Now displaying: Category: Stephen King
Apr 25, 2018

Welcome to my new bi-monthly show! Running alongside Watching Robocop, this show will invite creative types - authors, bloggers, podcasters, film makers, and more - to talk about Stephen King's IT, and the two cinematic adaptations of the book.

And for the debut episode, I am delighted to welcome back to the show George Lea. George is a superb horror author, blogger, cultural critic and thinker, and has previously guested on the show to watch both Robocop and Hellbound: Hellraiser II. In a free-flowing, conversational show, highlights include;

 

  • Is IT the real monster? Or would that be Derry?
  • Why large sections of the book are unfilmable
  • Issues with 2017's movie portrayal of Bev (even though the movie was good)
  • The awful humanity of King's human monsters
  • Nihilism and the nature of God
  • George's favourite Loser

 

And so much more. Enjoy.

George's Youtube channel is here, and his blog is here.
