Ho-Ho-Hold up!! Hang the holly on that haunted house as we attempt to flip Amityville II: The Possession with the help of our pal, Megan Dooley. That's right, it's Amityville For The Holidays time!!

Haunted. Cursed. Malevolent. Where does one even begin when it comes to the Stanley Kubrick adaptation of the Stephen King novel THE SHINING? This week on Kill By Kill, we’re exploring the impact of this totemic film on horror and cinema, and the very conflict between creatives behind it. Here to help us search these endless hallways for clues is writer (Deathbed: Horror Stories by Comedy Writers) and comedian Ritch Duncan!! Along the way, we dig into the origins of the King novel, how he bared his soul about his private parenting fears, and his complex reactions to a film that sets aside those literary intentions for a specifically crafted cinematic experience!! All this, plus Copyright Killers, trash-talking screenwriters, bad slashers, butt scares, Looney Tunes escapes, bad snackers, the many, many pop culture references to The Shining, and an all-work-and-no-play edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!

Due to the bizarre nature of this podcast, we hope you put down any sharp food utensils before enjoying Vol. 2 of our re-release bonus episode this week, discussing Happy Birthday To Me (1981)!! Here to help us unwrap this unhinged motion picture is Kill By Kill artist-in-residence and Returning Champion, Josh Hollis (Predict-O-Cast & Butterfly Kisses). We dig into it all, like whether shish kabob can ever truly be considered a midnight snack, confront the idea that we have a legit murderous Mrs. Doubtfire sitch happening here, call into question the standard operating procedures of this town’s drawbridge personnel, and take a quick detour to the Penguin’s evil lair. Plus, the secret powers of Dr. David’s disco medallion are revealed, decide who is on the bottom of the Top 10’s Penis Tottempole, and we make a wish during Choose Your Own Deathventure!

Here to help us explore the Jigsaw Industrial Complex is writer (Vulture, BuzzFeed, and more), podcaster (Chasing Amy Adams), and real Saw fan Louis Peitzman!!
