Welcome to Odd Trilogies, a podcast dedicated to the strange inter-connectedness of film! To us, an "odd trilogy" is any set of three films—whether bonded by story, spirit, themes, and/or shared cast & crew—that we think has an interesting angle worth digging into! One of the classic examples of a "lesser known" trilogy is that the film Oldboy is actually the second part in Park Chan-wook's "Vengeance Trilogy!" But is it a sequel? What are the other two about? How does each one deal with the concept of vengeance? THAT'S something worth exploring!
Our "trilogies" are not limited to the deliberate or canonical, like Bill & Ted or Pixar's Cars; we also curate and discuss more incidental ones—trios with unofficial or less tangible connections, like our "Odd Nutcracker" or "Rise of Snyder" trilogies! Those trilogies may be based on a commonality that we find interesting or which is significant to film culture.
Whatever the connection is, we (your hosts, Logan Sowash & Andy Carr) apply our love and knowledge of film to analyze these trilogies as whole bodies, as well as the individual films themselves. Listen and laugh with us as we dive into the never-ending pit of cinematic connectivity known as ODD TRILOGIES!

Episode 110: The Toxic Avenger Sequels (with Austin Webster)
Madness! Mayhem! and... a mop?!?! Logan and Andy kick off October by talking about the adventures of a monstrous marauder and New Jersey's first superhero. It's time to talk about THE TOXIC AVENGER SEQUELS! With their trusty pal Austin Webster by their side, the trio takes on Troma's follow-ups to their most iconic character.
Filled with gore, vulgarity, and a detour to Japan, the boys discuss The Toxic Avenger Part II, The Toxic Avenger Part III: The Last Temptation of Toxie, and Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV. How does this niche crime fighter spawn a franchise? Why is Toxie in Japan? And what's the difference between "blind" and "non-seeing"? Find out on this toxic new episode of ODD TRILOGIES!
