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.

This film has everything: Shag-adelic Frankensteins, Billy Beer, sunken living rooms, Chekov's Phone Co., the Boogie Van code, improvised grab-ass, multiple tummy stabbings, slasher disco tracks, Greg's Dad, aka The Main Character of the movie, and a beachside Sheriff's office we'd all like to work at!! All this, an in-depth analysis of every nightgown worn in the film, and stomach-centric Choose Your Won Deathventure are all waiting for you!! Share this episode with someone you love. Even someone you'd love to embalm alive - we won't judge.

All this and the final Choose Your Own Deathventure of 2021, plus we ask a vital question: has any other serial killer in cinema history been motivated by how small his allowance from his wife is?

Come on over and stay a while. A long while. That’s right - we’re talking about one of the fall’s horror phenoms, BARBARIAN, on Kill By Kill!! And don’t worry, we go spoiler-free to start before we get deep into this remarkable flick. Along the way, we talk about the ABRs, why using your expectations against you is the ultimate flex, compare and contrast cinemas' many bad listeners, the convenience of pre-fab murder basements, and celebrate the connection between comedy and horror. All this, plus a smashing edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and find the film’s truest allegory: dating in 2022. Come for the night, stay forever with us, won’t you?

It's the episode the Grim Reaper did not want you to hear! That's right, Gena returns to the show after her medical emergency, and it's a story you must hear for yourself. Also, we watched the first season finale of Hannibal and stuff - but really, it's hard to separate the two. We discuss stalking elks, wet dreams, whether Hannibal's tears are real, why Jack is being such a hardass, and the building sexual chemistry between the entire cast of the show. It's an orgy of Hannibal worship and personal discovery!!
