It's almost Christmas time, and Here in the "The Underworld" We have another episode to grace your ears right before Santa's thick ass squeezes down that chimney hole.
Bloody in your movie title should indicate gore on top of gore. We must admit, the gore was pleasurable and fulfilling. While we did hope for more "blood" and less story, weren't displeased with the kills given!
Some of the reviews accurately described this as a Santa Terminator movie. The only lore we would have enjoyed is how the Terminator Santa became Evil and alive? Was this the work of an evil Toymaker/inventor? Is the real Santa making a Terminator version of himself to delve out his new version of coal this year? Or just the simplicity of a robot Santa malfunctioning?
This movie wasn't marketed as a Hollywood blockbuster. But, the acting, camera shots, scenery, music, and overall vibe this movie exudes shows in almost every scene. Disregard the painful debates of music taste between Tori and Robbie. Or Tori's disdain for A Christmas Movie. Yes, you read that right, she hates feelin' warm and fuzzy during the holidays.
Kill the Chill Radio proudly recommends this for a watch, not just for the holidays, but at any time. Also in any capacity. I taped candy canes to my nipples while watching, it made for a more festive watch!

***I know the audio has some minor issues, but will have it back to normal in future episodes!
The Underworld Presents a new watch-along series(Audio for now) Kill The Chill Radio/Theatre. Austin and I have been talking about this for quite some time. Why not start with the second best holiday season of the year, Christmas?! We both decided blind reactions would be best for now, as it's an easy way to get us comfortable talking during a movie and still enjoyably experiencing the movie!
It's been some time since we've had quite a few Christmas horror films come out within a few years of each other, or a larger selection of films at that in Christmas horror. Justin Long and the marketing for this particular movie ultimately sold us both. The story and acting were a bit lackluster in our eyes, but still enjoyed some of the goofy moments, and kills witnessed. Justin Long steals the movie, alongside his dopey brother Buck with slapstick delivery and menacing energies.

"Idle Hands," a 1999 horror-comedy film directed by Rodman Flender, is a delightful departure from traditional horror movies. It stars Devon Sawa as Anton, a teenager whose life takes a bizarre turn when his right hand becomes possessed by an evil force, leading to a string of gruesome murders. What sets this film apart is its clever blend of horror and humor.
The plot revolves around Anton, a slacker with no ambition, whose life unravels as his malevolent hand embarks on a murder spree. The dark and absurd humor prevalent throughout the film is one of its defining features. "Idle Hands" doesn't take itself too seriously, embracing its own absurdity and delivering a polarizing experience. While some viewers may find the campy and unconventional nature of the film entertaining, others might be put off by its graphic violence and occasional juvenile humor.
Over the years, "Idle Hands" has garnered a cult following, primarily because of its unique fusion of horror and comedy. While it may not be considered a cinematic masterpiece, it provides a refreshing and unconventional take on the horror genre. Devon Sawa's portrayal of the unwitting and hapless Anton further contributes to the film's charm.
"Idle Hands" is a film that caters to those with a taste for dark humor and a willingness to embrace its absurdity. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's a worthwhile watch for those seeking a different and somewhat offbeat horror-comedy experience. -
Intruder" is a 1989 horror film directed by Scott Spiegel. The movie is notable for its intense and gory scenes. It's set in a supermarket and follows a group of employees who are stalked and brutally murdered by an unknown assailant after they close for the night. The film takes a simple premise and turns it into a thrilling, blood-soaked extravaganza.
The setting in a supermarket after hours is both unique and claustrophobic, setting the stage for a tense and bloody night. The practical effects in "Intruder" are nothing short of astonishing for its time, showcasing creative kills that have since become iconic in the horror genre.
The supermarket setting is ingeniously utilized, creating a sense of eerie isolation after hours. As the night unfolds, tension builds with each flickering fluorescent light, leading to a crescendo of gore. Sam Raimi's involvement in the special effects department ensures that each kill is a memorable work of gruesome art.
Character development takes a backseat to the relentless suspense and inventive brutality, and it works to the film's advantage. The enigmatic identity and motivations of the assailant keep you engaged, while the plot twists and turns add an extra layer of intrigue. Intruder is a hidden gem in the realm of '80s horror and slasher films.
What makes "Intruder" stand out is its commitment to practical effects, masterminded by none other than the legendary Sam Raimi and his crew. The kills have become iconic in the horror genre, and continue to influence horror filmmakers today.
While "Intruder" might not be a household name, its cult following is well-deserved. It's a visceral rollercoaster ride through a supermarket of horrors, offering a satisfying blend of suspense, creative kills, and practical effects.
If you're a devotee of '80s horror and can stomach a fair amount of gore, "Intruder" is a must-see that will leave an indelible mark on any horror enthusiast. Intruder is a must-watch that will leave an indelible mark on your horror-loving soul. -
"The Nest" (1988) takes an intriguing and somewhat unsettling approach to the horror genre by incorporating real cockroaches into its scenes. Directed by Terence H. Winkless, this film masterfully blurs the line between practical effects and genuine arthropod dread, resulting in a uniquely memorable cinematic experience.
One of the most distinctive features of "The Nest" is its decision to employ actual cockroaches in certain scenes. In an era when computer-generated imagery (CGI) was not readily available, the filmmakers opted for a more hands-on and authentic approach. They introduced these real, unsettling creatures into the narrative, turning them into nightmarish harbingers of terror.
The practical effects in "The Nest" extend beyond the use of real cockroaches. The film also showcases a host of grotesque and terrifying creatures that were meticulously crafted by the special effects team. These creatures, which share the screen with their real-life counterparts, contribute to the film's ability to create an atmosphere of visceral horror. The integration of practical effects and live insects allows the audience to feel an uncomfortable closeness to the horrors unfolding on screen.
"The Nest" wisely capitalizes on the inherent fear of cockroaches and multiplies it exponentially. Set in the seemingly tranquil island town of North Port, the film unleashes a nightmare scenario involving an invasive species of genetically modified cockroaches. This ecological horror element taps into our fears of nature's retaliation against human interference. It adds layers of depth to the narrative, transforming it into more than just a creature feature and instead an exploration of ecological anxieties.
While "The Nest" undoubtedly falls into the creature feature category, it does not neglect character development. The film introduces a cast of well-rounded and relatable characters who are thrust into the unimaginable. Their struggles, interpersonal dynamics, and desperate attempts to survive contribute emotional weight to the story, elevating it beyond mere monster mayhem.
"The Nest" is a hidden gem in the horror genre that daringly integrates real cockroaches and practical effects to deliver spine-tingling terror. By combining these elements with ecological horror themes and well-developed characters, it offers a unique and suspenseful viewing experience. If you're a fan of creature features that push the boundaries of practical effects and venture into the disturbing realm of real insects, "The Nest" is a cinematic journey worth embarking upon. -
Relying solely on CGI, explosions, and helicopter camera angles should never be the yardstick for measuring the quality of a film. "Return of the Living Dead 3" introduces a love story centered around inquisitive teenagers stumbling upon the top-secret work of a father.
The film's primary characters are indeed teenagers, and this is where it tends to falter. Their actions and decisions often leave much to be desired, and this aspect of the narrative can be a source of frustration for viewers. The inexperience and impulsivity of these characters can sometimes distract from the film's potential.
In a genre that often relies on suspense, tension, and the struggle for survival, the focus on teenage romance and curiosity can feel like an odd fit. It's a departure from the typical zombie movie formula, and whether this shift enhances or detracts from the overall viewing experience is likely to vary from person to person.
Yet, "Return of the Living Dead 3" defies the conventions of the zombie genre in a way that's both unsettling and intriguing. Under the direction of Brian Yuzna, this film ventures into uncharted territory, combining horror with an unexpected romantic twist, making it a standout entry in the annals of zombie cinema.
One of the most captivating aspects of this film is its reliance on practical effects. In an era when CGI was gaining traction, "Return of the Living Dead 3" pays homage to the glory days of practical effects. The grotesque and horrifying appearance of the zombies is achieved through masterful craftsmanship, creating a visceral experience that's not easily forgotten. The movie revels in its gore, presenting audiences with a series of unforgettable and stomach-churning sequences that will leave even the most seasoned horror fans in awe.
Yet, what truly sets this film apart is its audacious love story subplot. Amidst the chaos of a zombie apocalypse, the central characters, Curt and Julie, embark on a passionate and ultimately tragic romance. This unconventional narrative thread adds a layer of depth and complexity to the story, exploring themes of love and sacrifice in the face of overwhelming devastation and decay. While some viewers may find this departure from traditional zombie tropes refreshing and emotionally resonant, others may find it dissonant within the context of a horror film.
"Return of the Living Dead 3" may not have achieved the cult status of its predecessors in the series, but it deserves acknowledgment for its willingness to take bold risks within the well-established zombie genre. Whether you're drawn to its remarkable practical effects, intrigued by its blending of horror and romance, or simply seeking a departure from the typical zombie fare, this film offers a distinctive and memorable experience for fans of the undead. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of zombie narratives when they're approached with creativity and a willingness to break the mold. -
Today, we're immersing ourselves in the chaotic world of "Day of the Dead" (1985), the third chapter in George A. Romero's iconic zombie saga. Now, if you're expecting a highbrow cinematic masterpiece, well, you might want to adjust your expectations. This film is a rollercoaster ride through '80s zombie mayhem with an extra side of cheese.
Picture this: the world has plunged into post-apocalyptic chaos, overrun by the undead. Our story revolves around a ragtag group of survivors who have sought refuge in an underground bunker. But don't expect a harmonious community down there. Dr. Sarah Bowman, portrayed by Lori Cardille, is doing her best to maintain some semblance of order, but it's easier said than done.
Let's talk practical effects because, in the '80s, CGI was just a sci-fi dream. The mastermind behind the gruesome makeup and gallons of fake blood is none other than Tom Savini, the guru of gore. Limbs get torn apart, heads go rolling, and blood flows like a crimson river. Surprisingly, these practical effects have aged surprisingly well, given the film's age.
But what sets "Day of the Dead" apart is its exploration of the human psyche under extreme pressure. Imagine being trapped in a bunker with people you can't stand, surrounded by hungry zombies. It's like a psychological experiment with the undead as the unwitting subjects.
This film delves into themes of isolation, paranoia, and the struggle to maintain one's humanity when the world has gone to hell. It's like a psychological thriller with a generous serving of horror.
Now, let's be real here. "Day of the Dead" won't win any awards for acting or complex plotting. The characters can be over-the-top, and their decisions sometimes defy logic. But you know what? It's all part of the charm. This movie fully embraces its '80s roots and revels in its quirks.
If you're in the mood for an old-school zombie flick that's both gory and delightfully cheesy, "Day of the Dead" deserves a spot on your watchlist. -
Now, when it comes to Art the Clown, this guy makes Pennywise look like a cuddly chew toy, my parents poodle gnaws on. Seriously, he's got that silent, deadly vibe that'll haunt your nightmares for weeks. Kudos to the makeup and costume team, who've turned Art into the stuff of childhood fears and midnight terrors.
And let's not forget the kills, my friends, because Terrifier 2 went above my standards in a few kills. We're talking some that'll make you squirm in your seat, but at the same time make you chuckle, well maybe that's just me. Art's like the MacGyver of murder, always finding a way to turn everyday objects into instruments of mayhem. You've got to appreciate his resourcefulness, even if it's the kind that gives you the creeps.
Now, about the story... Well, it's a bit of a wild ride. But you know what? Sometimes a rollercoaster of chaos is just what the coroner DID NOT ORDER, especially when you've got Art the Clown causing chaos left and right. There's a lot of "But, why?" You'll be saying a few times throughout the film. It's likely they're doing this for obvious reasons, another sequel! Which, I don't see anyone having a problem with this, except my mother possibly.
Let's talk about those standout scenes. There's one particular scene that'll have you wincing, well some of us anyway. It involves a certain body part that's, well, creatively "unequipped" if you will. The best death on screen takes a deeper look at the callousness that Art wields, and it's not only gut-wrenching to watch, it's ironically hilarious to me.
Terrifier 2 isn't for everyone. If you're not a fan of over-the-top gore, in-your-face violence, or creepy clowns that make your skin crawl, this might not be your cup of tea. But if you're like me, nothing is off-limits when it comes to horror, so if you agree, then grab your popcorn, turn down the lights, and get ready for the madness. Just brace yourself – things get messy, like "how-did-they-even-get-away-with-that" kind of messy.
In the grand scheme of things, Terrifier 2 is a decent sequel that delivers on the promise of disgusting and brutal kills and a clown that'll haunt your dreams. It may not win any Academy Awards, but if you're craving a classic slasher with a hint of dark humor, it's worth giving it a go. Just remember – your perception of clowns may never be the same again.
-
Clowns have a peculiar and multifaceted historical background, encompassing roles as Jester's entertaining royalty to becoming popular figures in children's entertainment over the years. However, there have been instances where the clown image has been marred by those who adopted it for malicious purposes, tarnishing its innocent reputation. In this context, Art the Clown emerges as a significant character worth exploring.
Initially introduced in the 2013 film "All Hallows Eve," Art the Clown now takes center stage in "Terrifier," a full-fledged slasher movie that promises to be a disturbing and unsettling experience. The film delves into its antagonist's dark and twisted psyche, challenging conventional perceptions of clowns.
Although I tend to gravitate towards psychological thrillers with elements of horror and plot twists, I decided to give "Terrifier" a chance, albeit cautiously. Extreme gore and splatter films, which feature prominently in various "Iceberg challenge" lists, have never been my cup of tea due to their borderline realism and graphic nature.
To my surprise, "Terrifier" defied initial expectations. Despite starting like your typical B-movie with subpar acting and a weak plot, the film managed to rise above these limitations, primarily due to its expertly executed practical effects and well-crafted atmosphere of dread.
The film's Antagonist, Art the Clown, portrayed masterfully by David Howard Thornton, exudes an eerie and sinister presence that leaves an indelible mark on the audience. The kills are unapologetically brutal and detailed, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the practical effects team.
The narrative in "Terrifier" appears somewhat hazy at first, but it soon becomes apparent that this artistic choice is intentional. It offers us a glimpse into the mind of a disturbed individual who approaches his sadistic acts with a childlike sense of play. For Art, his victims are mere toys, and when they fail to amuse him, he callously terminates their existence, displaying no remorse and denying them the chance to beg for their lives.
Intriguingly, this animalistic and emotionless approach to violence adds an unconventional layer of depth to the film. It transcends the conventional slasher formula by exploring the psyche of the antagonist, providing a glimpse into the mind of a malevolent force in human form.
While "Terrifier" may not appeal to everyone, especially those with a weak stomach, it offers a unique and chilling experience for those who appreciate delving into the darker realms of horror. The film's ability to delve into the disturbing mentality of Art the Clown makes it an unsettling and captivating watch, serving as a grim reminder that clowns, with their painted smiles, can hide more sinister intentions beneath their facade.

Endings, whether for a TV series or a movie franchise, often leave both the audience and the creators/actors feeling unsatisfied. It's a heavy burden to "get it right," and we've seen the impact a true ending can have on a series. True fans never want something they love to end, even if they're bombarded with subpar sequels. A continuation may mean an endless stream of content, but it can also dilute the very essence that made us fall in love with the series in the first place. Not many series can boast having four movies in total in their continuity, let alone two. Personally, I believe a quadriology, or a four-part series, is often the ideal number to fully explore the story of a concept, regardless of the genre.
Jason has undoubtedly become a cornerstone for slasher films, and while he wasn't the first, he has certainly made his mark, with his teleporting, zombie-like presence. In our future episodes, we won't overlook the myriad of other sequels to come, but for now, we're bidding farewell to the original story being told. Fortunately, there are a few standalone movies to navigate through before we dive back into action with new and compelling protagonists facing even deadlier antagonists.
The choice to bring in Corey Feldman, an '80s child star, to seal the "Final Chapter" seemed obvious, but I can't help feeling conflicted about it. It's great to see him in yet another successful horror movie, but it also feels like a forced entry. If the plan wasn't to explore Tommy Jarvis as the new face of Friday the 13th, then why opt for a higher-level talent for the role? Throughout the film, Feldman's character didn't have much significance until the very end fight scene, and even then, the actions taken felt rather odd and puzzling.
I must admit, I'm quite disappointed with the choices made in "The Final Chapter," and more than anything, I'm left feeling perplexed. The few teases of Feldman in future movies as a "continuation" appear to be a cop-out instead of taking a bold leap into uncharted territory within the Friday the 13th Universe. We've concluded the original quadriology, so shouldn't we celebrate with some classic skinny dipping or something along those lines? It's a bit of a letdown, to say the least. -
Tonight's episode features a different tone to the series. Realistically, the series has a couple roller coaster rides of tones, it's primarily lighter when it comes to the scare factor. Trying to wow, and make the audience cringe at the sight of blood and gore. Each movie feels like it's trying to outdo the previous, most times succeeding. You'll get to hear Austin and I's viewpoint on the new set of characters, and how they stack up to the rest of the series. We've never felt like experts on horror, but we do pride ourselves in thinking of different routes the movies could have taken.
I've become accustomed to the cheesiness factor when I see anything 80's, with a few exceptions, and I do mean just a few. The 80's was so overpopulated with movies, The industry felt the more, the better. Hell, a lot more home movies were coming around, People using their hard earned money to capture their sometimes creepier ideas than you see in Hollywood. I could see how the aesthetic of woods horror is pretty similar to open ocean horror. Exploring the unknown, mostly. You'd think by now, the local police would have shut that campsite down, demolished anything in that merciless lake spot.
It's never too late for a sequel to something that spews out the green. The work ethic back then was insane, I still can't get over the fact of making these films nearly back to back with every entry. Nowadays, we have to wait years to get a sight of sequel. I'm a practical effects lover myself, it really shows the true creativity on all fronts of the crew. They have to modify and think a lot harder than someone clickity clackin away on a computer for effects. But hey, I get it, "Looks cooler". Jason is feeling like a friend to me by now, He's dispatching all the annoying teenagers in his land. Just merely chillin, trying to get by. Some of his kills felt so effortless, that he's just as annoyed as I am. The way he walks, the way his body talks murdering them. His actions are ooze with so much hilarity, that the giggle-fest comes in effect, And it "kills" me when he kills them. Sorry, the corny nature is contagious. -
Tonight's episode is filled with reminiscence and nostalgia for both Austin, and I. We have a lot of goofy stories to discuss in the upcoming episodes. As far as this one goes, we discuss the time I "Saved" him from hypothermia, and brought us closer together. Horror movies for the both of us has been a perfect escape from the daunting reality of mortality. Something about watching this genre, that's filled with death more times than not, has somehow made us not as scared about the end.
The countless times we've shot "milk" out of our noses from laughing so hard watching horrible horror movies, is more than I can count. Something about the cheesy nature of the way someone bites the dust, makes the movie all more pleasing for us. I think the Friday the 13th Series is something beautiful. It's primarily the same concept as the original (aside to Mother Vorhees being the culprit.) Yet each one feels like a standalone, if you take away the annoying flashbacks. Ok, maybe they aren't different at all, but the point is, well I don't know what the point is.
They're all easy to consume, aside to one movie, we won't mention until it's time. For most of us watching or listening, We all have spooky camping stories. Something that really struck our cerebral cortex's with imaginary Chronicles about the deep dark woods of whereverville, USA. Another thing our brains do, is conjure up menacing ways that we could be killed if we aren't vigilant enough(maybe that's just me).
I was fascinated by the ramp up in kills for the second one. To be fair, we do have a larger "human" dispatching others like leftovers in the garbage. I for one, was pleased with this sequel, but will my co-host agree with said statement? Or will the two feeble minds you're listening too, make zero sense throughout the entirety of this podcast? That's a given, really. -
Hello and welcome to the "re-work" of DrekculasUnderworld. The use of quotations is needed because, well, I'ts
still filled with my ranting and harsh criticism towards characters and the world they're in. Some additions you'll
see are "Underworld Awards" and an Underworld rating to wrap things up. I never claimed to be some expert in Horror,
I'm just a fan who likes to talk shit, for lack of better words. Another addition is having a Co-host joining me
along this new Journey. There isn't a set host at this time, but you'll be listening to my best friend of many
years, Austin. He's a lover of horror as well. He has lent his voice to my Anthology series
"Tales from the Underworld" (Currently working on the next season). I'm excited to bring you something fresh, as
am I.
The first series I wanted to start with was an easy decision on my part. Friday the 13th has been one of my favorite
slasher series of all time. The simplistic nature of a deranged mamas boy turned supernatural Zombie-ghost-thing
terrorizing everyone who enters Crystal Lake. Later on, he leaves the nest to test his hacking skills in the city,
and even in space! We've heard everything we need to know about this series. It's been covered on numerous
occasions, and I get why. There's something charming about it, The camp setting, the locals near the lake, and the
abundance of weapons he uses to dispatch his victims. Of course, we don't get that until the next films, but overall
I was surprised by the first film. My rewatch created a different feeling in me. Watching on a modern tv compared
to my old CRT tv created a sense of campiness that at first annoyed me, but then I fell in love with it. I went back
and watched it on my Box tv for old times' sake, and realized that the tinnitus-filled machine created an eerie atmosphere
that can't be recreated.
At first, Austin and I were apprehensive about covering this film while recording out at his property with a fire going,
but that just made this whole series feel that much better. The kills felt more personal in this film than any other
in the series, and that makes this one of the most unsettling of the series as well. We were pretty crucial in the
character's decisions, Too many moments in the film that made us upset. We voice that heavily in the Awards for
certain characters we disliked. Some unexpected character is also chosen as Austin's favorite which is a little
controversial you'll see.
We hope you enjoy the re-work of it, and be sure to send me some suggestions for any on-off movies I could cover while
covering this series throughout the year! Also, if anyone is interested in being on my scripted anthology series, Please reach out to me at my socials below. Thanks for stopping by, and as always stay spooked!

Many tales of “Santa Clause” roam amongst the world. The standard Santa is a man who employees tiny green clothed elves. They make millions of toys all year, so his rotund body can squeeze through a brick structure to deliver presents. I wonder if he can instill that level of commitment and accuracy to other delivery services.
Have you ever had nightmares about Christmas? You wake up, and Santa is tying you up in the bed, and instead of leaving presents he’s giving you the options for any last words before he takes your life? Maybe it’s not really Santa?
What about the stories of Ol’ Saint Nick involving something more sinister? Well, Listen along to this haunting tale of “Old Man Winter”

Traditions are the key for most people when it comes to feeling that “Joy” during the Christmas holidays, along with others. I’ve grown very fond of hearing peoples traditions that come along with their Christmas’s, some I’ve tried to incorporate in my own that sounded enticing.

We're in the midst of Christmas. You're stress-induced migraines most likely have already started. I could sit here and say it's not a huge ordeal. But, let's think about this. Retail stores have been affected by the online craze so much that retail stores have been exclusively having their own deals online only. Shopping in person is nearly a thing of the past with every year that passes. This advancement of technology has been a positive for people on a time crunch, and those who just don't want to leave their bubble. Have you ever thought about those times coming back? Deals that are so attractive that it brings out the animal in you? The craving of getting that product for half off? Would you sacrifice time with your family, children, and even your job? Would it be surprising if something catastrophic happens, and you mindlessly continue on the hunt for AA batteries? In tonight's episode, we follow a retail store striving to be the best brand, even if that means leaving a person behind.
