We're doing something different with The Confessional today. We start out as usual with some good news and recent watches including Primetime and Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom.

Ep. 23: Needful Things (1993) Sep 25, 2026

Show notes

Stephen King September concludes with a look at one of the more underrated adaptations of King's work, 1993s Needful Things. We discuss that stacked cast including Max Von Sydow as the deliciously devilish Leland Gaunt, the ways the devil does his business, and how desire affects us all. We top it all off by sharing a couple "Needful Things" of our own. So hop in your black 1958 Mercedes and join us in Castle Rock for one hell of a good time.

Beep Beep Listeners! We continue Stephen King September with a trip into the sewers and the 1990 miniseries of IT.

We discuss our favorite Losers, the nature of fear, and the value of community especially in the face of hardship. So be sure to join us. We all float down here.

Ep. 21: Carrie (1976) with Mike Snoonian Sep 11, 2026

Show notes

Stephen King September continues with the first, and still among the best, film adaptation of a King novel--Brian DePalma's Carrie (1976). Pat was sick and unable to make it to the prom, so Brian is joined by guest Mike Snoonian of the Pod and the Pendulum and Psycho Analysis podcasts. They discuss religious fanaticism and the trauma it causes, whether Miss Collins and Sue Snell are really helping Carrie or just soothing their own guilt, that iconic ending, and much much more.

Ep. 20: Children of the Corn (1984) Sep 04, 2026

Show notes

Welcome to Stephen King September! We're kicking off a new month with one of the more...divisive...adaptations of Uncle Steve's work, Children of the Corn from 1984, or as Pat likes to call it Corn Kidz: The Reckoning. We get into the really deep issues like what defines a cult, when does a religion cross the line, and what exactly was the corn budget on this movie? Just a word of warning, we are both dads, so things might get corny.
