Kill By Kill: Talking Horror Characters One Death At A Time
We Write GoodIn 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.

- Such an amazing show
I find myself nodding in agreement with the hosts throughout each episode. I appreciate their fan-oriented approach where they find ways to have a good time and laugh at the ridiculousness that sometimes makes it into movies while also just celebrating and enjoying horror films.

Podcast Addict56 months agofeelingsDrHope- A very special podcast
Every so often I look for a new movie related podcast. I keep not subscribing to them because I compare them to kill by kill, and they just don’t stack up.
Apple Podcasts5Mike WildingUnited States8 months ago - So glad I found this!
Ran into these folks in a Threads discussion about Skinamarink and had to hear their thoughts. This feels like hanging out with two old friends - smart and thoughtful and funny and good-spirited even when being critical. Thats a fast follow for me
Apple Podcasts5BaronSpeerzyUnited Statesa year ago - Great Podcast!
Patrick & Gena are so much fun to listen to. Funny & smart discussions of a wide variety of movies. I love when they discuss animal attack movies & KBK After Dark where they discuss Erotic Thrillers. The Episodes on Graveyard Shift & Color of Night are particular favorites! Highly Recommend!
