Episode 67 ~ Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994)



We're finally back to Phantasm! This time around we get to the third entry, released in the mid-90s. Does it hold up well, or does the series finally stumble here? Were the haters right all along? Can the series still surprise 15 years after the original entry?

Well, it turns out, at least in our case, we find it overall makes the second movie stronger in hindsight and adds its own wrinkles on the story. There still isn't anything quite like Phantasm, even in its third entry. Find out why that is in today's episode!

Episode 66 ~ Tremors 3: Back to Perfection (2001)



Finally, we made it back to Perfection! In our sequel summer special we made the jump to the third entry in Tremors! Though there are a lot of different opinions on the movies past the first one, there is one thing that remains true: (so far) they have all been worth watching. The third entry continues the trend.

How do they manage to do it? Find out in this episode where we learn that somehow the crew has still got it!

Episode 65 ~ Best of the Best II (1993)



Finally, we return to the world of Eric Roberts and Phillip Rhee! How do you make a sequel to a surprise hit sports film? Well, by doing something entirely different! In Best of the Best II, things go sideways, and not in ways you might predict.

Coming at the tail end of the action movie era, this sequel changes genres and manages to sell itself while doing just that. Does it succeed totally? Check out today's episode and learn exactly what is going on here!

Episode 64 ~ Critters 2: The Main Course (1988)



It's time for more Critters! We've taken our time to finally get to this sequel that we've wanted to do for some time now. You might expect this one to jus be more of the same, but no, it is a proper sequel to the cult classic original!

What happened after the events of the last movie? And can they possibly top the madness of that one? You might be surprised!
