In between 'proper' episodes (where we delve into a particular film or franchise) 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.
In this spooky Halloween themed bonus episode a grumpy Chris and excited Allen discuss:
Practical effects vs CGI!
Hocus Pocus!
John Carpenter fights a Zombie!
Clowns!
Horror Taglines!
Trailer Talk!
And the results of our #moviemonstermashup competition in Allen’s Challenge!

COMING SOON ON DIMINISHING RETURNS: PROMETHEUS
DIMINISHING RETURNS: A comedy podcast about movie sequels, prequels, spin-offs and reboots. Hosted by Allen and Chris. WARNING: Contains Scottish accents and spoilers.
Allen and Chris take a break from the city and head to the idyllic surroundings of Crystal Lake…hey what was that noise?
On this episode we tackle the first three parts of the Friday the 13th film series, one of the most iconic franchises in horror.
Allen is unsurprisingly a super-fan while Chris had not seen any of the films until the week before they recorded this episode.
We talk the evolution of slasher movies, 3D gimmicks, final girls, and how long until Jason Voorhees becomes the Jason we all know and fear.
