The Franchisees
Two film-loving friends devour entire franchises, tracing their theatrical rise, direct-to-video-fall, and occasional redemption. Banter, bits, and bad impressions follow.

Season 27
From BAD BOYS to the "bad boy" of Swedish cinema... from HUMAN CENTIPEDE to the Spider God... that's right, it's a dark November of the Soul with friend of the pod, future guest(?) Ingmar Bergman.
Alex and Ben are tackling some real cinema for a change with Bergman's "Silence of God" trilogy. Wish us luck! Our first film of the series is 1961's THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY. How will the silly boys talk about such a serious film? I'm sure you'll be delighted to find out!
Next week we are covering the second film in this thematic trilogy, WINTER LIGHT. Join us then for more wacky times!
