If you’re looking for one of the best viewing experiences of your life, we’ve got the movie for you! This week, we’re bringing you a vital, much-needed addition to the Child’s Play/Chucky canon: the 1996 Bollywood musical version entitled PAPI GUDIA! Here to help us nail the choreo are two Returning Champions from Inside the Idiot Box, Dennis Satterfield and Scot Burklin! Along the way, we ask why this possessed doll breathes so hard, conjure a Morning Zoo Crew out of the cast, explore the beauty of a mid-film dance number, and reconstruct the complicated romantic backstory between our lead characters. All this, plus giant actresses, Trog connections, great suspect drawings, decorative vests, Chani POV, sudden Prince syndrome, meet the new Voodoo Joe, and dance right into an all-new edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure. Folks, this may not be a title you know, but YOU NEED TO SEE IT!

People have a very strange idea of entertainment... and we qualify! That's right, we’re deep in the heart of Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives, and we're thrilled to bring on comedian Adam Peacock (seen on Netflix's I Think You Should Leave and the host of the My Neighbors Are Dead podcast) to talk about three minor characters with major issues. In this episode, we consider racist trail marker lesson plans, decide what to name our favorite alcoholic beverages, announce Jason Voorhees as the latest Harlem Globetrotter, and attempt to unpack two of the most insane costuming choices ever presented on film. Plus, we make terrible day camp plans for “Jeremy” and play a superb round of Choose Your Own Deathventure. Also, there’s a weird echo that floats around the audio at points. So don’t drop acid and listen to this episode. Or do it. I’m not your mother!!

Start… your… engines! That’s right, we’re back on the GRINDHOUSE beat for volume 2 as we strap ourselves down and feel the rush of 2007’s DEATH PROOF. Along the way, we delve into the complicated backstory of what motivated this project to take shape, compare how the two halves of the movie relate to one another, explore why QT can’t let go of his video store clerk character, and explore Tarantino’s competing slasher film attempts. All this, plus the Millennial Nasties decade, “pick me” characters, Kurt Russell worship, Austin dining guides, KNB group gore, and a pedal to the metal edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure. We ask that you download the entire episode, but all you’ll need is the edge!

Are you hungry… for a remixed episode of Kill By Kill Classic? Well, Patrick & Gena are back (along with the endlessly funny and talented Becky Wilson) to talk about Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives and the incredible team-building experience that is 80s paintball in the pine barrens! Along the way, we consider Jason Voorhees and his ultimate desire to smash the patriarchy, we try to determine how many holes one can have in their jeans before they cease to qualify as pants, then postulate who would make the hunkiest Jason: David Hasselhoff or Robert Urich, and finally, Patrick attempts to build his brand. It doesn’t go well. All that and a fiercely debated edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and you’ve got a rip-roaring good time that’s bound to build your confidence and boost sales! Maybe.

The floors are sticky, the popcorn is a little suspect, but the movies… they’re absolutely wild! This week on Kill By Kill, we’re looking at the first half of a deadly double feature: 2007’s PLANET TERROR. Along the way, we give a brief history of grindhouse film, wonder why every other woman is wearing the smallest shorts of all time, consider the medical efficacy of syringe launchers, and connect this structure of the film back to one of John Carpenter’s unmade films. All this, plus credible melting men, BBQ envy, cookie-dough dememberment, flight via grenade launcher, and the Crazy Babysitter Twins. Grab your favorite jar of oversized testicles and listen in today!

If you heard that Jason is dead... good, er bad news: Jason Lives!! That's right, on this redux episode of Kill By Kill, Gena and Patrick are joined by acclaimed filmmaker Rodney Ascher (Room 237, The Nightmare) to talk about TV’s Horshack, Ron Palillo, and his incredible performance as Alan Dawes. As Rodney points out, “A friend helps you move, a good friend helps you move a body… what kind of friend helps you dig up a body?” In addition, we discuss the power of lightning vs. supernatural lightning, we chase mid-80s suspender trends, openly wonder if Jason’s powers make him an X-Man, and finally, we attempt to pin a “double indemnity” style murder rap on the director. Why not? It’s fun! All that and we resurrect Choose Your Own Death-venture from the grave. It's a reanimated episode you should listen to immediately!

Let’s pick this up right where we left off! We’re back to get into all the onscreen supernatural details of PROM NIGHT III: THE LAST KISS with now-Returning Champions, Jarrod Hornbeck and Steve Guntli (Puppet Masters/Castle Freaks). Along the way, we debate why Hamilton High is so underattended, consider which “death by football” we’d prefer, ponder sex-ed nightmares, and explore the possibility of recasting Tim Robinson in the lead role here. All this, plus mop-water booze, penis wigs, mold-press protagonists, proving John Derek wrong, “beavers,” and an all-province edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!

You never forget your first… but some people have forgotten there was a third Prom Night movie! That’s right, for the first of two new episodes this week, we’re happy that Puppet Masters/Castle Freaks’ Jarrod Hornbeck and Steve Guntli have accepted our promposal to discuss how PROM NIGHT III: THE LAST KISS made it to the silver screen. Or at least, video store shelves. Along the way, we explore our feelings about the Prom Night franchise, discuss how Ron Oliver resurrected our favorite Queen, dig into why Lisa Shrage got left behind, and uncover the behind-the-scenes turmoil that ended up giving a producer a co-director credit. All this, plus Twin Peaks casting, Silk Stalkings fandom, USA Up All Night worship, MADtv connections, Sue Snell’s mom, and much, much more! Don’t worry, volume 2 arrives this Friday, so you’ll always get The Last Kiss from us!

Summer vacation is in full swing, and we’ve got the perfect episode to help you beat the heat as we light the fires and kick the tires of 1981’s THE BURNING! Along the way, we ask why on earth this movie would have a cult following, discuss why so many doctors want to convince Cropsy to let the past go, debate what the killer’s plan often boils down to “lie down in a canoe for hours,” and examine how the entire movie manages to evoke the mindset of its convicted criminal’s writer/producer. All this, plus spliced-in lightning, dressing like Darkman, fire tumbles, constant leering, inexplicable rope, elder interning, two-pump chumps, and a garden shear-heavy edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! Float downriver with us and check it out.

All this and a shocking edition of Choose Your Own Death-venture that’s bound to hit you like a neon lightning bolt. If you need to know the answer to “How did you blow it?” this episode is for you!
