Trick or Treat (1986)

from Kill By Kill: Talking Horror Characters One Death At A Time · host We Write Good

Death to false podcasts!! We’re spinning this record backwards to summon the spirit of Hair Metal Past as we talk about 1986’s TRICK OR TREAT!! Along the way, we examine why the film believes metal fans were a targeted minority in 80s high schools, explore Gene Simmons’ scariest role, rage against the Dino De Laurentiis machine, and celebrate our new favorite horror icon: Sammy Curr played by the great Tony Fields!! All this, plus finger-licking shockers, bullied weenies, speaker veins, unfinished bedrooms, horsehead bookends, ear-melting orgasms, toilet traps, and a guitar-shredding edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!
