On this episode we talk about a book adaptation that was an oscar winner and one of the only Stephen King movies that stood the test of time! Starring Kathy Bates and James Caan, this is the story of a writer who got into a car accident and was saved, coincidently enough, by his number one fan; this episode is all about Misery!

Paul Sheldon (Caan) has just finished the last novel in his Misery series when his car skids off the road, Annie (bates) serendipitously fins him in a snow bank and nurses him back to health! Some sinister history raises its head though when the new book is discivered to be the last in the series and Annie forces Sheldon to write more 'Misery' books!

Johnny from Disaster Artists podcast and I chat about this classic King adaptation and how other movies form the mans mind have fallen short! We also discuss the subtleties that this movie has, compared with more modern fare. The alternative casting for this could surprise you and there is talk of the stage show and possibly a remake for all these low budget King films! This one is a must watch movie!
