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 the Evil Dead franchise 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.

Of course, couldn’t just talk movies. Had to insert their misinformed, divisive political opinion into their show. No one cares about your MSNBC fueled opinions
Low rent.
I love you guys!
The first podcast in a long time (maybe ever?!) to use the word “nonplussed” appropriately and accurately. Forever fan 😱🙀❤️
Great podcast. I heard about it from a guest appearance on some other podcast, I had to seek it out the second I heard the focus was on characters. It has quickly become one of my favourite horror podcasts.
