Welcome to Not Scared: A Horror Movie Podcast, where I talk people about their favorite horror movies and why they are special.
This episode is near and dear to my heart because I get to talk to my very best friend about one of our formative childhood movies, the 2002 miniseries Rose Red. During my chat with Bree Tighe (no relation to Kevin), we cover how the movie was almost directed by Speilberg, Stephen King miniseries in general, shipping Ellen and Sukeena, and why you should never get iced tea in the middle of the night (aside from the caffeine).
00:00:00- Introduction / Background / How We First Saw This Movie
00:11:30- Synopsis / Character Discussion
00:23:30- Favorite Set Pieces / Moments / The House Itself
01:01:00- Early 2000’s Horror Landscape / Double Feature Ideas / Outro
