--NSFW-- OTCB - 2025's The Long Walk. On The Chopping Block this week is 2025's The Long Walk!! Based on Stephen King's 1979 novel (released under the pseudonym "Richard Bachman"). King actually wrote the book when he was 19, during his freshman year at the University of Maine in 1966-67. Adapting it for the big screen has been in the works since 1988, was it worth the wait?   Join the conversation! Email us at lowdownbrown.gui@gmail.com Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

The first screen adaptation of The Running Man saw four different directors fired, the final director come in once filming had begun (while Arnold Schwarzenegger and his lycra were away from the set). Schwarzenegger would lament the final film, and Stephen King - who penned the original novel (as Richard Bachman) - wouldn't be hugely impressed either. But still: there's a reason it's still talked about today. In development for decades at Walt Disney Animation Studios, meanwhile, was an animated feature surrounding videogaming. Yet it took three attempts to get there, and some pretty complex negotiations too... Stories of both are told in this episode... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Director Frances Lawrence and screenwriter J.T. Mollner's adaptation of Stephen King's "The Long Walk" has been Scotty's most anticipated movie of 2025. So he invited his buddy Amelia Ampuero--the co-host of his other podcast, The Weirdest Thing--back onto the show to talk about it. Scotty gives a quick rundown of the book's history (along with the lore behind the Richard Bachman pen name) before the two dive into their respective reactions to the film. How did Scotty think it held up to King's nihilistic teenage first novel? How did Amelia--a newcomer to the story--respond to this dark mirror of America? Listen and find out! WARNING: This is a SPOILER HEAVY episode for both the book and the movie. Scotty also drops a big spoiler for Frank Darabont's 2007 adaptation of King's "The Mist." So be warned.

Fifty boys start walking, three warnings get you shot, and somehow we are the ones out of breath. In this week's Mindframes, Michael and Dave march into The Long Walk—where Cooper Hoffman broods, David Jonsson keeps the heart beating, and Mark Hamill cosplays as your least favorite PE teacher. Along the way we debate whether dystopias should come with better snacks, why America's obsessed with televised misery, and if ★★★/5 means we survived… or just need new shoes.

We are back with the 11th episode of We All Float Down Here — A Stephen King podcast. Our third of 2025 is our first “Richard Bachman” episode. King famously wrote a bunch of books as Richard Bachman, later publishing them under his own name as “The Bachman Books”, including the standalone volume of ‘Thinner'. So we're talking about that in the publishing chronology (1984) and also the 1996 film adaptation. The podcast goes out on YouTube first and foremost — so we'd love you to like and subscribe over there.Sounds Good! is a reader-supported publication.

Buckle up, baby! Tony dives headfirst into the chilling trailer for the upcoming film adaptation of Stephen King's The Long Walk, originally penned under his Richard Bachman alias.

Send us a textKathy, Burk and Ramesh react to the Trailer for The Running Man, an upcoming dystopian black comedy action film film co-written, produced and directed by Edgar Wright, based on the 1982 novel of the same name by Stephen King (under his pseudonym Richard Bachman). It is the second adaptation of the book following the 1987 film and stars Glen Powell, William H. Macy, Lee Pace, Emilia Jones, Michael Cera, Daniel Ezra, Jayme Lawson, Colman Domingo, and Josh Brolin.Support the show

It was Independence Day this week, but ironically this episode keeps reverting back to kings. Amazon looks for a director and an actor for His Majesty's secret service in the Bond franchise, Stephen King's The Stand gets a new adaptation and Richard Bachman (re: Stephen King, again) gets a trailer for Edgar Wright's new version of The Running Man. Meanwhile, Paramount guarantees their huge merger with Skydance by bending the knee to a man who thinks himself king. Steam and Nintendo offer feasts (of deals) fit for a king, including discounts on many Mushroom Kingdom related titles. It's a real game of thrones around here, I tell you hwhat. That's a little King of the Hill reference.

Nuevo sonido, añadimos las pistas de audio de la película para una mayor inmersión, y una sorpresa para aquellos que esperen hasta el final del audio...

G and John take a big 'ol bite out of Thinner, written under King's pseudonym Richard Bachman. What happens when you have an egotistical lawyer, an old man with a grudge, and a cartoony gangster? Well perhaps King's best book written under the Bachman pen name. Throw in some disturbing curses, a slingshot wielding girl, and a cursed pie... yep that's right, a cursed pie, then you some schlock that would make the Crypt Keeper giggle with glee. Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy.

In 1987, Arnold Schwarzenegger was well on his way to becoming the biggest action star in the world. Later on in the year, he would be in Predator. But first, he'd star in the Stephen King adaptation The Running Man. Or is it a Richard Bachman adaptation? What's the difference, and why would the rights to this book be $100,000, surprising the hell out of producer George Linder? We get into all of this, as well as a full review of the Paul Michael Glaser (Starsky?) directed film, in the podcast below. Also, find out what franchise we'll be attacking next. That is, should we choose to accept it. All this, as well as many puns, when you listen to this week's Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast!

As we already established on our The Dead Zone podcast, 1983 was the Year of the King. That year, Stephen King fans were treated to not one, not two, but THREE adaptations of the author's work. The Dead Zone, Christine, and Cujo. Now common usage to explain a mean dog, Cujo had next to zero meaning to people who picked the book up ready to read King's first all out horror novel in years. Like Drew Barrymore in Firestarter, producers once again used ET as a stepping point, and plucked everyone's favorite mom Dee Wallace to star in a film about her and her son (Who's The Boss's Danny Pintauro) being terrorized by the film's title character. Listen in as Garrett, Matt, and Adam talk about the film many (King included) count as among their favorite adaptations of King's work. Will Adam think the same as, unsurprisingly, this is yet another first time viewing for him? And how did Garrett stumble upon the book, making it the first King novel he ever read? Find out by clicking below! And be sure to come back next week, as Matt finally gets to talk about Ah-nold Schwarzenegger when the co-hosts review the first Richard Bachman adaptation, The Running Man!

In this week's episode, Chris and Jay cover all the usual suspects — BJJ talk, fight world updates, and life off the mats.

Stephen King est sans conteste l'un des écrivains les plus prolifiques et influents de notre époque. Avec plus de 350 millions d'exemplaires vendus et une imagination débordante, il a su marquer la littérature contemporaine. Pourtant, il y a un roman dont il ne garde pratiquement aucun souvenir : Cujo.Publié en 1981, Cujo raconte l'histoire terrifiante d'un saint-bernard infecté par la rage qui sème la terreur. Un roman intense et angoissant, dont King lui-même admet ne pas se souvenir de l'écriture. La raison ? À cette époque, l'auteur était profondément dépendant à l'alcool et à la cocaïne. Dans son autobiographie Écriture : Mémoires d'un métier, il confesse que son addiction était si sévère qu'il retrouvait souvent son bureau jonché de canettes de bière vides et de mouchoirs tachés de sang, conséquence de son usage intensif de cocaïne. Ce mode de vie frénétique lui a permis d'écrire à un rythme effréné, mais au prix de souvenirs brumeux, voire inexistants, de certaines de ses œuvres.Mais ce n'est pas la seule anecdote surprenante concernant Stephen King. Parmi les faits les plus étonnants, on peut citer son refus initial de publier Carrie (1974), son tout premier roman. Frustré par le début de l'histoire, il jeta les premières pages à la poubelle. C'est sa femme, Tabitha King, qui les récupéra, le convainquant de poursuivre. Une décision qui changea sa vie : Carrie fut un succès retentissant, lançant définitivement sa carrière.Autre fait marquant : en 1999, King fut victime d'un grave accident. Alors qu'il marchait au bord d'une route dans le Maine, il fut percuté par un van conduit par un chauffard distrait. Grièvement blessé, il subit plusieurs opérations et faillit perdre l'usage d'une jambe. L'ironie du sort ? King racheta plus tard le véhicule qui l'avait percuté… pour le détruire.Enfin, si King est connu pour ses romans d'horreur, il a également écrit sous le pseudonyme de Richard Bachman. Pourquoi ? Il voulait savoir si son succès était dû à son talent ou simplement à son nom. Résultat ? Même sous un autre pseudonyme, ses livres se vendaient.Ainsi, malgré ses excès et ses démons, Stephen King demeure un maître du suspense et de l'horreur, capable de transformer ses épreuves en récits captivants.

The Year? 2025. Which is when Stephen King's novel The Running Man (published as written by Richard Bachman.) is set. People aren't currently being hunted for television, but we're only three days into this crapfest, so “there's still time”? This time out, Dave Sim and A Moment of Cerebus's Manly Matt Dow discuss: Dave remembers Cerebus fan Jeff Seiler which leads to Dave announcing Aardvark-Vanaheim's plans for 2025, first up (if Donald Trump doesn't crap all over Canada,) CAN11 and Narutobus on the Kickstarter! Did You Know?: Dave was in discussions to license/sell Cerebus to DC Comics in 1985. Dave reads the thirty-nine year old proposal (spoilers: he turned down $100,000. Then he self-distributed the collected High Society and made $150,000 a year later.) Now it CAN be told! DAVE screwed up your bookshelf... Cerebus continuity Matt's Steamboat Willie/Blade Runner mash-up (prints are coming soon?) Neal Adams and Creator's Rights 2025 Dave's thoughts on Deni Loubert and Cerebus in 1977 What does a normal day look like for Dave Sim? Why an Aardvark? Does Dave celebrate New Year's? Anniversary tours? A Cerebus bi-monthly spin-off book by other creators? Dave's thoughts on modern day Canadian life. The location and condition of Dave's Albatross notebooks (used in the creation of Cerebus from issues 20 through 300) (Trigger Warning for Margaret: it...it's not good...not good...) Who was Dave's model for F. Stop Kennedy in Going Home? (spoilers: it was F. Scott Fitzgerald.) Hoo-boy it's two hours fifty-six minutes of distraction from the fact that their gonna hunt you down for May sweeps!

This week we continue our Season King with one of Spike's favorite movies, "Misery." We discuss the book, originally planned to be a Richard Bachman written story. We then discuss Rob Reiner's direction and his respect for the genre film language. Finally, we discuss everything we love about this film, which is a lot! Lastly, we each pair the film with another for a pair of double bills. Thank you so much for listening!Created by Spike Alkire & Jake KelleyTheme Song by Breck McGoughFollow us on Instagram: @DoubleBillChillLetterboxd: FartsDomino44

This week marks our first foray into Stephen King's pseudonym, Richard Bachman, with "The Running Man." We begin the episode discussing Richard Bachman and why King felt it necessary to write under a different name. Then, we get into the history of the screen adaptation by covering the various directors who tried to make this work, and how Starsky (Paul Michael Glaser) saved the day. This is hardly a passion project, bu this movie is FUN! After we discuss the development of the film, we discuss the film itself including all of the over-the-top stalkers and of course Mick Fleetwood. We finish the episode by each pairing the film with another for a pair of solid double bills!Thank you so much for listening!Created by Spike Alkire & Jake KelleyTheme Song by Breck McGoughFollow us on Instagram: @DoubleBillChillLetterboxd: FartsDomino44

Acomi and Turk182 guzzle some Cadre Cola and send in their audition tapes for Climbing For Dollars just in time to catch the next episode of The Running Man (1987). A classic late 80s sci-fi movie, loosely based on Stephen King's (under the pseudonym Richard Bachman) short story. Having been framed for a massacre he didn't commit, former corporate police soldier Ben Richards breaks out of prison, and is on the run. He's soon captured and coerced into starring on the violent, and mostly unwinnable, TV show The Running Man. If he survives, he'll be a free man. But, TV ratings aren't earned by people surviving, the corporation will do everything to make sure he dies with the highest ratings. Join Acomi and Turk while they marvel and the 80s ladies and the over the top death sport villainy of "heroes". Not to mention, enough one-liners to make a whole other movie. Come on! Acomi and Turk don't want to be the only a-holes watching this movie. Acomi and Turk182, along the occasional special guest, provide running commentary of awfulsome movie and TV shows. The hosts select movies that either one, or both, have never seen. All jokes and comments are improvised. NO PREPARED JOKES OR COMMENTS! During recording, the movies are watched at a low volume and with the subtitles on. Viewers may want to turn subtitles on as well to enhance the viewing experience.

Based on the Richard Bachman book of the same name, 1987's The Running Man is a cheesy action spectacular with some of the all-timer Arnold Schwarzenegger one-liners. The movie bears very little resemblance to the book, however it remains one of the more prescient movies of the '80s.

En “Voces del Misterio” Nº 952, hablamos de los terrores que provocan las obras de Stephen King, hablamos de su inspiración, de lo que aterra, de hechos desconocidos e inéditos y mucho más. Stephen Edwin King, más conocido como Stephen King y ocasionalmente por su pseudónimo Richard Bachman, es un escritor estadounidense de novelas de terror, ficción sobrenatural, misterio, ciencia ficción y literatura fantástica.

The Running Man is one of the darker stories to escape the mind of Stephen King. Originally published under his pseudonym Richard Bachman, the story follows Ben Richards as he attempts to evade deadly stalkers in order to win a boatload of cash in order to save his sick family. The Arnold Schwarzenegger movie adaptation is pretty different, but both interpretations of the material ended up being strangely prescient.

Stephen King's alter ego, Richard Bachman, wrote a bunch of dark, cynical, and strangely prescient short novels before it was revealed that King was behind the pen name. At that point, King released them all in a collection called The Bachman Books, which featured the stories Rage, The Long Walk, Roadwork, and The Running Man. They're all fascinating looks into the darker corners of King's psyche and one of them was even allowed to fall out of circulation.

This week, we wrap up our coverage of Desperation and King's 1990s by taking a look at Richard Bachman's The Regulators, a weird little book that becomes fascinating when compared to it's sister novel.  Next week: We begin Stephen King's Duma Key! We'll be reading through Chapter 3!
