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

In each episode, Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe unpack all the gory details of horror cinema's least discussed topic: the characters. From Friday the 13th to the Evil Dead franchise and beyond, our mission is to detail each hack, slash, and decapitation in the hopes that a victim's untimely end is just the beginning of the jokes we can make about them.

    The Hunt (w/ Clarke Wolfe)

    Welcome to The Manor, everyone! It’s time to talk about the most dismissively talked about movie of 2019/2020 - THE HUNT!! Here to help ungag us on the subject and discover what’s really going on is actor/filmmaker Clarke Wolfe (Malum, A Shining Example)! Along the way, we dig into the semi-cursed nature of the film’s development and release, worship at the alter of Betty Gilpin, unpack the film’s warped political spectrum and avoidance of class warfare!! All this, plus dueling Raaaandys, social media rage activators, Barry Keoghan’s career post-Sabrena, and export a new edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! The rumors are true - this is the first Kill By Kill of 2025!!

  2. Black Christmas (w/ Scout Tafoya)

    Black Christmas (w/ Scout Tafoya)

    Do you believe in Black Christmas miracles? We sure do!! This episode was a twisted, mangled mess akin to a dirty phone call involving Billy and Agnes - but the Grinch who encoded our audio incorrectly grew an enlarged heart (he should get that checked out), and our blood-drenched holidays were saved! With no further ado, we present our in-depth conversation about the seminal photo-slasher classic, BLACK CHRISTMAS, for its 50th anniversary with our guest, author, and video essayist, Scout Tafoya!! What else does Santa have in his magic bag? Synthesizer psychos, Bravo network horror activators, Steve Martin: Slasher Fan, and we dig into why a half-century-old film can still be so ahead of its time!! All this, plus which character in the film is a Drinkenstein, Patrick defends Porky’s 2 for some reason, Gena defines the “It’s Miller Time” ending, and we give you the gift of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!

  3. Maximum Overdrive (1986)

    Maximum Overdrive (1986)

    "Wait... this isn't the Black Christmas episode I was promised," you're saying to yourself and yelling at passersby. Well, when you're right, you're right! Due to an otherworldly technical audio snafu, that nearly two-hour episode cannot be presented today. But we still wanted to get you, our loyal listener, something. And so we present a hilarious Patreon bonus episode we think you'll love: 1986's MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!! It's certainly something! You love Uncle Steve, we LOVE Uncle Steve - but we can all agree that Stephen King's talents lie primarily on the page, and this bombastic, AC/DC-filled smash-up is proof. Along the way, we discuss films you can smell, death by watermelon, onscreen kid murder, crediting cocaine as the director, and trying desperately - and failing - to understand the rules here!! All that, plus slanderous ATMs, high-volume screeching, too much sweat, and a diesel-powered edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! The Beam of this universe to the Dark Tower may be broken here, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun as the world goes to hell. Happy Holidays, everybody!!

    The New Kids (1985)

    It’s Friday the 13th, people!! And that could only mean one thing: an under-seen teen bully flick from Sean S. Cunningham? That’s right, we’ve hit the bottom of the barrel for Jason-related content and have now slid into Mr. Cunningham’s lesser efforts, 1985’s Army brats vs. bully flick, THE NEW KIDS! Along the way, we talk about parentless towns, multiple sleepwalking performances, a surprisingly wet microfiche scene, and one of the cinema’s least memorable “Grand Opening/Grand Closing” performances!! All this, plus a gold star teen bedroom set decoration, witness someone sexually harassing their child, consider the titular fanatic, shake with fear at a goose scare, and end with a jolting edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! If you don’t listen to this episode, you’ll be sorry. Actually, you’ll be fine, but we’d love for you to listen anyway.

  5. Interview With the Vampire (w/ Gregory Lay)

    Interview With the Vampire (w/ Gregory Lay)

    Sit down, and I’ll tell you a tale about a sad guy who gets bit by another guy, but it doesn’t make him happy - just an undead hottie drinking rat juice until the second guy bites a little girl to solve their relationship problems and… you know, I should let the 1994 Anne Rice adaption INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE fill in the details!! That’s right, we’re celebrating this monumental gothic blockbuster for its 30th anniversary with the help of writer/actor Gregory Lay (Greg in LA)!! Along the way, we explore the nearly 20 years it took to get Interview on bookshelves, through the studio system, and onto the big screen, learn what Cher would have done with the Louie role, discover why Brad Pitt called the shoot, “Six months in f#^%ing darkness, and worship at the alters of Antonio Banderas and Kirsten Dunst!! All this, plus we ask who squeezes the best rats in town, think about what makes a good eternal life partner, give Neil Jordan his props, solve some problems with fire, and sink our teeth into the immortal game of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!

    Sawsgiving vol. 5 (w/ Elissa Wagner)

    Do you want to play a game? Too bad! You don’t get games this time!! That’s right, for this year’s Sawsgiving, as we try to enjoy the bad cop vs. worse cop sidequel, SPIRAL: FROM THE BOOK OF SAW with the help of Returning Champion and Pillow Fright host Elissa Wagner!! Along the way, we discuss skinning randos, Jån Kramer - the Swedish Jigsaw, character chin beards, edgy corporate video VO, stair-based action sequences, the revenge of Amanda’s bad wig, and ego-stroking Chris Rock!! All this, plus we examine the movie’s tortured development process, more vats of sleep juice, debate what holidays are celebrated in Sawsville, USA Canada, and try to avoid the worst traps of any Saw flick during Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Catch all the Big Wong Energy of this year’s Sawsgiving for yourself!!

    Cuckoo (2024)

    We’ve heard the call, and it’s coming from inside our idyllic Bavarian Alps resort! That’s right, we’re checking in on another recent Neon release, the daffy and disturbing CUCKOO!! Don’t worry - we’ve got a non-spoiler reaction upfront before we pipe in with our in-depth reactions to the movie, including how we like to “Porky Pig-it” in the hotel lobby, the “horror” of blended families, appreciate Jazz flute control, consider Dan Stevens’ best Weird Little Guy roles, and make a few Crimson Rivers comparisons!! All this, plus we worship at the alter of Hunter Schaffer, we open up about some bad hotel stays, two good sisters, nominate terrible people we’d like to see get juiced like an orange in outer space and bring you a tuneful edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Make a nest and listen to an all-new Kill By Kill today!!

  8. Heretic (w/ Megan Sunday)

    Heretic (w/ Megan Sunday)

    Have you heard about the plan our Heavenly Father has for us? It’s that we all rush to the theater and enter the debate from hell with Hugh Grant as we talk bad basements, fake candle smells, and HERETIC with friend of the pod, Megan Sunday!! We have all sorts of literature and testimony to share about Patrick’s Mormon missionary past, that one Uncle we all know, patriarchal gab sessions, and the Mr. Reed and Jigsaw team-up we demand become reality!! All this, plus a heaven-sent edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and a lot of personal recollections and revelations about our various religious upbringings, our surprisingly emotional reactions to the film itself, and we’ve got a special message you’ve got to hear for yourself!!  CW: we are discussing our personal experiences with religion, so if that’s not something you want to hear, this may not be the episode for you.
