I wasn’t sure what to expect with KILD TV. Other reviews stated that it was campy and almost a troma film, which I am not very fond of at any time. The trailer left me feeling like I already had the killer pegged and the MO was not entirely unique.
Thankfully, it was none of the above. I would say this is a red-blooded American horror flick featuring all the traditional elements we love; girls, gore, and a multi-murder mystery unfolding in front of our eyes.
KILD TV follows a late night at a small TV Station where they broadcast horror movies with a sarcastic and dark host, similar to when Elvira was on late at night back in the day. You won’t have to wait long before the killing begins and the ‘who-done-it’ mystery unfolds. With several suspicious well cast characters, their only salvation is clues from the dead. Meanwhile they broadcast desperate pleas to the viewers to help but who would believe a show known for its antics and that isn’t afraid of a little gore?
My favorite character was the ‘ghostly host’ Dr. Ultim Perseco, leading the midnight hour fright flick played by D.C Douglas. I loved when he was in character… the stereotypical mad doctor and the strength and level head he brought when ‘himself’.
KILD TV is not going to be a classic, a film you will watch time and time again, nor will it be a film you have to analyze but sometimes you don’t need that in a horror film. Sometimes you just need to watch and have fun while it all unfolds; Preferably with a drink in hand and good company. That’s what kind of film KILD TV is and it is worth checking out for sure.
