This Halloween, we find out the real podcast episode...was inside you all along

In between 'franchise' episodes (where we delve into a particular film or series of films) we'll be doing bonus episodes where we talk about wider trends in sequel culture, sequel news, new trailers and whatever the hell we like.

It's almost Halloween so Chris and Allen get spooky. In this episode:

-Why we aren’t going to discuss the thing everyone is discussing so in a way we do end up discussing it

-Halloween

-Maniac Cop

-Puppet Master

-We have a Quiz

-And a competition! That you should or should not enter

-Nachos

It’s October, which means 2 things, Halloween is almost upon us and Allen and Chris will be returning to Crystal Lake to watch more Friday the 13th movies.

Last year, we watched the first three instalments, so it was inevitable that this year we would look at the next three - the incorrectly titled The Final Chapter, A New Beginning which set up the beginning of a whole new plot thread…which was totally ignored by Jason Lives. Join us as we discuss:

Analogous nudity

Crispin Glover’s live appearances

The Crystal Lake Library system

Corey Feldman’s Tommy Sheppard showing them how it's done

Reckless Reggie’s gallusness

And the surprising excellence of one of the chapters!

Remind yourself of the films here
