Happy Birthday To Me vol 1 (w/ Anya Stanley) redux
Light the candles and cut the cake! If you made a wish that Kill By Kill return to the classics, then it’s about to come true! On this week’s bonus episode, Gena & Patrick are unpacking all the gory details of 1981’s Happy Birthday To Me with the help of writer-at-large for birthmoviesdeath & Fangoria, Anya Stanley!! We ask big questions, like “Is this French Motocross perv a vampire?” and “Why does this character store her gardening shears inside of a mini-coffin?” We also tackle the very idea of over-stitched underwear, debate whether Genesis is appropriate bathing music, and consider the possibility that Glenn Ford is rocking a “coke nail” to pair with his Disco medallion. All this, and we unwrap a surprising edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! So join us once again for a little Canuxploitation -the gift that keeps on giving!!

IT Chapter 1 redux
When you think about what you’ll find in your local sewer system, what comes to mind? Sure, you’ll see loose tires and teenage mutant ninja turtles - but interdimensional murder clowns? That’s right, we’re revisiting Derry, Maine, and our original reaction to the first IT film from 2017!! Here to add to our little Loser’s Club is Returning Champion, Phil Gonzales (It's Del Toro Time podcast)! This episode was recorded mere hours after our first viewing of the film, so you’re getting our immediate reactions where we discuss which character is destined to rule the Orlando Boy Band scene, whether IT should actually be considered horror, what circle of hell is reserved for ex-teen movie critics, and a whimsical edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Check it out!!

I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)
Well… someone’s getting the hook for this one. Be warned: it’s spoilers from minute one as we once again don our 4th of July finest to get mixed up in a mystery so underwhelming even the Scooby Gang won’t spare a net or a beatnik stoner to help out. That’s right, we’re recalling our recent viewing of 2025’s rebootiquel, I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, because you demanded it!! Folks, forget our quibbles with the original film because this reimagining is total fish bait. Along the way, we talk about evil civic planning, memorial tee-shirt ethics, mandatory character innocence, kink-shaming strolls, secret boyfriends, shirt allergies, dog complaints, middle-aged stabbing remorse, and a hook-filled edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Be there on Dead Man's Curve or be square, people!!
