Welcome… to Kill By Kill’s TV Terrors! Again!! A ghost in the machine has caused some disruptions to our feed in anticipation of spooky season, so we're getting "da crazy" for Dafoe as we discuss one of Willam's first major acting roles in an episode of HBO's "Hitchcock but with boobs" anthology THE HITCHHIKER!! In this episode, "Ghostwriter," Dafoe plays a writer who hatches a needlessly complicated, extremely stupid plan to fake his own death, and he is shockingly terrible at it. Ultimate 80s DILF Barry Bostwick is here as well, wearing some of the boxiest suits money can buy!! You kids with your OnlyFans and your RedTube don't know how good you have it as The Hitchhiker was the closest thing a lot of us 80s kids had to p0rn - as demonstrated by this episode's tedious yet topless hot tub scene!! All this, plus morning sax solos, single-page newspapers, secret ghosts, and we witness one of the worst ways to escape the police ever recorded, and so much more!! Next week, we'll be back to wrap up our coverage of the Final Destination franchise!!
