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

It all comes crashing down this week as we get out of our human suit and into our creepy bunny suit to dig into 2001’s cult classic, DONNIE DARKO!! Along the way, we explore the movie’s many connections to Stephen King’s multiverse, debate whether this collapsed reality is all Grandma Death’s fault, worship at the altar of Drew Barrymore again, and point out some vital Long Beach filming locations. All this, plus Langoliers vs Critters, Snakes on a Plane, stab air, say cellar door a bunch, and rewrite time to play a new edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! We’ll never question your commitment to Sparkle Motion again if you download and listen to this episode today!

Out of order? You're out of order!! Well, actually, it took us a while to rescue the original audio of all of our Final Chapter episodes, but it's better late than never as we dig into this remixed episode featuring network TV honcho Jen Titus! This week, we launch the new series CSI: Crystal Lake, learn what a Nurse With Benefits is, and finally consider the advantages of a “front banana pocket” vs. “summer medical kimono!!” All this, plus a medical-grade edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure for your listening pleasure! Enjoy “ignorance and a snack” today...

On your marks… get set… podcast!! That’s right, we’re being hunted down like the dogs we are as we discuss the 2025 remake of THE RUNNING MAN!! Along the way, we explore the overlapping themes of the Bachman books, unpack why this new version sings and goes flat, and consider the possibility that Glen Powell is just too good-looking. All this, plus Scott Farkas-alikes, mosquito hunting, Mick Fleetwood’s star power, weird bummers, The Legend of Chun-Li, YMCAs of the future, and so much more! It’s cameras up for chaos on an all-new Kill By Kill!!

We hate for it to go, but we love to listen to our redux coverage of Friday the 13th Part 5: A New Beginning leave. That's right, we're welcoming our pal Zach Powers (of The Revisionists podcast) into the BARN OF DOOM to talk about the last 20 body-dumping minutes and really ask the heard questions, like what type of Pokemon Jason is, consider where Part 5 to Mrs. Doubtfire connect as stories, dig into why this supposed NJ township has banned bras, and debate a Halfway House’s need for a mobile bed of spikes. All this, plus crotch stabbings, breathing corpses, "hallway handball," and an all-new, all-not-that-different edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! It's a tractor to the chest's worth of fun! Tell a friend about it. Or an enemy. We don’t care.

Listen up, buster! We’ve got a great episode for you, but it does contain undignified language. That’s right, we remain unhobbled as we discuss one of the best Stephen King adaptations of all time, 1990’s MISERY. Here to help drag us out of the snow and back into bed where we belong is one of the stars of the new horror film, OBSESSION, Cooper Tomlinson.  Along the way, we explore how the story went from page to screen, unpack the many cockadoodie layers of Annie Wilkes, consider the alternate versions of Paul Sheldon, and uncover the secret subgenre of the finished film. All this, plus popcorn rations, the horror/comedy connection, the Annie Industrial Complex of the internet, leaving behind what you no longer love, Francis Sternhagen appreciation, and a well-composed edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! Folks, believe us when we say we’re your biggest fan… if you listen to this all-new episode of Kill By Kill.
