Video Scripts: Franchise Documentaries – Lethal Weapon and Texas Chainsaw Massacre


Cody shares a couple franchise documentaries he contributed to.


I have been writing news articles and film reviews for ArrowintheHead.com for several years, and for the last couple years I have also been writing scripts for videos that are released through the site's YouTube channel JoBlo Horror Originals. Recently I started writing video scripts for the JoBlo Originals YouTube channel as well. I have previously shared the videos I wrote that covered

- P2, Lethal Weapon 2, and Frozen (2010)

- Lethal Weapon 3, The Blob (1988), and Lethal Weapon 4

This time, I have something a bit different to share. By writing about the four Lethal Weapon movies for four separate videos, I had basically written an 80 minute documentary on that film franchise. And as it turns out, the higher-ups decided that those four videos should be cut together as a feature length documentary. A very cool decision, as far as I'm concerned. Here's the result: 

Over on the horror side of things, it was also decided that videos on the first four movies in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise should be cut together. I did not write the scripts for the videos on the first three, but I did write the script for the video on part 4, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation, that is included in this documentary. You can watch it here:  

More video scripts have been written, so another batch of videos will be shared here on Life Between Frames eventually. In the meantime, keep an eye on JoBlo Horror Originals and JoBlo Originals!
