After nearly nine years of Kill By Kill, we sometimes ask ourselves why we still do it. The fame? The fortune? Perhaps it’s to find those beautiful, forgotten slasher gems of the 1980s? After this episode, the answer to all three questions is, “Not this week!” That’s right, we’re scraping the bottom of the low budget horror barrel as we take an extended peek at 1988’s HIDE AND GO SHRIEK with the help of two Returning Champions, from Inside the Idiot Box podcast, it’s Dennis Satterfield and Scot Burklin!! Sure, this movie isn’t that great, but it’s filled with elements we needed to discuss at length: illogical mannequins, perplexing bedroom decor, mystifying haircut reveals, sex in public sheets, and the most egregious electric wok cooking-utensil use ever caught on film!! All this, plus fedora creeps, one Frankenstein General Hospital, wigwam socks, a weeping George Lucas, Penguin Lust, jorts-based burlesque, a collection of the most baffling acting performances we’ve seen in a while, and of course, we shop for our demise during Choose Your Own Deathventure!! CW: The film sadly dips into a weird homophobic reveal at the end that we did not enjoy. Despite that, this conversation is hilarious and far more thoughtful than this cheap, tawdry, slasher flick that we rip to threads for nearly two hours. Please to enjoy!!
