Kill Streak

What do you think happens to you when YOU die? Hopefully, you come to us so we can joke around and watch horror movies together. But more likely, you'll end up in the clutches of the Tall Man! This week, we dive into the long-awaited sequel to Phantasm, with all the Gravers, Lurkers, gold sentinels, and forehead foreplay scenes you can handle! We've got some great behind the scenes stories and ple...

The BOOOOOOOYS get loose with this twisty-turny horror/sci-fi classic! Don Coscarelli's first foray into horror movies is a lot of things, but straightforward it ain't. It looks great, it sounds great, it oozes charm and creativity, and it's weird AF. What's not to love?  After much confusion and a false start, Mike takes on recap duties. It's thorough. Mike is a very thorough man. 

AND WE'VE COOOOME, TO THE END...OF...THE ROOOAD. That's Boyz II Men. Look it up zoomers. ANYWAYS, we've come to the end of the road on the Alien franchise and it's time to hand out some statues!! On this ep, we give out some coveted awards like: Best/Worst Lead and Supporting Actor; Worst Vacation Destination; Best Xenomorph Variant; and the Peter North Award for Android Gore!! Those and many more...

This week we cover the final (for now?!?!?!) entry in the Alien franchise, the "Alien" prequel/"Prometheus" sequel "Alien: Covenant." For all you android horndogs out there, you get double your Fassbender in this one. Plus some answers to the big questions about vases full of black goo but not so many answers about the big questions of life. Then after the flick, meet our newest end segment baby,...

Ok, let's get something clear right out of the gate: we know Noomi Rapace rhymes with "gloomy the boss" AND that it's Logan MARSHALL-Green, not Logan MICHAEL-Green. OK?! Don't @ us. Alright, glad we got that out of the way. This week on the pod, it's "Prometheus," which prompts some of life's big existential questions, like why in the hell would a biologist take his helmet off after 20 minutes on...

"France, we come from France!" Just like SNL's beloved "Coneheads," this week's feature serves up its extraterrestrials on a crunchy baguette with a side of creamy Brie cheese as acclaimed French director Jean-Pierre Jeunet takes the reins of the Alien franchise. We dive in with somewhat differing opinions on what works and what doesn't in this AGGRESSIVELY late 90's film written by famous Hollywo...

Tune in this week to hear our hot takes on one of the most infamous director vs. studio shitshows in all of horrordom, "Alien 3." Is this the worst Alien movie? Probably not! Is this the worst Fincher movie? The answer to that probably depends on your stomach for Brad Pitt as an old man baby hijinks! Is this a weird, fucked up, interesting to think and talk about movie? Definitely! After our break...

"This time, it's plural." With this unforgettable catchphrase, James Cameron and his collaborators gave birth to the archetypal action blockbuster, and paved the way forward for the highest grossing horror franchise of all time. Does "Aliens" still hold up 35 years later? Yes, duh, of course it does. Listen along with us and we take you behind the scenes of the biggest sci-fi/horror/action extrava...

"Alien." It's a noun. It's an adjective. It's horror. It's sci-fi. It's a cinematic masterpiece. And it's this week's movie on the ol' Kill Streak pod, baybeeee! This is one of the only seventeen or eighteen places to hear two unapologetic fanboys worship at the altar of Scott, Giger, and O'Bannon. Which could also be a really gnarly law firm, come to think of it. Coincidence? Only one way to find...

Alright, alright, alright. This week, we (Price and Eric aka Mick and Dick Ghoulie aka The Ghoulie Bros.) set our sights on the much derided "Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation." Is this movie a steaming pile of head cheese? There’s no way to know without hearing our very special opinions!! Then stay tuned for the final segment where we wrap up the series by doling out our superlatives a...

"Look at me, I'm Leatherface!" - Idle Hands , 1999 Twenty four years after the release of the iconic original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, New Line got their hands on the franchise license and decided to take a crack at turning power tool enthusiast Leatherface into the next Freddy Krueger. Did this gambit pay off with a slice of prime horror mayhem and a critical and box-office revival? Or did i...

This week we cover a sequel 12 years in the making...maybe another 12 years would've done the trick? This one was much-maligned at the time of its release, but recently has started to receive some praise. Does it deserve a reevaluation? Listen in and find out what we think. Then after our frank, hard-hitting discussion, we unveil a brand spanking new segment called "The Meta Critics," wherein we t...

It's gritty. It's gruesome. It's one of the all-time greats. This week, we fawn over "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre." We talk about what makes it so great, and why no one should make a movie like this again. Price also misidentifies the film as being "almost 40 years old" multiple times because he still wants to believe it's the aughts and he's in his 20s. Also, some great listener questions and co...

Our big January Drac-Off comes to a close this week with famed director Francis Ford Coppola's wild gothic romance of the early 90's. If you're not horny for Gary Oldman yet, you will be by the time you finish this movie. This one is a blast and we had a real fun time talking about it. But that's not all this jam-packed episode has to offer! We decided to plow right ahead and do our Drac-Off ranki...

THE JANUARY DRAC-OFF CONTINUES! Eric may be recovering from COVID-19, but that's not going to stop us from going deep on DRACULA (1979) aka The Cucking of Jonathan Harker! How does this steamy version stack up against the previous 3 entries? Grab the armrests of your chair and listen as these two naughty boys go to town on everything you hold ear. Plus they play a vampire-centric Chop Quiz. Make s...

Eric is sick! Today's episode is delayed. Pray for Mojo!

Round 2 of the January Drac-Off begins as we get introduced to the sexy, imposing British-ness of Hammer's "Horror of Dracula." It's 27 years later and this time, you know they're gonna show some fangs! Also in this episode, Eric tries a new, more aerodynamic approach to the recap section. Plus, Count Dooku battles Grand Moff Tarkin! Listen to the full episode to find out what other treasures this...

We jump into our January Drac-Off with the granddaddy of all the celluloid Draculas...Universal's 1931 classic (?) "Dracula" starring Bela Lugosi. You know it's famous, but the real question is, "is it good?" You know how to find out: listen to the pod!! We are podcasting children of the night, and oh what music we make! After the movie, we play a round of "Bela Lugosi's Dead," a segment that defi...

On this very special holiday episode, Finnish Santa Claus is here to decide who's naughty, who's nice, and who deserves a pickaxe to the head! Whatever you do, don't call him Krampus, because that's Central Europe, you uncultured yokel. Tune in to hear all about this fun little Nordic yarn, as well as an update on Eric's budding love affair with his catfisher. Then after the movie, we toss back a...

Gingerdead Man might be the perfect COVID series, because having to watch these movies is not dissimilar to having to suffer through the discomfort and offense of this year's pandemic. BUT! This episode was fun to record. Much more fun than the process of watching these movies. And stick around for after the movie, because we've got a...TWIST ENDING! Happy holidays, Kill Streakers!

The Gingerdead Man series is...still bad! But sometimes bad movies are the most fun to talk about. Is that the case with this week's episode? Only one way to find out: listen in! After the movie, we attempt to right some wrongs with some Staff Picks, where we run down some better options if you're looking for a horror movie about filmmaking.

Alright everybody, here at Kill Streak we're big enough to admit our mistakes, and listen, we fucked up. It turns out this isn't a holiday themed movie, AT ALL, and in fact it is barely a movie, period. "The Gingerdead Man" is in fact an exercise in doing the absolute bare minimum required to skate by. But that's not what we here at Kill Streak HQ are gonna do. No ma'am! We gave this episode our f...

On this special Turkey/Colonizers Day episode, we put a nice little bow on the Evil Dead franchise! Tune in first for a quick segment on the Starz series "Ash vs. Evil Dead." Then we dish out our customary franchise superlatives, including such hits as "Best Ash One-Liners" and "Most Satisfying Kills!" Then, of course, we rank the series in both our personal orders and the CANONICAL Kill Streak or...

This week on the pod, the Kill Streak boys are doling out some HOT takes! In this century, horror remakes are a dime a dozen but they're usually worth less than that. Does the Tapert/Raimi/Campbell produced remake/reboot of the Evil Dead series rise above its brethren? Or does this relentless gorefest belong in the depths of hell with the rest of its hot trash cousins? The only way to find out is...

What a wild one this is, Kill Streakers! This week we unpack the final installment of the original Evil Dead trilogy and answer some of the big questions on everyone's minds, starting with "who keeps packing up these movies?!" This was a beloved teen classic for us, so listen in to find out if it still holds up in the eyes of these jaded old men. Then after the movie, we do a little "Scored to Dea...
