Kill By Kill: Talking Horror Characters One Death At A Time

With just fourteen more days ’til Halloween, you know it’s the right time to slap that Silver Shamrock mask on and win a big prize!! That’s right, we’re talking road beers, laser mouths, and 1982’s HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH!! No Michael Myers, no problem!! We’re digging into the details of how this film zagged on the Halloween formula, cemented Tom Atkin’s “f-boy” status, lost and gained entire creative teams, and rose from the box office ashes to claim cult classic status!! All this, plus dipsticking automotons, Stonehenge importation, improbable costuming, femobot swaps, Cheese-wiz cascades, disappointed ex-wives, white patent leather shoe enthusiasts, and the most Oogy-Boogy-filled edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure to date!! This episode is all-new, slightly anti-Irish, and entirely vermin-filled for your pleasure!! Check it out!!

The tide is high, but we are holding on as we revisit this classic episode discussing CREEPSHOW's Something To Tide You Over segment with filmmaker, YouTuber, and Returning Champion, Patrick H. Willems!! Along the way, we discuss the artistic merits of fart machines, consider AV snobbery, formulate some sand burial escape plans, fawn over Leslie Nielsen, and discover our secret connection to Ted Danson and the BJ & the Bear Universe! All this, plus as we expand Choose Your Own Deathventure to include near Creepshow-like deaths we encounter in real life, and we finally outline Patrick (Hamilton’s) policy on getting naked in front of house plants! It’s a very revealing episode of Kill By Kill you’ve got to soak up immediately!!

Don’t talk to strangers… but listen to a couple of them discuss the 2022 Joe Hill, Scott Derrickson, and C. Robert Cargill collab, THE BLACK PHONE!! That’s right, we delve into the juicy production backstory of the project, explore our real-life trauma related to serial killers, examine the Wile E. Coyote aspect of the film’s plot, and discuss a nothingburger controversy that took over the internet for a whole week when it was released. All this, plus switchblade pinball, middle-aged napping schedules, grades of shine, magic tricks, driving with balloons, and swift and sudden edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! It’s 10 pm - do you know where this podcast is? It should be on the internet. Please let us know if it’s not.

A revisit of CREEPSHOW just landed right in front of you!! That’s right, this week we crack open the second story of the film: The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill! Here to help us pry open this meteoric segment of the movie with us is another one of the gang from We Hate Movies and a Returning Champion to Kill By Kill: the one, the only, Eric Szyska!! Along the way, we discuss medical-grade cleavers, imagine a nu-metal Joker, we rank Stephen King’s onscreen performances, expose the special relationship between ghosts and aliens, tout the benefit of free-roaming skeletons, and debate the fair market value of broken space rocks. All this, plus we consider good luck Greedos, we pitch ways to rehabilitate the image of everyone’s least favorite fortified wine, and examine a version of Choose Your Own Deathventure that’s bound to grow on you!! It’s a truly evergreen edition of Kill By Kill awaits, dear listener - so check it out!!

In space, no one can hear you scream. On Earth, everyone can totally hear everyone else complain. That’s right, we hear to get an eyefull - including the tenticles - of FX’s ALIEN EARTH!! Along the way, we stumble over what the plural version of consciousness is, go deep into the “big feelings” of synthetic pre-tweens, argue with HR robots about our indentured servitude, and debate which hour of TV was the most successful overall!! All this, plus “James Spader” eyebrows, methodically unscientific methods, squirmy eye squids, corporate nation-states, meet “plantus,” lack of due diligence, and crash directly into a very unpleasant edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Just place your face directly over the egg… I mean podcatcher, and get ready for a fun surprise!!

How can we possibly cover Stephen King without talking about CREEPSHOW? Wait. We already did. Who cares?! Let’s raise these episodes from the grave and revisit this incredible George A. Romero and Stephen King collab! And here demanding his own slice of the Father’s Day segment is one of the gang from We Hate Movies and Returning Champion to Kill By Kill, Stephen Sajdak!! Along the way, we discuss undead reactions at the Oscar ceremonies, investigate the regenerative powers of Jim Beam, consider Ed Harris’ many disco faces, evaluate our Renaissance Fair tolerances, wonder what it would be like if everyone were waiting for you to die already, and we make it clear that none of us wants to incorporate a graveyard into our landscaping! All this, plus a zombie-powered edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and you’ve got a confection that even a corpse would want to dig into again!!

Light the fires and kick the tires, this episode of Kill By Kill is about to go up in flames as we ignite the debate of the pros and cons of 1984’s FIRESTARTER!! Along the way, we explore Stephen King’s “bad dad” novels, tell the tale of one ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream party, investigate what Dino De Laurentiis actually liked about King properties, and litigate the case of reality vs. casting George C. Scott in the role of a 30-something, indigenous Vietnam vet. All this, plus mind torpedos, Lot-6 key parties, Heather Locklear blinks, SyFy sequels, horse shields, bus station scams, plantation blazes, and a flamin’ hot edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Feel the heat with us, won’t you?

Also… watch The Fury (1978) already!!

They say that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger… but how many of those people have spent over nine years making a horror movie podcast with their friend? To celebrate 400 episodes of putting movie characters in the grave, we’re talking about a movie that gives us life: the ultimate 1980 musical disasterpiece, THE APPLE!! This movie has everything: bubbles on station wagons, plexiglass keytars, tooth jewels, 121 heartbeeps, softshoe clowns, molested landladies, actual vampires, subtle religious overtones, unsubtle disco orgasms, TV’s Eric LaSalle, vinyl riots, brutalist lobbies, dance belts, and SPEEEEEEDD!! It’s a celebration of life as we never knew it on this very special episode of Kill By Kill!!

Terror has no shape, but it does have a podcast!! That’s right, we’re returning to Arborville, CA, where Friday nights mean football, flirting, and a hungry mass of space gelatin looking to slurp all the meat it can off the bone in the fantastic 1988 remake of THE BLOB!! Here to help us make sense of all the space madness is director Colin Karwchuk!! [THE JESTER 2 is in theaters for special screenings Sept 15th and 16th via Fathom Events.] 

We break it all down, including The Blob’s origin story, why the films are plagued by old teens, mind-bending special make-up effects, worship at the altar of Shawnee Smith, the film’s secret King-coded story, and Frank Darabont and Chuck Russell’s main character problems. All this, plus talking ribbing pleasure, bouncy theme songs, bad dates, concussion protocols, worse wigs, stealth leads, the dangers of recycling, dangerous nostalgia, puffy shirts, Craig Wasson dissing, and a very gelatinous edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Crawl into every crevice with us for an all-new episode of Kill By Kill!!

Light the fuse, people!! That’s right, we’ve loaded up a 1980s Stephen King favorite for you as we sink our teeth into SILVER BULLET with the help of Certified Forgotten writer and podcaster, Matt Monagle!! We tear into the origin story of King’s and illustrator Bernie Wrightson’s Cycle of the Werewolf, make the wolf die so people cry with Dino De Laurentiis, we learn this film’s connection to Phantasm, and reconsider the cinematic presence of Gary Busey!! All this, plus Everett McGill’s angry Wikipedia picture, trainyard scuba breathing, fist-to-snout action, Tarker Mills’ front page news, kite flying addictions, weird screams, scattered bear traps, bald werewolves, and a Choose Your Own Deathventure lit by a full moon!! It’s a howling good time on an all-new episode of Kill By Kill!!
