In this Patreon-exclusive episode, to celebrate the coronation of Mike Flanagan's adaptation of Carrie, I examine the enduring legacy of this story and why it has held such a grip on pop culture for over 50 years.

Resident Evil maintains a rocket fuel propulsive momentum throughout the entire movie by adhering to the logic of this scene from The Simpsons, and this template should be used more in storytelling:

Who is Patrick Danville? This minor character from Insomnia plays a large role in the final book of the Dark Tower series. But to understand his importance, you need to look not at the story of The Dark Tower, but at the artists who contributed to shaping the look of the story over the decades.

What’s wild about Zach Cregger’s movies is that each one is completely different than the one before it. Now I can’t wait to see what he does with his next one because I have no idea what he’s capable of at this point.

Resident Evil is so much fun. Go see it now with the biggest crowd possible. It has nothing to do with any of the games, but it also feels more like the games than any other Resident Evil movie that has come before. Zach Cregger’s track record is now a strong 3/3.

Tim Robbins. Kathy Bates. Bill Skarsgård. Sissy Spacek. Considered some of the greatest King performances. But there's one name that deserves to on the top of that list: Brendan Gleeson as Bill Hodges. Click here to find out why!

Here, I break down what the footage tells us about what this adaptation will be, discuss the official synopsis, defend Flanagan's decision to update it by placing social media into the heart of the bullying and dust off my theory that Sue Snell is an unreliable narrator and should not be trusted.

At long last, I jump into the world of The Boys. I review the history of the comic book, its journey to the small screen and the pop cultural and political satire that not only reflected our current political state, but in same cases, predicted it.

Help me out. I’ve somehow made it tak this far in life without ever watching Desperation. I just fired it up, and don't know what I'm about to get myself into I'm a wolf. Is it worth the watch? What type of Mick Garris adaptation am I about to get? Let me know what you think before I dive in.

What a productive morning! Got myself a cup of coffee, and podded about the incredible episodes 4 and 5 of Daredevil: Born Again and gave my thoughts on Mick Garris' Riding the Bullet. Later on, I'll watch the return of Godzilla to the world of Monarch and record a review of Dean Koontz's Watchers.

This makes me sad on a number of levels. One, I don't want to think about this at all. And secondly, that he thinks he won't be remembered.

Making my way through early 2000s TV adaptations. I missed it on the first go around and never had a real interest in checking it out. So I fired up TUBI and plopped myself down on the couch. I'll give you all my thoughts in an upcoming episode. But in the meantime, what do you all think?
