It’s the sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino) , Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) explore those direct-to-video sequels of childhood classic, horror franchises, and action movies; anything squeezing name recognition out of an intellectual property, all mostly ending up on VHS and bargain bin DVDs. In the first episode they discuss Casper Meets Wendy. They made a sequel to that movie Casper starring Shelley Duvall, Teri Garr, George Hamilton, Hilary Duff, and, of course, Pauly Shore… Oh god.

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino) , Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the threequel to I Know What You Did Last Summer called I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer. Listen as they talk about literally anything else other than this movie, because folks, this movie is bad. It’s so bad they’d rather talk about other movies, like Stomp The Yard: Homecoming or The Lion King II: Simba's Pride. They also talk about how Shak picked this movie sight unseen, which turns out to be torture for everyone involved. They also touch on how Sara doesn’t watch too many horror movies. They also define the tropes of film noir. Anything but this movie. Listen!

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino) , Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss a classic in the direct-to-video Disney sequel canon: The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride. They talk about attractive lions, Big Mane Energy, and furries… Listen, Disney knew what they were doing when they made these lions look like attractive humans, and now you just have to accept the fact that a lot of the discussion will revolve around these sexy animals. Sorry!

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss this, uhh, direct-to-video sequel to the prequel to the sequel of The Mummy remake… or something like that, it’s very complicated. The movie is The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption, starring Victor Webster as Mathayus, the Scorpion King; okay, so he’s not The Rock but this movie also has Ron Perlman, Billy Zane, and Dave Bautista (barely)! Listen as your hosts try to make their way through this Egyptian fantasy tale filled with white people, plus some talk about who’s hot in this movie, as expected!

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the direct-to-video sequel to the Brendan Fraser film George of the Jungle, 2003’s George of the Jungle 2. The sequel deals with George and Ursula’s struggle with living in the jungle and being a family in the jungle after the events of the first—wait, what happens in the end credits scene? Wow, really? That’s actually what happens? Oh my. Well, I’m sure the hosts won’t spend too much time talking about that… Oh, they do? Okay, well, prepare yourselves listeners for so much confusion over the end credits scene and the film itself.

Seequels: Episode 6 - George of the Jungle 2

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the direct-to-video sequel to  the Disney classic Mulan, 2004’s Mulan II. It’s a clear step down from the original, but how much so? There’s an arranged marriage plot and racist stuff, but what else is there? Honestly? Also, the hosts give an update on which previously-mentioned DTV star follows them, or not. One final thing, please follow the hosts of Seequels. All of them!

Seequels: Episode 7 - Mulan II

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the first direct-to-video sequel in the Child’s Play franchise, its sixth entry, Curse of Chucky. The trio ponder many things, including what scares them, the Chucky lore, and if this is actually the best film they’ve seen so far on this podcast. That, plus much more! And please, if you follow one of the hosts on Twitter, follow them all!

Seequels: Episode 8 - Curse of Chucky

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the 2010 prequel to Smokin' Aces, Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball. Underwhelming doesn’t even begin to cover this follow-up and finale entry in the Smokin’ Aces franchise. Imagine all the action and wackiness from the original and have that pared down to below mediocrity. Is this a new bottom for our hosts or — you know what? Let’s not pretend. This movie sucked! Boo! They should have done a Scorpion King sequel!

Seequels: Episode 9 - Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the sixth installment in the Leprechaun series, Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood. Listen, oh boy, where do we start? With the awful racial stereotypes? The fact that this was at least better than I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer? Or poor Warwick Davis? Get in THE HOOD, y’all.

Seequels: Episode 10 - Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the 2017 sequel to Surf’s Up, Surf's Up 2: WaveMania. This one might take a long time to explain, but let’s just cut to the chase: the sequel features characters from the original penguin surfing film, joined by penguins played by WWE wrestlers and also Vince McMahon, playing a penguin named Mr. McMahon. And let’s not even touch on the sick stuff that’s going on with two animals and a straw, all in a PG-rated CGI animated DTV movie. Will the hosts lay the smack down on this epic crossover, or will they end up enjoying whatever the hell this is? Listen and find out!

Seequels: Episode 11 - Surf's Up 2: WaveMania

It’s the direct-to-video sequel to the podcast you didn’t know existed. Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss another Disney TV sequel, 2000’s The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea. And joining them is their first ever guest, Petrana Radulovic (@Pet_rana) who knows a thing or two about Disney DTV sequels! 11 years after the original classic, how well does this sequel continue the timeless story? How good is the music? What’s wrong with Flounder? And will the gang bring up beastiality while they have a guest over? All these questions and more will be answered!

Seequels: Episode 12 - The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss  one of the direct-to-video sequels to the original 1992 sci-fi action film, Universal Soldier: Regeneration. Let’s not even go into the timeline of this franchise, instead let’s discuss how almost every actor in this is indistinguishable, how truly dark the tone is, and… how bad this movie might be? Despite all that, might this be the DTV action film gem they’ve been looking for? Well…

Seequels: Episode 13 - Universal Soldier: Regeneration

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the DTV prequel to the comedy “classic” Van Wilder, Van Wilder: Freshman Year. It’s a raunchy comedy from the late 2000s that most certainly does make anyone reminiscent of the problematic days of 2000s comedies. You want misogyny? You want racism? You want inaccurate portrayals of vibrators? You got it all here. Just don’t expect comedy…

Seequels : Episode 14 - Van Wilder: Freshman Year

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the 2010 DTV sequel to the 2008 DTV sequel to the 1987 vampire flick The Lost Boys. It’s Lost Boys: The Thirst and we can tell you at least one of the co-hosts on this show was for sure thirsting for this movie to be featured on the podcast (it was Ale, duh). The conversation goes from Corey Feldman, to Tommy Wiseau, to of course werewolves. And no, they still won’t backtrack on Universal Soldier: Regeneration.

Seequels : Episode 15 - Lost Boys: The Thirst

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the 1996 DTV sequel to Tremors, Tremors 2: Aftershocks. Sure, it’s low on budget and high on comedy, but it’s a pretty good little horror movie, says the Seequels gang. They discuss the hotness of Fred Ward, Reba McEntire, and meat cubes… I mean MEET CUTES, sorry.

Seequels: Episode 16 - Tremors 2: Aftershocks

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) finally talk about the first-ever Disney DTV animated sequel, 1994’s The Return of Jafar. The sequel to the classic Aladdin is also notable for starring Jason Alexander, not starring Robin Williams, and having Aladdin turn into a mooching boyfriend to Jasmine. Is this a stand-out DTV feature, or something very middle of the road? Just rub the lamp and find out, guys.

Seequels: Episode 17 - The Return of Jafar

First off, your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence)  would like to warn you the subject of this episode, the 1996 DTV sequel Poison Ivy II: Lily, is pretty racy. It’s about a student who decides to become a sexy alter ego and tries to seduce her art teacher. It’s a ‘sleazy 90s softcore porn wannabe DTV thriller! So put on your black lipstick (properly) and listen!

Seequels: Episode 18 - Poison Ivy II: Lily

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) are in desperate need of a good DTV action movie sequel. And in their quests they’ve turned to RZA and The Man with the Iron Fists 2. From the director of The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption, does this martial arts action throwback top the Seequel’s gang DTV lists? Listen and find out! But also, please get in touch and recommend them good movies, for the love of god.

Seequels: Episode 19 - The Man with the Iron Fists 2

In celebration of 20 episodes, your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence), for the first time in a long time, watch a GOOD movie! It’s Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, the 2005 DTV animated sequel to the 2002 original Lilo & Stitch. From great characters, honest humor, attacks on cultural appropriation, and its beautiful runtime of 68 minutes, this DTV sequel has it all! And so does this episode, so enjoy!
