Misery (w/ Cooper Tomlinson)
Episode description
Listen up, buster! We’ve got a great episode for you, but it does contain undignified language. That’s right, we remain unhobbled as we discuss one of the best Stephen King adaptations of all time, 1990’s MISERY. Here to help drag us out of the snow and back into bed where we belong is one of the stars of the new horror film, OBSESSION, Cooper Tomlinson. Along the way, we explore how the story went from page to screen, unpack the many cockadoodie layers of Annie Wilkes, consider the alternate versions of Paul Sheldon, and uncover the secret subgenre of the finished film. All this, plus popcorn rations, the horror/comedy connection, the Annie Industrial Complex of the internet, leaving behind what you no longer love, Francis Sternhagen appreciation, and a well-composed edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! Folks, believe us when we say we’re your biggest fan… if you listen to this all-new episode of Kill By Kill.
