Representations of neurodivergency in film have a long and frequently frustrating history. However, it's only relatively recently that calls for better portrayals and more involvement for neurodiverse people in front of and behind the camera have gained traction. In this episode, we take a look at how a variety of films have attempted to tackle neurodiverse characters, from the good to the misguided to the actively harmful.

Double double toil and trouble. That's right, this week we're diving into the world of spooks and scares.. but that's it. No real blood, gore or terror. Instead we're going to follow the breadcrumbs of Halloween-appropriate horror aimed at younger audiences that lead you deeper into the woods of full-blown adult horror films.

Movies often need antagonists, and bullying is (sadly) an almost universal experience, so it's no surprise that there's a lot to talk about here, from the classic tropes to more contemporary approaches, as well as some of our own history on both sides of the bullying divide.

Bad films, bad films, watcha gonna do? Watcha gonna do when we sequelise you? ....or something to that effect. This week, thanks to a patreon vote, we will be discussing police representation in film. The evolution from a point of mockery to pantheons of justice, the stories of lone cops against a corrupt system, and the intense political baggage that comes along for the ride. So without further ado, you have the right to remain silent.. while listening to our podcast. Check out our various...

Here in the real world our leaders let us down all the time. In politics, sports, work-life. But film offers us a cleaner narrative and a host of leaders to aspire to, or outright avoid. So we're once again leading the way to talk about cinema's relationship with and creation of fictional leaders.

It's about time we buy a caravan, grab a shooter and tackle another sequel we'd like to see. This time, it's 2000's Snatch! So, each Sequeliser will take it in turn to pitch a potential sequel to the cockney classic. To say these pitches are quite different is an understatement!

It's the season finale of Requelisers so we're going BIG. We're fixing 1976's remake of the 1933 classic King Kong. Yes, it's the one with Jeff Bridges & Jessica Lange. Yes, it's uncomfortably horny.

Oompa loompa doompety doo, we've got a rubbish remake for you. Oompa loompa doompety dee, it's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. What do you get when Tim Burton remakes? Johnny Depp plus Michael Jackson deep fake. What is he at when he's talking like that? Why's he such an annoying t**t? We can't stand this crap remake.

When we talk about epic cinema, it doesn't get more epic than Ben-Hur. So who in their right mind would try and top it? Well in 2016 that's exactly what MGM decided to do. Suffice it to say, that didn't work. So we thought we'd take a stab at it. And.. you honestly have no idea where we've taken the Ben-Hur tale.

Fasten your seatbelt and rev up your engine, we're taking a trip back to the 60s to take a look at The Love Bug, and then to the 90s for it's strange straight-to-TV remake/reboot/sequel.

Get your Illusion-O glasses ready and venture into a glass case of spectral emotions as we fix 2001's Thir13en Ghosts (yes, that is how they spelt it because it was the 2000s).

Do you like Clash Of The Titans? Like, really like it? Yeah, we're not so sure anyone does. Whether it's the 1981 original or the 2010 remake, they're both odd relics that take a pretty solid premise and fumble it in multiple ways. But don't worry, we're here to give it a fresh coat of paint with an upgraded remake. So fetch your clockwork owl, tame a flying horse and prepare to...RELEASE THE KRAKEN!

Wolverines! That's right, when Russia, or China.. or, I mean, North Korea plan on taking over the world, it's up to a handful of plucky school kids with the gumption to stand up and fight back.
