For a long time now, Matt and I have been wanting to do one massive retrospective that would seem to keep building and building to an unknown number. For awhile, it was looking like Marvel was going to be that series. But after Jack and company did their three hour show on it a couple years ago, that idea went out the door. So what could we do that would could take the place of what we originally had in mind? Enter the works of Stephen King. Often called a master of horror, sometimes called a trashy populist, there is no question that King has transcended horror, and made his own brand of fiction not only popular, but the most massively successful empire of published work of all time. But in order to review the entire run of King's film adaptations, we must first look at the very first published novel of King's career, and the films it inspired.
The Rage: Carrie 2 is more than a movie. To Matt and myself, it is the film which cemented us as forever podcast partners. How did this happen? And what does the director of the movie Katt Shea have to do with it all? That is just one of many sets of questions this version of the Aftertaste is going to answer. In addition, why the hell does a sequel to Brian DePalma's seminal 1976 film exist? And why was it released 26 years later?
Listen below to find out, and come back next week when we continue the first leg of Stephen King reviews when we look at the 2002 TV movie Carrie
The Rage: Carrie 2 (1999) (?/10, ?/10, ?/10)
