It-Part One (Re-Release)

To celebrate the upcoming release of It, I'm re-releasing my reviews of King's masterpiece.  Enjoy! From the original episode description: In 1986, the master of horror released the novel worthy of his title.  This novel reflected many of the themes, characters, and story beats that he had introduced in his earlier novels and stands as his ultimate thesis of the horror genre.  More importantly, it is the pinnacle of coming of age stories, a tale that places childhood friends at the center of a cosmic conflict, and only through the power of friendship can we overcome our fears.  If that doesn't speak to Mr. King's sensibilities, I don't know what does.  Oh, and it has a scary clown!  Ladies and gentlemen, I hope that you packed your bags, because we will be spending the next month in Derry, Maine, home of Pennywise The Dancing Clown.  Enjoy your stay, and keep away from the drains, the canal and the Barrens.  You'll never know what you might find there.  Or what might find you. . .

Episode 165-Mr. Mercedes, Episode 1-2

I have long been on record as a critic of King's Mr. Mercedes trilogy.  So when I heard that David E. Kelly was making a television based on this property, I was less than interested.  Now that I've watched two episodes of this series, how do I feel about Bill, Brady, Jerome and the gang?  Tune in and find out!

Episode 164-Interview With Matt Kellick (Ka-Tet 19)

Hello, everyone!  In this week's episode, I take a break from analysis to have a conversation with Matt Kellick, the owner of http://www.ka-tet19.net.  During the hour long conversation, we talk about art, creativity and how he merged his passion for t-shirts and Stephen King into a business. I've plugged his stuff on the show for the last few months, and it was a great experience to talk to him about his art, his background and what he has in store for us next! WARNING: During the course of the conversation, Matt and I spoil the events of Stephen King novels, including the plot points of The Dark Tower series.
