Our Spooky Sequels series continues as Reviewed to Death opens the puzzle box wide open and ventures straight into the labyrinth of the damned with Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)!Picking up mere moments after Clive Barker’s original masterpiece, Hellraiser II takes Kristy Cotton out of the frying pan and into the psych ward—where the sinister Dr. Channard is obsessed with unlocking the secrets of the Lament Configuration.

Our Spooky Sequels series keeps the undead momentum going, but this week we're bending the rules with a sequel... that’s sort of not a sequel! We're checking out Johannes Roberts' 2021 reboot, Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.Stepping away from the Paul W.S. Anderson / Milla Jovovich action era, this film attempts to mash up the storylines of the first two classic games into a single, gloomy 1998 night.Follow us @Reviewedtodeath Music:“New Arcade” by Creatormix.com“Game Show Music” by Jays Green Screen and Sound EffectsAll additional music provided by Groove Witness -⁠ ⁠⁠⁠www.groovewitness.us⁠Follow Z.C Krol @zc_krolBuy his book Disseverment - https://www.amazon.ca/Disseverment-Horror-Story-Z-C-Krol-ebook/dp/B09JMNHNS5Listen to The Creepy Kroly Podcast on SpotifyCreate your ⁠podcast⁠ today! #madeonzencasterRead our companion written reviews - imgur.com/user/trojaSpaceBandit

Spooky season is officially here, and Reviewed to Death is kicking off our Halloween series! This year, we're diving into iconic classic horror sequels while keeping one foot in current theater releases—starting with a double-feature comparing two very different visits to the hospital.First, we return to Haddonfield for Halloween II (1981) to pick up right where John Carpenter's original left off. We talk Laurie Strode's nightmarish hospital stay, Michael Myers' escalating body count, the iconic synthesizer score, and how it set the tone for slasher sequels to come.Then, we check out the brand-new, fresh-in-theaters Resident Evil (2026) directed by Zach Cregger. Don't worry—this entire section is 100% SPOILER-FREE. We give our spoiler-free first impressions on how this new adaptation handles survival horror, its biological nightmare vibes, and whether it delivers the goods for game fans and moviegoers alike.Follow us @Reviewedtodeath Music:“Alone Together” by Creatormix.comAll additional music provided by Groove Witness -⁠ ⁠⁠⁠www.groovewitness.us⁠Create your ⁠podcast⁠ today! #madeonzencasterRead our companion written reviews - imgur.com/user/trojaSpaceBandit
