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

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!!

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!!

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.

We’ve dealt with all kinds of franchise highs and lows, but when a film series only has two parts, any dip can feel like falling off a cliff.
