King Me

Grab your your board and your best girl(s) - we’re going to Beachworld! Adapted in 2019 from a story of same name, Jackie Perez’s Beachworld tells the story of two members of a spaceship crew marooned on a desert planet. There’s only sand as far as the eye can see, and yet the sand itself seems to hold a certain…allure…yes… After the break we take a look at the source material, which was first published in Weird Tales in 1984 and then again the following year as part of the Skeleton Crew collection.

Here there be a King Me Baby about a story written by a Baby King! No, not the Christ Child in his manger, but Stephen King circa high school. At the risk of spoiling this story, let's just say there are scarier things that can happen in a bathroom than finding a bobcat. Our adaptation from 2017 is brief without really sacrificing any plot elements...and still it feels thin. Maybe this says more about the source material than anything. Who can say.

Tucked away in the middle of Stephen King's short story collection Skeleton Crew is "Paranoid: A Chant," a 100-line poem from the point of view of a narrator who has fully given over his brain to conspiracy theories involving shadowy government agencies. This poem - this poem - was adapted into a short film in 2000, and in the most 2000 way possible. Lots of browns and yellows in the color palate, and the star of the short is inexplicably in her underwear.

Something is amiss in Bridgton, Ohio. Relatively straightforward cat-and-mouse detective stories are vanishing at a troubling rate. Season two of MR. MERCEDES is a departure from season one - mostly not for the better. Still, we find ourselves relishing any opportunity to get our Glees on. This episode also features an interview with Spanish film star Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men, Bicky Christhtina Barthelona) Get weekly episodes and request movies on our Patreon: https://patreon.com/kingmepod Email us at: [email protected] Letterboxd https://letterboxd.com/kingmepod/ Subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/king-me/id1071620322?mt=2 Subscribe & rate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5fWr5bSjFLtCDRda6oCeIW?si=84c3c8b55a294467

This week's episode is for the die hard King Me fans. The ones that like to hear Dan and Rob go off on every tangent. This week we're "discussing" the Hulu original series CASTLE ROCK (2018). It was a show marketed as sort of a Stephen King shared universe. What it turned out to be was a boring waste of time. This show is so boring, Rob took an edible before recording because he just wanted to feel something. Enjoy!

Out from behind the paywall is the first episode of our new weekly series, King Me Babies, in which we discuss short films produced as part of Stephen King's Dollar Baby program. You've probably heard us mention the Dollar Babies on the show: since the late '70s, Stephen King has allowed independent filmmakers to produce non-commercial adaptations of select works of his for the low, low price of one dollar. In addition to giving us the opportunity to discuss Frank Darabont's first-ever film (available now on Patreon), we also get to reassess some stories already produced as commercial films. In the most technical sense, The Lawnmower Man is one such story.

GRAMLINS?! The second episode of our Joe Dante miniseries covers an absolute masterpiece in the canon of both of our favorite genres: kids’ horror comedy and live action cartoon genre. This ep is all about heaping praise on a perfect movie, and a bit of Old-Man-Yells-At-Cloud lamentation about the current state of the studio comedy feature film. More important than anything we have to say about the movie, though, is the introduction of our new segment: Grandpa Go To Bathroom Watch.

We…DO talk about the book? Clearly we’ve forgotten the faces of our fathers. Given the stature of the Dark Tower series within Stephen King’s body of work (and given that these are some of the only books Dan’s ever read), we had no choice but to break the King Me Promise and discuss the source material for this one. If it helps at all, Dan seems to only barely remember them. There’s also plenty of discussion of The Dark Tower (2017) in its own right - and buddy, when I tell you we go full Jay Sherman on its ass… Get weekly episodes and request movies on our Patreon: https://patreon.com/kingmepod Email us at: [email protected] Letterboxd https://letterboxd.com/kingmepod/ Subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/king-me/id1071620322?mt=2 Subscribe & rate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5fWr5bSjFLtCDRda6oCeIW?si=84c3c8b55a294467

This is easily the most exciting miniseries (for us, at least) since Wall to Wall Carpenter: a review of four selections by the inimitable Joe Dante. We’re starting with Dante’s first-ish feature from 1978, PIRANHA. Despite (or, perhaps, THANKS TO??) the constraints of the Roger Corman school of filmmaking, PIRANHA features many signature Joe Dante elements: swarm of nasty little guys, Looney Tunes-esque climactic setpieces, and Dick Miller. Also coming up in this run will be Gremlins, The ‘Burbs, and Small Soldiers.

Thus concludes our analysis of a confused and confusing recapitulation of a legitimately very good movie. This series will not be…mist. Lots of low points, but at least it escalates in some weird ways. And, if nothing else, it’s very cool to see the Fisher King from The Fisher King still getting work. Also, as promised, the Little Steven hologram from the Newark Airport: https://twitter.com/njhalloffame/status/1103777514307096576 Get weekly episodes and request movies on our Patreon: https://patreon.com/kingmepod Email us at: [email protected] Letterboxd https://letterboxd.com/kingmepod/ Subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/king-me/id1071620322?mt=2 Subscribe & rate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5fWr5bSjFLtCDRda6oCeIW?si=84c3c8b55a294467

Another from the vault. Our research team (Dan in a Sherlock Holmes hat) dates this one to around December 2021, so just know that when we say "we're back" we don't yet know we're lying. You know what else is back? That old so-and-so, the mist. And this time, the mist is bugs. And this time, we don't really like it (at least so far): they took a nice, straight-ahead Lovecraftian allegory and Lost-ified it beyond all meaning. Stray note: our editing team (Dan in a French beret) noticed that Rob says "wartch" around the 14-minute mark, so enjoy that.

Sorry for the delay, ancient goblins. Unfortunately, the last four episodes of 11.22.63 were each 16 hours long.

This week we're joined by MELISSA JOUBEN to discussed the third (we must include the porn parody) remake of the classic horror film CARRIE. Starring the miscast Chloe Grace Moretz as Carrie White, the weirdest girl in school. You know, the outcast, picked on for being awkward and no guy would ever even think of asking out because she's so repellent. Chloe Grace Moretz. It's like She's All That with a higher body count.

We've heard of a lot of things, but the 2011 A&E miniseries BAG OF BONES? That we had not heard of! BAG OF BONES stars Pierce Brosnan as Mike Noonan, a novelist who's very busy mourning the death of his wife and becoming the legal guardian of a child he met earlier today. Over the course of the movie, and with the help of his dead wife's spirit, Mike learns important lessons about jazz and desecrating corpses. BAG OF BONES is lousy with King Tropes, and it takes on some very sensitive topics with a degree of nuance usually reserved for Pierce Brosnan's acting. To make matters worse, it's a Mick Garris joint, so it also serves as a cruel reminder of the time Dan pulled his hair.

This week we're joined by friend of the show and newly inducted CORN KID, JC HENDRICKS, to discuss a prequel to the sprawling CHILDREN OF THE CORN franchise takes us back to where it all started: 20 miles outside of Gatlin, briefly, and then southeastern California. (Sorry, but it's canon now.) With total disregard for its namesake, CHILDREN OF THE CORN: GENESIS joins films like THE MANGLER REBORN and SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK...FOR MORE in the pantheon of movies that were retrofitted into existing franchises for marketing purposes. But even a bastard MANGLER sequel has more dignity than this straight-to-DVD joint, which seems to be comprised of half original footage and half sequences from other projects Dimension owned the rights to.

What is there to say about Dolan's Cadillac? It's not magic. It doesn't drive the Devil around. It's kinda, just a car. But it does drive Christian "Heartthrob Jack Nicholson" Slater. This week we watch cinematic titans Christian Slater and Wes Bentley go head to head in a story about revenge and roadwork. What're you waiting for? Get in!

What if they remade the Children of the Corn only this time with a thinner plot and less likable characters? This week on KING ME, it's the triumphant return of the CORN KIDZ and our Corn Kidz expert SEAN THOMASON. There isn't a lot to like about this one. Are our hero's people we can empathize with? No. Is there a way too graphic sex scene? Yes. Nam flashbacks? You know it.

What has eight tentacles and forgot to post the episode on Wednesday? This Cthulu! This week we're talking about the super bleak, Lovecraftian, THE MIST.

No, where the hell have YOU been? Us? Oh, WE'RE BACK! This week on KING ME we're playing it fast and loose with our first foreign film, NO SMOKING. Seriously though, we watching this movie about 5 months ago and it was barely comprehensible then. Part of the time is spent hitting all the major point in the movie. The rest is just a good time. Hope you enjoy this. It's good to be back. HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

This week's episode is just a series of numbers. 1408 is like if the Shining all took place in that one room. It's pretty slow. What's Cusack's deal?

This is it! The last episode of NIGHTMARES & DREAMSCAPES. We started from the bottom and now we're here, which is also at the bottom. This week we were joined by special guest and hilarious person Ryan Barry to talk baby boomers, kegel stones, and which Vin Diesel characters would get their asses kicked by Dana Scully.

Another dumb episode of NIGHTMARES & DREAMSCAPES. But thankfully our dear friend JC Hendricks and his cavalcade of loose celebrity impressions are here to soften the blow as we discuss AUTOPSY ROOM FOUR, starring King alum Richard "Bill from IT (1990)" Thomas as a man who is either very sexy or kind of doughy, depending on what frame of the show you're watching.
