The Lot is many things. A small town full of secrets. A place where evil can fester. And it’s a Stephen King property that has a few swings at the bat. Well, this week on Kill By Kill, we’re the ones swinging the bat! That’s right, we hate to do it, but we’re driving a stake right through the heart of this 2022… wait, 2023… hold on… 2024 remake of ‘SALEM’S LOT - and we’re not happy about it at all. Why does this movie feel like a speed run? Why does it refuse to show more than six people at a time? Why does Barlow look like the Space Vampire from that episode of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century? Folks, we’re doing everything in our power not to be “those fans,” but this motion picture keeps dragging us back in. Remember how we raged at the 2011 remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street? Well, it’s happening again. Make sure to listen til the end to hear about a couple of things we actually appreciate about the film and explain our many, many disappointments. We go in-depth with Uncle Steve’s original novel and try to parse exactly what went so terribly wrong with this new version. It’s a real journey. Don’t worry, we’re back to our chipper, fun lovin’ selves next week.

Have you ever dreamt of a better version of this podcast? We did, so we injected our format with Cronenberg’s The Fly, Street Trash, Re-animator, and… 2001: A Space Odyssey? That’s right - we’re ready to pump it up for the body horror flick of 2024: Coralie Fargeat’s audacious film, THE SUBSTANCE!! Along the way, we start spoiler-free before giving birth to a conversation covering an avalanche of butts, Hollywood Walk of Fame orientation, severe trypanophobia, Sudden Oatmeal Syndrome, and rank the worst men in this movie from worst to F That Guy!! All this, plus we worship at the alter of Demi Moore, describe all our very physical reactions to this film, and burst into a highly explosive edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! No matter what happens after you download this episode, remember that We Are One!!

In the Year of Darkness, 2024 - one podcast will be sent back to the past to discuss “ice cream scooping” waitresses to save humanity!! That’s right, pluck out those eyeballs and put in your earbuds as we open up shop on the James Cameron classic, THE TERMINATOR, for its 40th anniversary!! It’s a movie that’s probably been talked about by more people than any other film we’ve discussed on the show. Yet, so many mysteries remain, such as the source of Tech Noir’s citywide success and why Cyberdyne thought a robot with Arnold Schwarzenegger’s body type would fit in amongst starving human scavengers in the post-apocalypse? And those are hardly the only questions we’re asking here: what is the deal with Cameron’s obsession with extraneous limbs during sex scenes? At what point does the T-800 begin to stink so badly? Is this film the best representation of Bob’s Big Boy on film? All this, plus we wonder if “Dagwooding it” post-sex is something we can stomach, and we dine out on a jam-packed edition of Choose Your Deathventure!! The future may be unwritten, but don’t let this episode go undownloaded!!
