Killcast

 

I'll be straight up here zits and zombies with Killcast-don't fucking watch it. Just don't. This is another one to add to the pile where almost nothing happens for 72 minutes (I didn't even watch this flick to the end mind you) and there is a continuous mountain of characters that you don't and won't give a shit about. The kills that take place here are so sporadic and spaced out during the runtime that you start wondering if what this film is supposed to be about is even going to live up to it. I really don't have a whole lot to say about Killcast because it doesn't provide anything worth mentioning. The only plug to another flick that this waste has is that the Kat Von D/tattoo chick that's in the opening scene of Late Checkout is present here except she's our main girl this time and she hosts a serial killer podcast named "The Final Bitch Podcast" and even that within the film itself is just godawful and dreadful. I really was behind the concept here where she hosts a killer podcast and ends up getting involved in what the newest serial killer is doing to her friends in her own home town-but it never delivers on that slender promise. This movie doesn't do much of anything besides boring the living hell out of the viewer and it's honestly a shame. I should have known what to expect from this regurgitated ramen soup when the SRS logo popped up on-screen when this thing started because I came to the conclusion many, many years ago when Cinema Slayer was in it's infancy that that logo is the kiss of death. It's the smooch of boredom, the cheek-to-cheek slick of poison and the hand holding of suicide. There's no hope when it comes to a horror or cult film with the SRS stamp on it, and right when I saw that I should have just skipped this one. But no, I'm to stubborn for that-I wanted to give Killcast a chance. Maybe this flick would redeem the brand and swoon me back into their fold after all of these years, but no... it didn't. It solidified my resolve to what I already knew was true even more and once again I'm going to state on here that if you watch anything that has that red lettering in front of it or in the opening credits somewhere to lure you in, just fucking turn the thing off and read a book. Hell, if I would have known that Killcast was going to be an entry for a possible worst of the year list for the end of here at 2026, I would have either watched something else on my list or I would have continued reading more of the Life Expectancy novel by Dean Koontz that I'm in the middle of at the moment. So basically it comes down to awful, pointless kills, almost no plot and characters that mean absolutely nothing to anyone here in Killcast. Just don't attempt this one and maybe, just maybe I'll end up having the time to watch enough films this year to put together a worst of the year list for 2026. And this is prime meat for the grinder.
