About this listen

A franchise podcast for the Horror Completionist. Hosts James Strayer and John C Meyers talk and analyze their way film by film through horror's longest running franchises. How do they evolve? What do new filmmakers bring when a franchise is several films deep? Usually, they start out great but perhaps 6- 8 entries in... they start to hurt a bit. Music by Michael Arthur Holloway and logo by Ethan Kimberling.

    We take on our first video game franchise! Does the creeping dread of the game translate to the film? Can you jam lots of exposition into a story that already has a story? And who is... Pyramid Head and why is he here?

    While there are only two films in this franchise out now, a 3rd arrives in theaters on January 23rd of 2026!

    We finish the franchise by talking about this very much related, very much a sequel... er, remake of the first one? Shot in Romania and taking place in Romania (!), this new version follows Charlie and Evil Ed taking on Elizabeth Bathory.
