Podcast appearances and mentions of leland gaunt

A devilish shopkeeper arrives in a small Maine town, his suitcase packed with wonders and his ledger full of names. In "Needful Things," we witness the unraveling of Castle Rock through the machinations of one Leland Gaunt, a stranger with uncanny insight into the deepest desires of everyone he meets.Max von Sydow masterfully portrays Gaunt, the charismatic proprietor offering townsfolk exactly what they want most—a rare baseball card, a carnival glass lampshade, Elvis Presley's sunglasses—items that speak to profound yearning far beyond their material worth. But these treasures come with a hidden cost. Each customer must perform a seemingly harmless prank on another resident, tricks that Gaunt orchestrates to prey on existing tensions within the community.What makes this Stephen King adaptation so compelling isn't the supernatural elements but its exploration of human psychology. As Sheriff Alan Pangborn (Ed Harris) watches his peaceful town descend into chaos, we witness how easily social bonds fray when neighbors suspect each other of increasingly malicious acts. The film excels at demonstrating the domino effect of Gaunt's manipulations—how small slights escalate to violence, how petty rivalries bloom into murderous rage.The film poses an uncomfortable question that resonates beyond its 1993 release: What would you sacrifice for your heart's desire? As we watch characters commit increasingly terrible acts to obtain or keep seemingly trivial objects, we're forced to examine our own attachments and what price we might pay for them. When the shop stands empty for those who want nothing, we're left wondering—is contentment our strongest defense against temptation? And in a world constantly selling us solutions to problems we didn't know we had, perhaps this cautionary tale about the cost of getting exactly what you want strikes deeper now than ever before.

Needful ThingsEine neue Art von Laden"Sie werden Ihren Augen nicht trauen!"Der ortsfremde Leland Gaunt taucht plötzlich in Castle Rock auf und eröffnet seinen Laden "Needful Things". Wie es scheint, findet hier jeder etwas...

Don't be fooled by the shelves upon shelves of useless crap, Leland Gaunt will run down to his little basement to get the thing you most desire in this world. In Stephen King's Needful Things (1993), the Devil (maybe) comes to Castle Rock to sow discord between the good townsfolk. And whilst he proves he can see the future, he fails to predict just how boring two hours of cinema can be.Music created by Jack Parsons.Follow us on Twitter & Instagram and check out our YouTube channel.

Welcome to the Haunted Library. This month's installment is all about the so called “last Castle Rock Story,” Needful Things. We're your hosts, Ryan and Sherri,  the founding members of the Castle Rock Book Club. I think this was the Castle Rock story that we were most looking forward to reading. "Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed," usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior."Contact/Follow Us Email: scaredycats.podcats@gmail.comTwitter: @CatsScaredyInstagram: @scaredycatsthepodcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZaoOcdQ3bSS3iTFLhO4A2QRyan:Twitter: @ryanm642Website: ryanmills.artThe Castle Rock Book Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/358809789190164/Support the show (https://www.paypal.me/scaredysherri)

Buyer beware in Castle Rock, as Leland Gaunt only wants a little of your money, and all of your soul. Stephen King's 1994 novel Needful Things gets a dismantling with returning guest Dan Jones. One of our mutual favourites, and one of the stories that signposted the interesting development King's work would take in the 1990s, as he starts to leave Maine behind (in explosive fashion) and branches out to weirder climes.... Dan Jones is the author of Man o' War, published by Snowbooks which can be purchased from amazon, forbidden planet.......and he has his own website www.danjonesbooks.club, he is also the co-host of the SFF Chrons podcast, a new pod dealing with deep dives into the classics of the science fiction, fantasy and horror genres. I am going to be guest soon talking about An American Werewolf in London, and am very excited to be part of this new series.

Max Von Sydow is dead.  Time for a little retrospective with Gilbert and Lee's memories of the film "Needful Things" where the actor shines as Leland Gaunt aka The Devil.  CORRECTION:  Gil and Lee refer to the film "The Seventh Sign" when they mean to say "The Seventh Seal" during their discussion.

Things are getting a little heated in Castle Rock. Leland Gaunt's having a fire sale over at Needful Things, and the town is losing their minds. Fortunately, the Losers are safely shacked up in the Mellow Tiger, where they can continue discussing Stephen King's epic 1991 classic. Chapters include: Intro, Misery (4:30), Word Processor of the Gods (33:00), The Sematary (53:00), Poundcake (1:20:00), King's Dominion (1:37:00), and Final Thoughts (1:52:00).

Who wins, Max Von Sydow vs. The Devil? What happens when Max Von Sydow *is* The Devil? We don't have the answers for you. What we do have is two movies about The Devil, as November's vanguard brings Monstoberfest to a close. First up, Trevor and Matt sample a slice of the classic William Friedkin horror masterpice: THE EXORCIST. The guys watched the movie and they have thoughts they'd like to share. Specifically if THE EXORCIST manages to get past Matt's predisposition to disliking demon-posession films? Von Sydow plays an elderly priest and archeologist, who is asked to help rid a young girl of her literal demons. Second on the docket: Max Von Sydow takes up arms against the other side. In NEEDFUL THINGS, Von Sydow plays the charismatic and manipulative Leland Gaunt, proprietor of a small-town antique store. However Gaunt isn't as he appears to be, he's actually doing a great bit of schemeing and tempting, leaving it up to Ed Harris to get to the bottom of things. Does The Devil make us do bad things, or were we just not living up to our evil potential?
