    Are there any SK adaptations that you absolutely hate?

    Don't hate - such an extreme reaction - but really dislike the Rob Lowe - Salem's Lot. Terrible adaptation with not one likeable character.

    Doctor Sleep adaptation coming from Gerald's Game director Mike Flanagan

    Movie being moved up from 2020 to this year November is a great sign. Maybe some potential Oscar noms? Getting Rebecca Ferguson to play Rose the Hat is inspired. She was awesome in the last two Mission Impossible movies! Over what Flanagan did with Hill House on Netflix can't wait to see what he...

    Question: how does your interpretation of It differ from the films?

    Beverly was more of a bad ass in the book and not turned into a damsel in distress like the 2017 version did. There's much to like about the 2017 but the setup for the climax was so cliched.

    I guess we know what happens to Ellie Creed now

    I like the change. It avoids the Chucky problem of the book and original movie and allows the movie to tap into more of the book's mythology. Plus there already is the previous adaptation. This change ensures this version won't be a carbon copy of the 1989 version. Based on early reviews from...

    THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE -- Netflix

    Loved the series. Scary because I became emotionally connected to the characters and became concerned for their fates thanks to wonderful writing and super directing of Mike Flanagan. Hate to jump the gun but this one has the earmarks of a classic. Can't wait to see what Mr. Flanagan does with...

    Help wanted:

    If you find a way to make money from podcasting, hope you are willing to share the secret. Fan podcasts are a labour of love and in my experience the money flows from you to the podcast. Not the other way around.
