33 - The Mangler (1995) w/ JC Hendricks

King Me ·

2016/11/01

What happens when Robert Englund, Tobe Hooper, and (to a much lesser extent) Stephen King team up to make a film? Somehow, not that much. Much of THE MANGLER is set in an industrial laundry factory, and that's about as exciting as it gets. Luckily, comedian/friend of the show JC Hendricks returns to help tackle THE MANGLER, and he's got reams of notes. Also in this episode: Hard Left Turns, Hard Right Turns.

32 - The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

King Me ·

2016/10/04

Too much Morgan Freeman voice, we agree. Much like the rest of society, we love Frank Darabont's The Shawshank Redemption. And yet, we start the episode by talking about Dr. Strange and The Green Mile. Also in this episode: bottles of suds, cartoon skunks, and the pilot of our new show Episode I On One Follow us on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kingmepod/ Subscribe/rate/review us on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/king-me/id1071620322?mt=2 Support us with a dollar:

31 - The Stand (1994)

King Me ·

2016/09/26

Most Stephen King fans agree that his post-apocalyptic epic novel THE STAND is his magnum opus. We will not be discussing that, as we are forbidden from doing so. Instead, we're parsing through all six hours of the miniseries that aired in 1994 and stars Gary Sinise, Molly Ringwald, Rob Lowe, and Bill Fagerbakke (the voice of Patrick Star on Nickelodeon's SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS). But the true star of this movie is stereotypes we can't believe were acceptable only twenty years ago. Also in this

30 - Needful Things (1993) w/ Brock Wilbur

King Me ·

2016/09/13

The voice of Brock Wilbur stops by for a loving discussion of this hand-picked sorta-Faustian, sorta-monkey's paw, sorta-Rolling Stones classic. NEEDFUL THINGS is the story of what happens when the devil comes to Castle Rock (he opens an antique shop). Also in this episode: how to spot a forgery, and the devil's nickname for Jesus becomes King Me canon. You can follow Brock on twitter @brockwilbur Check out his stand up albums, NIGHTMARE FUEL, 28 YEARS LATER, and CRIME TRAVEL on iTunes. Follow

29 - The Tommyknockers (1993)

King Me ·

2016/08/30

Shoot a pickle? THE TOMMYKNOCKERS was originally aired in 1993 as a two-part miniseries, but we're swilling it all down at once like a fine gin and tonic (hold the tonic). Both parts were adapted by Stephen King himself from the novel of same name, and it shows in the signature broad comedic beats throughout--including one of the best pratfalls ever put on film. It's a weird one, though. Traci Lords plays the villain and seduces a cop named Jingles, but not before a police officer is murdered by

28 - The Dark Half (1993) w/ Mike Levine

King Me ·

2016/08/23

Mike Levine, author of ALL THE FEELINGS: HELLA DRAMATIC MONOLOGUES FOR THESPIANS OF A TEEN AGE (Devastator Press), stops by to discuss the 1993 George Romero-Stephen King team-up THE DARK HALF. More accurately, Rob and Dan stop by to visit Mike at Sarah Lawrence College. After Dan finishes mispronouncing "Levine," we get into the how the DARK HALF is basically a more on-the-nose version of MISERY's addiction tale, and a weird digression in George Romero's oeuvre. Then we fawn over the alpha-townie

27 - Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice (1992)

King Me ·

2016/08/17

CORN KIDZ BABY We are so excited to have arrived back in Gatlin, Nebraska, at the second installment in the unlikely franchise of CHILDREN OF THE CORN movies. Although we're without our resident corn kid expert, Sean Thomason, we'll do our best to figure out what makes these little maize faces tick. Between its weird allusions to much better movies and wheelchair-bound mannequins fucking up bingo games, CHILDREN OF THE CORN II: THE FINAL SACRIFICE is a sequel that rivals the likes of PET SEMATARY 2

26 - Pet Sematary 2 (1992) w/ Tony Wilson

King Me ·

2016/08/09

We're back, baby! And we're joined by Tony Wilson as he returns to discuss the movie he thought was Pet Sematary One: Pet Sematary Two. Tony retells his harrowing Sizzler story, and maybe finds some closure, as we break down this good-ass movie. Sure it's got its flaws, like wild tonal inconsistencies, and it's yet another obvious candidate for Oh That Hurts My Parts, but we love it. We love it a lot. Also in this episode: A David Byrne deep cut intro, Eddie Furlong performs his signature scream

01:44:08

25 - Sleepwalkers (1992) w/ Jack Steiger

King Me ·

2016/07/26

We're keeping it in the family this week as stand up comedian/co-host of INTRODUCING...THE FIRST APPEARANCE PODCAST Jack Steiger joins us to talk about a film that also keeps it in the family. SLEEPWALKERS (1992) is the story of two big wet vampire cat people--possibly the last of their kind--who need to suck out virgin sparkles to stay alive. They have the power to disguise themselves, automobiles, and ostensibly nothing else. Also in this episode: Jack really doesn't want to tell us how to run

01:33:31

24 - The Lawnmower Man (1992) w/ JC Hendricks

King Me ·

2016/07/19

THE LAWNMOWER MAN (1992) stars Pierce Brosnan as Larry Angelo, a scientist and recently widowed chimp-friend of five years who's studying the extremely made-up rules of virtual reality technology. His research seems to have plateaued--until he meets Jobe (Jeff Fahey), the cartoonish portrayal of a "simple" man, who is the perfect candidate to receive his brain juice injections. Everything seems to going well--until Uncle Hank substitutes to the good brain juice for the bad brain juice. A classic

23 - Golden Years (1991) w/ Mark Henely

King Me ·

2016/07/12

Host of INTRODUCING...THE FIRST APPEARANCE PODCAST Mark Henely joins us in studio (!) this week. If you don't remember 1991's GOLDEN YEARS, that's not weird. Besides the David Bowie theme song of same name, there's really not much to latch onto in this seven-part miniseries. The main character is weirdly named Harlan Williams, Felicity Huffman does a proto-Scully, and Ed Lauter's face takes up his whole head. That's it. Also in this episode: week two of a Talking Heads parody intro, the formal

22 - Sometimes They Come Back (1991)

King Me ·

2016/07/05

A veritable cornucopia of King Tropes, the 1991 TV movie SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK tells the story of beige rage monster Jim Norman (Tim Matheson) as he goes toe-to-toe with three dead teenagers. Also in this episode: several dogs, and Rob takes umbrage with this film's utter lack of a certain green hot dog fiend.

21 - Misery (1990)

King Me ·

2016/06/21

This episode is an absolute lovefest. Rob Reiner goes 2/2 for with Stephen King adaptations with his tight suspense classic starring James Caan and Kathy Bates in her breakout role. Rob and Dan talk about MISERY as an addiction allegory and as an abuse narrative, but also it's funny. Also in this episode: we say "pig" like fifteen times and it's not a sex thing.

20 - It (1990) w/ Amanda Meadows & Geoffrey Golden

King Me ·

2016/06/14

Come float with us as we explore the confused and confusing world of Stephen King’s IT, starring Tim Curry and a bunch of other schmucks, but who cares about them? They’re not Tim Curry. How could we possibly be expected to learn their names? Dan has some trouble introducing our guests, so let’s try to get it right here: together, Amanda Meadows and Geoffrey Golden are the Editors of The Devastator. Amanda is also a writer of books, her most recent of which is called WE DON’T THINK YOU’RE RACIST,

19 - Graveyard Shift (1990)

King Me ·

2016/06/07

GRAVEYARD SHIFT (1990) is the story of the struggle between evil/rats vs. good/Diet Pepsi. Also in this episode: Rob and Dan try improv!

18 - Tales From The Darkside: The Movie (1990) w/...

King Me ·

2016/05/31

Alex Firer (The Onion News Network, Splitsider, The Devastator) joins Rob and Dan to talk TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE: THE MOVIE, directed by John Harrison; written by Stephen King, Michael McDowell, Arthur Conan Doyle, and George Romero; and starring Christian Slater, Debbie Harry, Matthew Lawrence, Steve Buscemi, Julianne Moore, David Johansen, Rae Dawn Chong, and motherfucking James Remar. Also in this episode: Mummies are the worst, Dan eats butt, and we're joined by Stephen King, James Remar, and

17 - Pet Sematary (1990) w/ Tony Wilson

King Me ·

2016/05/24

This week we're joined by Tony Wilson, creator of the iOS game MAIM STREET, to talk about PET SEMATARY. PET SEMATARY is directed by Mary Lambert (not from the Macklemore song), and stars Fred Gwynne (NOT Ed Wynn, like Dan sort of says at the top) and some other schmucks. Also in this episode: everyone takes a turn doing a Fred Gwynne voice, Dan realizes he loves fire, and Rob performs a George Dalton sneak attack. Do you like Tony? Do you think he's handsome?

16 - The Running Man (1987)

King Me ·

2016/05/17

Remember last week when we were like, "We'll have one of two exciting guests?" We got one, and recorded with him not long before this episode dropped. When we went to edit the file, we found it had been all jacked up by computer violence far beyond our comprehension, and at that point it was too short notice to try to book our other exciting guest (who will still be joining us for another episode). But you'll hear all about it in gratuitous detail. We're also talking about THE RUNNING MAN (1987),

01:11:57

15 - A Return To Salem's Lot (1987)

King Me ·

2016/05/10

A RETURN TO SALEM'S LOT, directed by Larry Cohen, is a bad movie. It's a really bad movie. The opening scene is set in the rainforest, and by the end of it an elderly man is hunting Nazis. Its only tie to Stephen King is that its characters are "based on characters created by Stephen King." Beyond that, King had zero involvement. Also in this episode: child marriages and Chico Marx.
