Psycho II (1983)

You can check in to the Bates Motel, but then you need to check out Kill By Kill as we explore the highly underrated PSYCHO II! Along the way we discuss how where Norman fits in Reagan’s America, debate why the Bates’ fruit cellar turns so many couples on, consider the erotic power of toasted cheese sandwiches, Patrick spills his behind-the-scenes A Christmas Carol cast stories, uncover the film’s crooked path to the screen, unpack the film’s deep sympathy for the plight of its characters within the movie, pine for a movie with a killer on rollerblades, and delve into that absolutely amazing final scene! All this, plus a fresh from the cupboard Choose Your Own Deathventure, and we dig into one of the 80s best “ethereal weird girls,” Meg Tilly! Listen to Mother and stay over with us today!!

In each episode, Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe unpack all the gory details of horror cinema's least discussed topic: the characters. From Friday the 13th to the Evil Dead franchise and beyond, our mission is to detail each hack, slash, and decapitation in the hopes that a victim's untimely end is just the beginning of the jokes we can make about them.
