An American Werewolf in Paris (1997) (with Joel Edmiston)
We're back with special guest Joel Edmiston to cover the much maligned 1997 sequel to our beloved AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON, fittingly titled AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN PARIS. Not to spoil the episode too much but this movie sucks! The carefully balanced horror-comedy tone of the first film has been replaced by pure goofball Looney Tunes silliness, and not in a fun way! We also talk about some other films we'e been watching, such as: NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, GET OUT, BRING HER BACK, THE PER...

An American Werewolf in London (1981) (with Joel Edmiston)
We're back! So sorry for the delay, we missed last week due to Ben being stricken with shingles. A late October witch's pox no doubt. But now we're back with another spooky duology so just pretend it's still Halloween for a few more days. Friend of the show, past and future guest, and comedian extraordinaire Joel Edmiston joins us to talk about one of, if not the best horror comedy ever AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON! We talk about John Landis (prison) we talk about Joel's hatred for Howie Ma...

Queen of the Damned (2002)
The Vampire Lestat has been asleep for many many years... until he finally hears something that excites him out of his slumber: nü metal!

Interview with the Vampire (1994) (with Jordan Seccareccia aka Dis Count's Discount Diss Count)
It's October and we're neck-deep in the bottomless pit of horror films! Our good friend Jordan Seccareccia joins us again to revisit a Certified Cruise Classic: INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE. We talk Tom, we talk luscious production design, we talk (and mock) Mr. Bradley Pitts, and of course we go on many, many tangents! We also celebrate several important birthdays! Some other movies discussed on this episode are ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, THE MASTER, MAGNOLIA, HIGHEST 2 LOWEST, BAMBOOZLED, RED ...

The Descent: Part 2 (2009)////The 50th Toronto International Film Festival
We're back and we're going down down down down, way down in the direct-to-dvd hole with THE DESCENT: PART DEUX. More caves, more crawlers, more throat-ripping! But first, we share out timely coverage of the 50th Toronto International Film Festival, surely the best one yet! Did we see much? No, not really. But what we saw was pure gold, right? Well no, mostly slop. But amongst the slop there are always gems. Every bowl of slop has a gem, as the saying goes. We're talking FUCK MY SON!, THE FENC...

The Descent (2005)///Charlie Kirk and 'cherubslayer123'
New franchise, we're spelunking, we're caving, come join us! But before we talk about Neil Marshall's 2005 horror hit, please join us as we talk about this crazy world's descent into Charlie Kirk mania and Ben's latest nemesis 'cherubslayer123' (we recorded this episode a few days after he was killed so it was fresh then and now we're releasing it after nobody gives a shit anymore but please still listen it's a funny story) Of course we also find time to talk about other movies we've been wat...

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025)///Jimmy Kimmel Lemon Party
Comedy is now illegal in America and by extension Canada... we regret to inform you that this will have to be the final episode of The Franchisees. But boy are we going out with a bang! SPINAL CRAP POO is here to make us all laugh and remind us of the ravages of time! Is this movie worth seeing? Is it fun to be back with the boys again? Or is it just sad? Listen to find out but you know already come on. We also talk about the fate of James Christian Kümmel (aka Jimmy Kimmel) and the late Char...

I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)
Not a great franchise tbh! But here we are at the end anyway, at least the end for now. It'd be funny if they just called the sequel to this legasequel I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. Just keep it going. Alex has seen no new movies this week. Ben watched WAR OF THE WORLDS, THE IRON LADY, THE SECT, BRING HER BACK, THE BROTHERS GRIMM, PROVIDENCE, MERMAID LEGEND, PAVEMENTS, BABY INVASION, SHIFTY, HIGH TENSION, HIS MOTORBIKE HER ISLAND, THE NEW WORLD, NOUVELLE VAGUE, and HIGHEST 2 LOWEST. ...

I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006)
This piece of shit, I mean really what are we doing here talking about this garbage, life is short, it's summer time we're supposed to be surfing and sunbathing and sucking cock, what is this, what are we doing with our lives, what have we done to deserve this, I'm going to fucking blow my fucking brains out! Just kidding, we're back with the third and clearly worst instalment of the I KNOW WHAT YOU DID franchise (or is it more the LAST SUMMER franchise?). This is some god damned direct-to-vi...

I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998)
More like I still know what you did two summers ago am I right? It's summertime again and the survivors of the first film win a free trip to the Bahamas... what could possibly go wrong? This film is filled with 90s horror sequel hilarity, including an inspired turn by Jack Black as a white guy with dreads who loves, you guessed it, weed and pussy! We got Brandy, we got Mekhi Phifer, we got Jeffrey Combs and Bill Cobbs, we have all these new characters to kill. Alex and Ben also find time to t...

I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
A killer fisherman? A web of lies and guilt? 90s teens standing together on a poster in a vaguely triangular formation? It's all from the #twisted mind of Kevin Williamson! We're back with a new franchise: I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. It's still summer right? August 17th is still summer. Not even up for debate really. Anyway, it feels kind of funny doing this franch before Williamson's superior SCREAM but they made too many of those and this series has a new one out, also titled I KNOW WH...
