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

Latest Episodes:

The Unseen (w/ Phil Nobile Jr.) Mar 25, 2022

Show notes

Witness the horror that only Central California can conjure as we hit Solvang for 1980’s THE UNSEEN with EIC of FANGORIA & Returning Champion, Phil Nobile Jr.! That’s right, we dig into Phil’s criminal connection to the film, wonder how something so wrong can turn out so right, visit an all-new Barn of Doom, discover the formula to getting away with the perfect crime and exploring the “feminist” filmmaking of Danny “women look at themselves naked all the time” Steinmann. All this, plus a grating version of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and we introduce the world to our favorite new character, Dirty Peanut! Head north up the 101 with us for a getaway you can’t get away from today!!

KBK After Dark - Fatal Attraction (1987) Mar 18, 2022

Show notes

This may be the season finale of Kill By Kill: After Dark, but we won’t just be ignored, Dan!! That’s why we’re going out with a bang and talking 1987’s blockbuster hit, FATAL ATTRACTION! Sure, we talk deflated turtlenecks, hair width, and Gene Siskel being wrong out the gate, but mostly 46+ minutes of reading Michael Douglas’ character the Riot Act. You heard me, Dan! Plus, we play a brand new game called Choose Your Own Coaster-venture and shower Glenn Close with love, praise, and the flowers she deserves. Join us for a Bunny Boil today!!

He Knows You're Alone (w/ Vincent Bec) Mar 11, 2022

Show notes

People, I don’t want to frighten you but… HE KNOWS YOU’RE ALONE. Also, that’s the name of the movie we’re talking about on this episode with writer Vincent Bec, who brings an academic viewpoint to this alternately progressive and regressive slasher flick. Along the way, we explore Sawsville bathroom decor, examine our killer’s magic left hand, debate a “shit sandwich vs. broken glass sandwich” of our romantic rivals, and celebrate the welcome return #GetBunked! All this, plus a very stabby Choose Your Own Deathventure, plus we pit severed heads against one another for the prize of Worst Head Prop in Kill By Kill history. It’s a proposal you simply can’t refuse! Say yes to the mess!!

KBK After Dark - Traces of Red (1992) Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

Oh, how the tables have turned! After the “barely erotic” “not a thriller” A Night in Heaven, Patrick plucks out a film just as inessential: 1992’s TRACES OF RED starring James “sex machine” Belushi, Lorraine Bracco’s Melanie Griffith impression, and Florida plays itself. Along the way, we explore how the film mistreats its characters and the audience, the trouble with seducing Tony Goldwyn, forced Crazy Ralph peeping, and we play a simple game of: make love to the car from TITANE or Jim/James Belushi!! Plus, Gena reveals a forbidden secret about “the ladies” and Patrick begins a scheduling sesh! Hear how the sausage is made on this week’s Kill By Kill: After Dark!!

Final Destination vol 2 (w/ Sharai Bohannon) Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

If you’re looking for more FINAL DESTINATION talk, we’ve got just the ticket! That’s right, we’re flying high for vol. 2 of Death’s Design, and here to help us break it all down is Dread Central writer and pod co-host of Nightmare on Fierce Street and Bleary Massacre, Sharai Bohannon!! Along the way, we discuss crazy mom strength, decide our Final Destination meals, make the case against Ali Larter, light various trails of vodka in the kitchen, and of course, caramelize blood. All this, plus a fateful edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and we wonder aloud what connects And Just Like That… to Final Destination. Carrie Bradshaw, if you know the answer, please call into this podcast episode - we’d LOVE to chat!

KBK Patreon Unlocked! CHiPs S6 Rock Devil Rock Feb 18, 2022

Show notes

Due to circumstances beyond our control, this week’s episode is calling in for emergency help. And there’s no one better equipped than two Highway Patrol officers advising trick-or-treaters in the valley. That’s right, we’re dipping into the Patreon vault to expose you to CHiPs! Even better, it’s a lackluster last season episode featuring Ralph Mouth slathered in KISS make-up, Elvira forced to wear a modesty panel, devil-possessed car radios, summoning demons via backward playing records, loose corn cobs, bird hauntings… and a character named Hot Dog. We’re not joking. We wish we were.

Final Destination vol 1 (w/ Galen Howard) Feb 11, 2022

Show notes

Death refuses to take a holiday as we depart for our second franchise of season 4, 1999’s FINAL DESTINATION! Onboard for this episode is actor Galen Howard (Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Book of Boba Fett)!! Put your tray tables up as we dig into the movie’s dynamic slasher mythos expansion, shudder in fear at the ghost of Rube Goldberg, debate traveling overseas in jorts, wonder who is reading Penthouse for the articles, and have a real conversation with Mike Flanagan that he will never hear. All that and we punch our ticket for Choose Your Own Deathventure, plus we explore the deep connection between this film and Friday the 13th Part 3. Buckle up, people!!

KBK After Dark - A Night In Heaven (1983) Feb 04, 2022

Show notes

Rockets rise, and rockets fall as we explode over 1983's A NIGHT IN HEAVEN - a romantic drama that's neither romantic nor a drama... discuss! We try to figure out exactly what this film is attempting to do while also delving into subjects like erotic recumbent biking, John G. Avildsen's obsession with filming every entrance and exit, Leslie Ann Warren going cross-eyed, worship at the altar of Wendy Jo Sperber, wonder why anyone would strip to Dolly's 9-to-5, and discuss the worst husband character yet! All this, plus we play Choose Your Own Stripping Hype-Man and delve into the sexual depravity in Orlando.

This episode of Kill By Kill is brought to you by the underwater horror film THE DEEP HOUSE - now available on Digital and On-Demand! When a young couple sets out to explore a house at the bottom of a lake, they discover a sinister presence. Can they escape the underwater house of horrors before it's too late? THE DEEP HOUSE is unrated, from Paramount Pictures.

Alien (w/ Mitch Silpa) Jan 28, 2022

Show notes

Thank Ripley it’s Friday. We’re launching into Season 4 by talking about one of the greatest sci-fi horror films of all time, ALIEN!! And here to help her get from face-hugger to xenomorph is actor and comedian extraordinaire Mitch Silpa! Along the way, we talk about alien virgins, open up about the Bad Milk Blood Robot, grocery PTSD, and the exceptional amount of “angry dad” energy on the Nostromo. All this, plus the first Choose Your Own Deathventure of the season, and debate whether Ripley’s panties fall under the definition of “procedural underwear.” It’s a chest-burster of fun coming your way on Kill By Kill!!

Scream (2022) Jan 21, 2022

Show notes

It’s time to say “Goodbye, Sidney” and end Season 3 on a high note as we discuss the new release SCREAM (2022)! Along the way, we talk Dewey catharsis, the power of Gale Weathers, wonder about the unseen hunk that is Mr. Meeks, consider the inherent likability of Jack Quaid, lavash well-earned praise for Jasmin Savoy Brown, debate whether any character is asked to “consider my penis,” and deliver one needed point of criticism: where is the News Van violence?! All this, plus a stab-filled edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and we openly wonder what an unhinged sexual bacchanal Woodsboro, CA, was in the mid-90s.
