Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema’s most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We’re celebrating five years of cinematic redemption, and our Spooktacular series continues with a deep dive into one of the internet’s earliest horror nightmares.As Spooktober comes to a close, the Not A Bomb crew is going out with a bang—and a scream. In this special episode, Troy and Brad dive into the cult classic Trick or Treat (1986), a supernatural slasher that blends heavy metal mayhem with ghostly vengeance. The film follows a teenager nicknamed Ragman, who finds himself haunted by the spirit of his favorite rockstar. It’s loud, it’s weird, and it’s the perfect way to wrap up a month of horror.To keep the rockstar energy alive, the guys welcome a true guitar powerhouse to the show — Nashville’s own Leilani Kilgore. A fiery singer-songwriter with licks sharp enough to melt steel, Leilani joins the crew to dive into Trick or Treat, a cult favorite that blends heavy metal and horror in all the best ways. Along the way, she opens up about life in the modern rock scene, the grind of independent artistry, and what it’s like to share the stage with modern legends like Christone “Kingfish” Ingram. Equal parts charm and shred, Leilani’s passion for music and her no-nonsense take on the industry make this episode as electrifying as her live performances.🎶 Bonus: Leilani gives us a behind-the-scenes insights into her latest album TELL YOUR GHOST—a raw, soulful journey through highs, lows, and everything in between. If you haven’t heard it yet, now’s the time.And don’t miss the part where she reveals how you can score some killer swag.
