It’s the season premiere of Knockoffs and Alex & Kyle want to start off with a surprise! There is absolutely no chance that you have seen this movie so why not? This “withered and whiskered” movie is what every Knockoff wishes it could be.
Pittsburgh comedian and friend of the podcast Regina Connolly join Alex & Kyle to discuss the 1998 film “Fallen.” This movie is your classic “cops & demons” scenario, but don‘t worry - the trio spend a good amount of time talking about other movies.
It’s hard to care about anyone in this movie, but Alex & Kyle try anyway. In a world filled with killers, cucks, and creeps, the scariest thing may be all of the acoustic performances.
“The Grudge” is getting Knocked-Off this week. This movie poses three questions: 1. Is ‘grudge’ a noun or a verb? 2. What constitutes a ‘grudge’? 3. Is this movie ‘anti-woman’?
Alex & Kyle watched “Urban Legend” - a movie where all of the human characters are true monsters. No one in this movie is a good person and there is no reason why these old, old college students would ever be friends.
After a few weeks away Alex & Kyle start back up as if no time has passed at all. “Gothika” may have bored them at times but they found a few redeeming qualities.
Happy Holidays from Knockoffs! Alex & Kyle discuss what it truly means to be a good sister in this very dark and disgusting movie. (WARNING: Topics in this movie and podcast include violent crimes toward women and children.) (Please also note that we apologize for the sound quality of this episode - we were unaware at the time that our connection was bad - but our connection to the audience has never been stronger.)
There is nothing good about “The Good Son” - he’s a rotten little guy! Imagine that little jerk from “Home Alone” but somehow more homicidal and you've got this movie. You'll be on the edge of your seat... waiting for the movie to end.

Each week Alex & Kyle discuss a (classic?) movie and do their best to focus on its shortcomings. Horror movies, thrillers, teens-in-the-woods… Anything goes, as long as someone gets knocked off.
