Kill Tony: Kill or Be Killed (2025)

Kill Tony: Kill or Be Killed is a raw and electrifying 2025 talk-show-style comedy film that captures the unpredictable energy of live stand-up. With just a bucket, a microphone, and one minute to impress, comedians step into the spotlight to face host Tony Hinchcliffe and a rotating panel of celebrity guests. The setup is brutally simple, but the outcome is anything but.

Directed by Anthony Giordano, the film documents a high-stakes showcase where the margin between laughter and silence is razor-thin. Aspiring comedians are pulled from the audience at random, given exactly sixty seconds to perform their set, and then subjected to candid feedback, hilarious banter, or complete takedowns from the panel. The format brings out the bold, the bizarre, and sometimes the brilliant.

At the center is Tony Hinchcliffe, whose sharp wit and commanding presence drive the show’s momentum. Alongside him, co-host Brian Redban provides comic relief and behind-the-scenes support. Special appearances from guests like Gary Clark Jr., Kyle Dunnigan, Shane Gillis, and others add variety, while characters such as Elon Musk and Donald Trump impersonations keep the atmosphere chaotic and comedic.
