The Return of the Living Dead (OTDCU Ranking)

About this podcast

This show is focused on discussing and ranking movie series, to determine which ones are the best! Currently, series 3 covers the Alien and Predator connected universe. Previously, the MCU movies were covered in Series 1. We also have franchise-adjacent coverage in series 2 & 4! We even throw in some video game ranking from time to time.
Come for the rankings, stay for the banter!
