Stephen King's THE SKELETON CREW from 1985 was a highly regarded collection of short stories and one novella that he collected together as a major release. The book has had a few of the stories made into film. One of them, THE MONKEY (2025), was just released to theaters only a week or two ago as this is written. After THE MIST, it is possibly the most famous of the tales in the book as the original hardcover had a picture of the drumming monkey toy that the story and movie is about.From IMDB: When twin brothers Bill and Hal find their father's old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths start. The siblings decide to throw the toy away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years.The film is directed and written by the highly prolific Osgood Perkins. The film stars Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, and Colin O'Brien. Receiving positive reviews, the movie has gone on to make back its $10M USD budget and more. Your cohosts take a look at the movie and give their thoughts.

Today we discuss a horror movie that surprised BOTH of us in the beginning of 2025 "The Monkey" The Monkey is a 2025 American comedy horror film written and directed by Osgood Perkins. Based on Stephen King's 1980 short story, the film stars Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Christian Convery, Colin O'Brien, Rohan Campbell, Sarah Levy, Adam Scott, and Elijah Wood. It follows twin brothers whose lives are turned upside down by a cursed toy monkey that causes random horrific deaths around them. Wanna ask us something?!?

For a movie whose tagline is "Everybody dies. And that's F#$*ed up.", is it cynical? Or, is a little heart tossed in with this horror comedy? Also, and perhaps most importantly... is it funny? Tune in to find out!Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 28-minutes discussing Longlegs, Osgood Perkins' 2024 satanic-panic horror-thriller cop drama, and ponder how it stands with his other films, if it exceeded the hype, and how Melvin compares it to The Blackcoat's Daughter, one of his favorite movies. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)It's premise is simple, and it's idea is absurd, lending itself to an easily digest horror/comedy.Everything in the film is in service of jokes.The industry is timid around horror/comedy films, but a film with a reasonable budget offers a lot of opportunity.This is Osgood Perkins' first movie with a male-led cast, and the two explore his representation of gender across his filmography.Chuckling over silly deaths.Amidst all the comedy, Osgood Perkins' still makes sure to add a level of heart the film needs to give it decent pacing, both in its metatext as he processes grief and literally as the film showcases a throughline regarding generational trauma.Talking about the ending, and how you can read into the drama if you want.Recommendations:The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams (2010) (Book)@Niall.Breen.Comics (Instagram) Support the showSupport on Patreon for Unique Perks!

With a stacked cast—including Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, and Elijah Wood—this horror-comedy attempts to bring King's chilling short story to life. But does it succeed, or does the cymbal-banging terror lose its rhythm?We break down the film's tonal shifts, its blend of horror and comedy, and whether the changes from King's original story enhance or dilute the scares. While Perkins leans into a darkly humorous approach, does it undercut the horror? And does The Monkey justify its feature-length runtime, or does it stretch a simple concept too far?Join us as we analyze where The Monkey lands—does it deliver the frights, or is this one toy best left collecting dust?In this episode we are joined by Brandon from Haunted US.

This week, after a long month of lists, recaps, and Oscar nominated heavy hitters, we lighten the mood with the gory, splatter-filled Stephen King adaptation of The Monkey. Oz Perkins' second film in a year, The Monkey stars both Theo James and Christian Convery in dual roles, Tatiana Maslany, Colin O'Brien, Adam Scott, and Elijah Wood. Does Perkins follow up last summer's Longlegs with a potent mashup of Final Destination and Stephen King? Or does this horror comedy fizzle out?

Welcome back to the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast! In this episode, we take a deep dive into the creepy world of horror films featuring murderous, malevolent creatures—be they possessed toys or a rampaging primate. The Monkey (2025) Osgood Perkins takes on Stephen King's short story in this chilling new horror film starring Theo James in a dual role as twin brothers haunted by a cursed toy monkey. Every time the monkey is wound up, gruesome deaths follow. With a stellar supporting cast that includes Tatiana Maslany, Adam Scott, and Elijah Wood, The Monkey brings a mix of supernatural horror and psychological tension. We break down how this adaptation stacks up against other Stephen King films and whether it delivers on its eerie premise. Demonic Toys (1992) Before The Monkey, the killer toy subgenre was already alive and well with Demonic Toys, a campy horror flick from Full Moon Features. The film follows a police officer trapped in a warehouse with sinister, possessed toys—including the horrifying Baby Oopsie Daisy and the deadly Grizzly Teddy. How does this low-budget horror flick hold up over 30 years later? We revisit the fun, the frights, and the absurdity. Shakma (1990) What's more terrifying than a haunted toy? How about an out-of-control, enraged baboon? Shakma is a lesser-known cult classic in which medical students are hunted by a rabid primate inside a research facility. It's a wild, chaotic, and absolutely bizarre horror-thriller. We discuss whether Shakma is a hidden gem or just another cheesy ‘90s horror flick. Join us as we dissect these horror films, share our thoughts on killer monkeys and possessed toys, and, of course, rant about the state of modern horror.

Are you scared of toy monkeys? Should you be? Listen/watch our review of The Monkey (2025) to find out. Synopsis When twin brothers Bill and Hal discover a treasure trove of souvenirs in their absentee father's closet, they find a toy drumming monkey. Soon they discover that whenever they turn it's key, a horrific death occurs in their vicinity. After inadvertently killing a loved one, they decide to hide the monkey down a well to protect others. Two decades later Hal discovers that the monkey is killing again, and he must track down the Monkey and stop it with his teen son. Review This film is Osgood Perkins followup to Longlegs and is an adaptation of a Stephen King short story. I didn't know what to think going into it. The trailer had a a strong sense of dark humor, but since Perkins' other films didn't rely on humor as much, I wasn't sure if he could deliver. But deliver he did. This fast paced death fest is fueled by a great script full of dry dialogue as a counterpoint to the absurdity of the plot. It's like a cross between Final Destination movies and Dragnet. Theo James does the heavy lifting as the hapless Hal being tortured by not only The Monkey, but also by almost everyone he meets. His resigned everyman is the perfect straight man for the insanity happening around him. The insanity takes the form of crazy, over the top deaths that are served in a steady drip line throughout the movie. It's got decapitations, explosions, trampling, and more. Score 9/10

Earth's Mightiest Critics don't toy around--even when reviewing Osgood Perkins' The Monkey!In this (very loose) adaptation of a short story from Stephen King's Skeleton Crew collection, Theo James plays twin brothers Hall and Bill, who, as children, discovered a cursed monkey toy in a closet. When winding the gold key in its back, the spooky little novelty beats its drum...and someone dies!

I had finally saw the scary movie of The Monkey Theo James.

"Everybody dies. Some of us peacefully and in our sleep, and some of us... horribly. And that's life." 

How do you follow a film like Longlegs, the chilling riff on serial killer thrillers that became one of the cult smashes of 2024? The answer, if you're acclaimed writer-director Osgood Perkins, is to first swap out the pressure-cooker dread of that breakout hit. Next, add a cursed toy monkey. Then, harvest the wildest, darkest parts of your imagination for some of the most gruesome demises ever seen on screen. And finally, package all of the above into an existentialist comedy about embracing death. The result is The Monkey – a Stephen King adaptation inspired by the literary icon's 1980 short story of the same name, but very much a work of Oz's own invention.From the moment a flamethrower-wielding Adam Scott opens the film with a maniacal cameo, screaming as he scorches everything in his path, it's clear the movie is operating on a different tonal plane to Longlegs. But make no mistake, The Monkey is just as personal to Oz as that film and others before it, like The Blackcoat's Daughter and 2016's I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House. Perhaps, in fact, even more so. As Oz explains in this moving spoiler conversation, the film is a meditation on death because death is something he's experienced up close in the most unimaginably tragic circumstances; on September 12 1992, his father, Psycho actor Anthony Perkins, died of AIDS-related pneumonia at his home in Los Angeles. Almost exactly nine years later, his mother, the actress and photographer Berry Berenson, was aboard American Airlines Flight 11 when it was hijacked by terrorists and flown into the North Tower of the World Trade Centre, on September 11, 2001. The Monkey, he says, features Theo James playing two roles as twin brothers Hal and Bill, because “that's my life,” as he puts it. He and his own brother Elvis Perkins, an acclaimed musician, became “buried in the rubble of the tragedy” of their mother's death on 9/11 and emerged with “differences more apparent than ever.” In the conversation you're about to hear, Oz tells us the extent to which the movie helped reconcile some of the feelings towards his brother. Al asks him about the ending of the film, which involves a plane crash – a very emotionally-loaded image, given his tragic family history.  And he shares why accepting death is the only true way to find peace.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

On this episode, Matt & Eric review Osgood Perkins' The Monkey starring Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Christian Convery, Colin O'Brien, Rohan Campbell, Sarah Levy, Adam Scott and Elijah Wood.

Can you hear that? It's the sound of a demonic monkey drumming up death and quite possibly the most fun you'll have in a theater all year. In this episode of The Discourse, host Mike DeAngelo sits down with writer-director Osgood Perkins to discuss his latest film, "The Monkey"—a twisted and darkly comedic horror adaptation of Stephen King's short story. The film follows twin brothers Bill and Hal who, as kids, stumble upon their father's old monkey toy in the attic. What follows is a series of gruesome deaths seemingly connected to the cursed object. Years later, after growing apart, the brothers are forced back together when the monkey resurfaces, bringing more chaos in its wake. The cast includes Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Elijah Wood, Rohan Campbell, and Colin O'Brien.

The Monkey Movie Review | Very Devious!#themonkey #themonkeymovie #theojames We discuss the new film from Osgood Perkins The Monkey which is based on a short story by Stephen King. The film stars Theo James as twin brothers dealing with a murderous monkey.

King drops some news about his current novel, The Talisman 3, and fields a variety of questions ranging from the adaptations of his work (stuff like the upcoming The Life of Chuck, The Long Walk, and The Monkey, and classics like Cujo and Maximum Overdrive) to nerdy deep dives into his craft, his relationship with Tabby, the new Holly Gibney novel coming this May called Never Flinch, Mike Flanagan, and just what the hell is up with all the corn in his work. This episode is sponsored by Neon's The Monkey, an adaptation of King's short story of the same name directed by Osgood Perkins (Longlegs), and starring Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, and Elijah Wood, coming to theaters February 21st.
