Midwest Monsters Episode 277 – Dead End Sequels IV

About this episode

The episode discusses dead-end sequels in film, analyzing three specific movies.

Season’s Greetings dear listeners! We hope you find yourself enjoying these final weeks of 2025 and we are delighted to be a small part of that with a new episode for your ears. On this episode we revisited dead-end sequels, which is exactly like what it sounds like. A sequel that was the quick end of a potential franchise. This series frequently delivers some rough watches but occasionally the diamond in the rough as well. Wonder which happens this episode? Listen in as we examine at “Teen Wolf Too” (1987 – Vinny), “Stir of Echoes:The Homecoming” (2007 – Professor) and “Don’t Breath 2” (2021 – Grizz). Available now on apple podcasts, Spotify and our blog. Thanks as always for sticking with us and Happy Holidays!
