108: Dreamcatcher with Blank Check's Griffin Newman and David Sims
Feb 23, 2022
Show notes
Dreamcatcher is one of Stephen King's least favorite of his own novels, but how does it stack up with the co-hosts of a very popular film podcast? This story of a group of childhood friends battling an extra-terrestrial menace with psychic powers and a little help from their deeply problematic friend, Duddits, should have been a non-stop pinata party, but there are some surprise fans in the mix for this discussion.

Feb 16, 2022
Show notes
Stephen King's first full-blown masterpiece, and the novel that moved him firmly to the top of the best seller list, is front and center once more. The topic: The Shining. The guest... well, someone comfortable wearing some really short shorts.
106: The Mangler 2 with DC Pierson
Feb 09, 2022
Show notes
Did you know they made a sequel to The Mangler that doesn't involve a haunted laundry press at all? Well, now you do. Instead of an evil laundry machine the sequel takes the absolutely bonkers step of making it an evil computer virus that takes over a boarding school run by Lance Henriksen and boy is it a crazy watch.
105: The Overlook Hotel with Glen Mazzara
Feb 02, 2022
Show notes
Way back in the halcyon year of 2014, Warner Bros attempted a prequel to The Shining and one man rose to the challenge, crafting a truly messed up screenplay called The Overlook Hotel which tells the story of the family that built the dastardly hotel.

103: Maximum Overdrive with Flula Borg
Jan 19, 2022
Show notes
Maximum Overdrive is a film that requires a lot of silliness when trying to discuss it, so it's no coincidence that the boys have brought in a heavy hitter to look at Stephen King's one and only directorial outing.
102: Needful Things with Axelle Carolyn

101: From A Buick 8 with Grady Hendrix
Jan 05, 2022
Show notes
King's story about a mysterious car that is somehow a portal to another dimension and the cops who sit around and drink coffee while talking about it a lot is divisive. It has even turned the hosts of The Kingcast against each other.
