voiceover work, and more. Patrick loves acting but also loves Hollywood, which was an absolute

Escape from LA

2022/06/09

This week we are talking "Escape from LA" which we wanted to love because the cast is top notch; Russell, Keach, Buscemi, and more, but unfortunately we did not. There were a lot of similarities between the 1st one and a lot of oddities that Carpenter believed 2013 would look like, so we had our action sequel expert Andrew Powers help us break it down. We discussed Peter Fonda surfing, basketball to the death, Jose Cuervo Jones, the president's daughter stealing Air Force 3, the odd value of a

Mannequin 2: On the Move

The Good, The Bad, and The Sequel ·

2022/06/02

This week, we discuss "Mannequin 2: On the Move", which is honestly one of the best sequels we've covered this year. This movie has the perfect 80s/90s feel to it and a great cast that has a young Kristy Swanson, William Ragsdale, Stuart Pankin, Meshach Taylor,, and Terry Kiser absolutely CRUSHING IT! Does this movie have plot holes? Yes, it's like swiss cheese, but it doesn't even matter because it is still hilarious. We discuss kissing mannequins, sexy vs sporty perfume, broadway shows put on by a

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Escape From LA” and for it, I interviewed legendary character actor Peter Jason. Peter said he was a jock in high school and was convinced by a girl to try out for school play and HE GOT IT, from that moment on he did every play he could. Peter talked about how he worked with John Wayne, John Carpenter, the spiders in Arachnophobia, shooting commercials in New Jersey in the 70s, landing Deadwood, and more. Peter has a new movie out on VOD 5/31 called "Deep in the

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Mannequin Two” which is happening because I interviewed an actor who I absolutely love in Stuart Pankin. Stuart started his journey because he loved hamming it up at his family dinners growing up in Philadelphia. We talked about how he landed his 1st job in Hollywood which involves him singing a parody song with Kevin Kline playing piano, so cool. Stuart is hilarious on-screen and off because he had me cracking up a lot during this chat. Stuart has a new movie

This week, we discuss "Jason X" aka Jason Goes to Space. It's Friday the 13th this week, so we are required by sequel law to review one and we picked a doozy. I admittedly never gave this one an honest chance when I rented it at 15 years old, but I had a lot of fun 20 years later. We discussed the reason this movie is set in the future, possible other plots for future installments, the terrible professor, nano spiders, the epic kills, and more.

The next sequel we are reviewing is "Jason X” and that has given me the chance to interview Script Supervisor Daniela Saioni, who is the 1st script supervisor I have ever chatted with. Daniela is from Toronto and had an interesting journey to becoming an internationally known script supervisor which was inspired by Jim Morrison, started with a job in editing, Boondock Saints, and so much more. I loved picking her brain about what a script supervisor does and IT IS A LOT. Great chat. This is a video

This week we are discussing "The Predator" from 2018 which gave us a lot to discuss.This movie had so many plots that we had to bring back our horror sequel expert Chris Egan for an eighth time to break it all down. We discussed the tropey bullies who say "juicy ass burger", the many different Predators, the use of medical disorders for low brow humor, Jacob Trembley outkilling The Predator, and more.
