Kill By Kill: Talking Horror Characters One Death At A Time

Friday The 13th Part 6 vol 1 (w/ Rodney Ascher)

Episode Summary

Thank Jason it’s Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives! On this episode of Kill By Kill, Gena & Patrick are joined by acclaimed filmmaker Rodney Ascher (Room 237, The Nightmare) to talk about TV’s Horshack, Ron Palillo, and his incredible performance as Alan Dawes. As Rodney points out, “A friend helps you move, a good friend helps you move a body… what kind of friend helps you dig up a body?” In addition, we discuss the power of lightning vs. supernatural lightning, we chase mid-80s suspender trends, openly wonder if Jason’s powers make him an X-Man, and finally, we attempt to pin a “double indemnity” style murder rap on the director. Why not? It’s fun! All that and we resurrect Choose Your Own Death-venture from the grave. Celebrate Jason’s re-birth-day with us today, won’t you?
