More than just another movie review podcast, Weirdquel explores and reviews the weirdest TV and movie sequels, prequels, spinoffs, and reboots ever made. Hosted by Manny Benavides and Mike Moody Garcia.
We're '90s kids at heart, which means we love many of director Kevin Smith's films. Now that he's released the apparent capper to his Clerks series, Clerks III, podcaster and filmmaker Les Weiler joins us to discuss whether Smith's latest is a return to form or just another middling fans-only outing like Jay and Silent Bob Reboot.

X and PEARL are Quite Possibly the Best Horror Movies of the Year
Are director Ti West's sly slasher, X, and PEARL, the prequel to X released a few months after the original film's premiere, the best horror movies of 2022? Quite possibly. Guest Myrriah Gossett (https://www.myrriahgossett.com/) joins us to cover both films and the resurgence of the "psycho-biddy" subgenre.

BATMAN RETURNS Riiiiips (with Kenny Madison)
When is a Batman movie not a Batman movie? When director Tim Burton digs deep into his gothic imagination (and/or bellybutton) to follow up his mega hit, 1989’s Batman, with Batman Returns, one of the weirdest superhero sequels of all time!
Kenny Madison (https://www.twitter.com/thekennymadison) from the great Lasso Cast (https://www.lassocast.com/) joins co-hosts Mike Moody Garcia (https://twitter.com/mikemoodygarcia) and Manny Benavides (https://twitter.com/MBen0308) this week to continue our Weird Superhero Summer series with a look back at 1992’s Batman Returns.
This ep is all about Tim Burton, Daniel Waters, The Penguin, Catwoman, Max Shreck and, oh yeah, Batman is mentioned once or twice. Enjoy the pod, high fiber (that doesn’t make sense).

SPIDER-MAN 3 F*cks and Sucks (with Martin Thomas)
In a bid for immediate relevancy, we're launching the podcast with an episode about a fifteen-year-old movie that everyone seems to hate, Spider-Man 3.
What can we say, other than welcome to Weirdquel, the podcast that covers the weirdest sequels, prequels, spinoffs, and reboots ever made!?
Double Toasted's resident Cat Daddy film critic, Martin Thomas (https://twitter.com/Martin_noFro), joins co-hosts Mike Moody Garcia (https://twitter.com/mikemoodygarcia) and Manny Benavides (https://twitter.com/MBen0308) to kick off our Weird Superhero Summer series. The series covers three of the most bizarre yet oddly intriguing superhero movies ever made. It all starts with director Sam Raimi's capper to his Spider-Man film trilogy, released in 2007.
Does Spider-Man 3 deserve it's rep as one of the worst superhero movies of all time? That's the big question on our minds as we explore Tobey Maguire's final starring outing as Spidey. We also choose the movie's weirdest scene, weirdest quote, and its most egregious franchise f*ck up.
And, hey, it's the first episode. Do we miss a few things? Probably. Do we waste time on tangential discussions about The Godfather Part III and Spike Lee? Definitely. We're still calming the nerves, trying to nail the tone, and generally figuring it all out. So go easy.
