Another Goddamn Horror Podcast!

This week we’re joined by filmmaker Daniel DelPurgatorio, director of the 2025 indie horror breakout Marshmallow—the summer-camp sci-fi horror movie that exploded online and became a TikTok horror sensation. We talk about how Marshmallow found its audience through viral clips, horror TikTok, word-of-mouth buzz, and festival screenings, helping turn it into one of the most talked-about independent horror films of 2025.
We dig into the film’s summer camp slasher vibes, sci-fi horror influences, practical effects, audience reactions, and how TikTok and social media are changing the way indie horror movies break through. Plus, Daniel talks about the film’s unexpected momentum, cult following, and what’s next for the Marshmallow universe.

Episode 223 of Another Goddamn Horror Podcast is an absolute banger. We sit down with comedian, TikTok star, horror fanatic, and all-around force of nature Kirsten Michelle Cills for one of our most heartfelt, funny, and horror-obsessed episodes yet. This one truly feels like it was meant to happen.
Kirsten opens up about growing up with a terminal illness and how living with mortality shaped her worldview, her comedy, and her deep love of movies, especially horror. We talk about her journey into stand-up comedy, what it is like being a working comedian with a terminal illness.
We also dive deep into her wildly popular TikTok channel Kir Kills, breaking down how she creates such smart, funny, and insightful horror content.
Of course, we go hard on the Scream franchise, from Wes Craven’s original meta-horror classic to the sequels, reboots, and requels. We talk Ghostface killers, final girls, kill scenes, legacy characters, and why Scream remains one of the most important and influential horror franchises of all time. Kirsten is genuinely one of the funniest guests we have ever had on the show and a true authority on horror films.
This episode blends comedy, horror, film analysis, disability, mortality, and fandom without ever losing its sense of humor.
This is not an episode to be missed.
