    In new HBO prequel series IT: Welcome to Derry, we return to the clown who keeps on giving. Based on the Stephen King novel and a prequel to the films It (2017) and It Chapter Two (2019), the show finds a whole new crop of kids being terrorized by whatever lives underneath their little town in Maine. And at the nearby military base, some of the local adults are acting pretty sketchy, too. There is a lot going on and a lot of it is very bloody. Bill Skarsgård returns as Pennywise, but be patient since it takes a while to lay eyes on him.To access bonus episodes and sponsor-free listening for Pop Culture Happy Hour, subscribe to Pop Culture Happy Hour+ at plus.npr.org/happy.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

    For Halloween, the crew goes into Maximum Overdrive, Stephen King's one-and-only directorial meltdown brought to you by a truly 1980's amount of cocaine.  Angry trucks, possessed toasters, and for the love of god, will someone please tell AC/DC to shut directly the eff up. Somewhere between exploding drawbridges and the Green Goblin semi grinning like a maniac, the chaos starts to feel almost profound.  Almost. We talk killer vending machines, sleazy Bible salesmen, and the mystery of why a comet's “space fart” would make a lawnmower homicidal.  It's a glorious junkyard of blood, beer, and bad decisions held together by pure noise and misplaced confidence. By the end, one truth remains: this isn't a movie to rewatch alone. It's a social event, best shared with chemical assistance.  Consider it practice for when the machines rise up.  You'll want someone nearby to confirm that, yes, it's really happening. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091499/

General Shaw seems to know more than anyone about the nature of IT . But here's what matters: Pennywise / IT manipulates everyone. Lily got gaslit by police. Adults refused to believe her.

    Horror from the High Desert

    For all of you staying in and curling up by the fire on this Halloween night, why don't you cue up this interview with author John Collins? He comes onto the podcast to talk to Scotty about his novella "The Leeds Point Horror" (2025, Alien Buddha Press), and they have a wide-ranging conversation about influences from Stephen King, "Jaws," splatterpunk, classic 1950s pulp fiction, and more. John discusses his initial dreams of being a movie effects artist and his subsequent transition into writing fiction. They also talk about "breaking rules" in their writing, tackling "taboo" subjects, and the tricky notion of "going too far." They close out the episode by taking a look at director David Slade's underrated but effective 2023 adaptation of Norman Partridge's Bram Stoker Award-winning novel "Dark Harvest."

Finally, the duo goes all-in on horror remakes — debating which ones nailed it, which ones butchered it, and why Hollywood just can't stop resurrecting these remakes.

    Fifty years after publication, Salem's Lot stands as a pinnacle of modern vampire fare and a shining example of literary small town life. In the latest episode of Bloody FM's The Losers' Club podcast, co-hosts Jenn Adams, Rachel Reeves, and Dan Pfleegor return to this infamous town to uncover its many dark secrets. Does Ben Mears stand as an early proxy for King or does teacher Matt Burke more successfully fit the bill? Would they prefer Jimmy Cody's originally planned death and is young Mark Petrie too good to be true? They'll answer these questions and more while discussing the novel's many nerve-shattering moments and exploring one of King's most frightening towns. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    RHLSTP Book Club #158 - Saltwash - Richard talks to award-winning author Andrew Michael Hurley about his latest book, Saltwash. Is it horror or literary fiction? is it important for people writing about dark subjects to have three names? What attracted Andrew to writing about dilapidated seaside resorts - and has he ever been to Weston-super-Mare? How does he make his novels so atmospheric? What's it like getting a quote from Stephen King? Plus Andrew's remarkable leap to success (after only ten years of work) and how a 300 book print run led to a hugely successful first novel, Richard reveals how little he knows about Gothic novels (or what they even are), how we are all haunted by the mistakes we've made in life and how the contemplation of our own mortality can drive so much of our lives. Does writing a creepy book mean you can't escape the subject in your downtime?

    Zo once visited a small town in Maine called Tarker's Mills. It was a quaint little place and extremely pleasant. Then, the murders started happening, once a month. It was the craziest thing that Zo had ever heard of happening in a small town. Also, he heard that the victims weren't stabbed, beaten or shot . . . they were torn apart! Whoever this crazy murderer was they seem to have a werewolf fetish. The attacks only seem to happen during a full moon. Before Zo high tailed out of that town he considered that maybe someone should shoot it with a Silver Bullet . . . for symbolic purposes (of course). Episode Chapters00:02:44 Opening Credits for Stephen King's Silver Bullet starring Gary Busey, Everett McGill, Corey Haim and Megan Follows00:10:38 Favorite Parts of the 1985 film Stephen King's Silver Bullet  00:49:13 Trivia from the religious horror Stephen King's Silver Bullet  00:58:58 Critics' Thoughts on Daniel Attias' Stephen King's Silver Bullet  Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.

First, The Shining came out in 1980, but King didn't publish the sequel – Doctor Sleep – until more than 30 years later. In a 2013 interview, the author spoke with NPR's David Greene about revisiting his iconic characters. Then, King and his son Owen co-wrote Sleeping Beauties after Owen approached his father with an idea for the book's premise. In today's episode, we revisit a 2017 conversation between the father-son duo and NPR's Mary Louise Kelly.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Roxy Striar, Tara Erickson & Andrew Gordon react to Episode 2 of IT: Welcome to Derry—titled “The Thing in the Dark” (Season 1, Ep 2) — the chilling continuation of the prequel horror series set in 1962 Derry, Maine. In this episode, the fallout from the disturbing events at the movie theatre deepens: Charlotte Hanlon (Taylour Paige – The Toxic Avenger, Maestro) and her husband Leroy Hanlon (Jovan Adepo – Babylon, Creed II) face growing tensions as they settle into Derry, while Lilly Bainbridge (Clara Stack – series newcomer) contends with her terrifying vision of Matty's disappearance. Meanwhile, the sinister presence of Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård – Barbarian, Hemlock Grove) looms ever-closer, lurking beneath the surface of “everybody knows your name.” With its layered horror, socio-historical background, and creeping dread, Episode 2 amplifies the fear of what lies beneath the town's veneer—and sets the stage for the next chapter in this terrifying prequel saga.

    BOO! It is back. Well… not Pennywise, not yet. But if the first and last ten minutes of this new Stephen King prequel series teach us anything, it's that you don't need Bill Skarsgård to show Derry, Maine as a full-blown nexus of evil. Kids should probably skip this one, but fans of horror should not. On the podcast, we break down the 53-minute pilot: plot points, expectations, standout moments, comparisons, reception, and the weird trivia we picked up along the way. I'll say right off the bat, between The Music Man and the show's heavy reliance on turtles, it had me from the jump.

    Today I'm breaking down one of the most enigmatic endings in horror film history! The ending of The Shining isn't just about madness, ghosts, or cabin fever; it's about consumption. The Overlook Hotel doesn't merely haunt its guests; it devours them. By the time Jack Torrance swings his axe through the snow-covered halls, he's no longer a man losing control. He's a man who's been completely absorbed by the building itself, body and soul. That's the real horror of The Shining: evil doesn't simply kill you, it keeps you.

    Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie directors! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between.  Today we discuss David Cronenberg, one of the truly great Canadian geniuses and the filmmaker credited with the advent of “body horror” (a distinction he bristles against, for what it's worth). Our B-Sides today include Fast Company, The Brood, M. Butterfly, and Spider. Our guest today is the incomparable Veronica Fitzpatrick, professor at Brown University and Editor-at-Large and Podcast Co-Host at Bright Wall/Dark Room.  We talk about how handsome Oliver Reed is in The Brood, how Cronenberg's films often start with a bang, how misguided M. Butterfly is, and how Fast Company was, in fact, a movie directed by David Cronenberg. There's talk of his novel Consumed, his multiple collaborations with certain great performers like Jeremy Irons, and his incredible, intellectual mind. This is a man who has adapted Stephen King, William Burroughs, Don DeLillo, J.G. Ballard, and Patrick McGrath. What range! There's the real-life French diplomat on which M. Butterfly is based, as well as the metatextual nature of both Cronenberg's adaptation of David Henry Hwang and his later picture A Dangerous Method. It's Cronenberg taking stock of the psychology of his own films! Fascinating. Veronica mentions B.D. Wong's Tony speech, we all marvel at the fact that Adrian Lyne remade Lolita (with Jeremy Irons!) in 1997 and it barely got a release! There's a lot in here! Happy Halloween!

    Happy almost Halloween, Epic listeners! Welcome, welcome, welcome to TICKLED TO DEATH! The horror movie game show where the screams are fake, but the laughs are real. In this episode, Roz Hernandez takes us deep into the chilling world of Stephen King. From the haunted halls of The Shining to Carrie's bloody prom, IT's sewer-dwelling Pennywise, and the cursed ground of Pet Sematary, our guests battle through trivia and ridiculous games to see who will survive as the Final Ghoul. Joining the madness are critic BJ Colangelo (This Ends at Prom), filmmaker Michael Varrati (Midnight Mass), and actor Sarah Seeds, ready to test their King knowledge and their nerves. It's a mix of spooky trivia, unhinged improv, and a whole lot of laughs. Don't get tickled to death. Hosted by comedian and horror fanatic Roz Hernandez (Ghosted!, Hulu's Living for the Dead), Tickled to Death is the comedy game show that mixes scary movie trivia with off-the-wall improv and ridiculous challenges. Each week, Roz and a rotating cast of actors, comedians, and horror experts dive into iconic horror movies and cult classics, competing to see who will survive as the Final Ghoul.

    Time for another Halloween week Nightmare Fuel! This one is from this past May. And in it, we head to Upstate New York's Woodhull Mountain, where Gabe and Hassan see a very strangely placed house on the side of the hill while out on a hike. When Gabe enters the house, he leaves behind our world, and enters a space outside of it - a dark and mysterious space dedicated mostly... to pain.  Hope you like it!This episode was scored by Logan Keith. We recommend listening with headphones to experience the full effect of all the creepy background noises.

    This isn't a mistake, meatsacks! I've been wanting to show you some of the new fictional content I've been working on for awhile now. And the week of Halloween seemed like a great time to do it. This week, I'll be sharing five of my favorite Nightmare Fuels with you here on the Timesuck feed, staring with this story I wrote back in March. It's 1989 and a pawn shop owner has found some chilling home video footage of two film students investigating an urban legend set inside a local abandoned insane asylum.
