Description

*You know our philosophy by now: podcast a good time, all the time! That’s why we’re converting this episode of Kill The Rock Star into a 40th-anniversary celebration of one of our favorite death-filled comedies of all time, THIS IS SPINAL TAP!! Here to help us go to 11 is Returning Champion Becky Wilson!! We’re giving the Tap the full Kill By Kill treatment, breaking down every character’s green skeleton, foil-covered cucumber, Saucy Jack dreams, and ability to get 17 people into a single King Leisure bed!! We go deep into how this seminal mockumentary shaped our sense of humor, the difference between stupid and clever, the Fluffkin and Fleckman effect, and briefly recount the time we were taken to dinner by a self-described “serial killer.” All this, plus the most explosive Choose Your Own Deathventure of all time, so make sure to put Kill By Kill first and “Puppet Show” second as soon as this hits your podcast feed people!!

In each episode, Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe unpack all the gory details of horror cinema's least discussed topic: the characters. From Friday the 13th to Nightmare on Elm Street and beyond, our mission is to detail each hack, slash, and decapitation in the hopes that a victim's untimely end is just the beginning of the jokes we can make about them.
