Finishing out this leg of their look at Stephen King’s entire set of adaptations, the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast are looking at a film which features one of the popular author’s most recognizable villains. Before the book was even published, producer Richard Kobritz (Salem’s Lot) enlisted Halloween’s John Carpenter to come in and helm a film adaptation, to come out at the end of the year.

We have come to the third of a three part look at writer Stephen King’s book Different Seasons. And this podcast, which is a two plus hour look at Stand By Me, may be among our most emotional.
With a huge backstory to how the film got made, as well as stories galore about the four boys at the forefront of the film. How will Adam feel about this sentimental favorite after seeing it for the first time? Has time been good to it...

Disclaimer: A word of warning up front. This podcast deals with some content that just may not be suitable for most. Things like a kid getting leered at while sleeping and of course, all things the director of Apt Pupil allegedly did to his mostly young cast get discussed in harrowing and disgusting detail.
Listener discretion is strongly advised.

Now that The Dark Tower is out of the way, it’s time to dive into perhaps author Stephen King’s most well regarded book of stories -or novellas- Different Seasons. But before we get to Apt Pupil and Stand By Me, we review the adaptation of the first story in the volume, a little film called The Shawshank Redemption.
With Rob Reiner (eventually) giving first time feature director Frank Darabont the chance to adapt the s...

After a few months away from his crazy imagination, it’s time for the Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast to return to the world of Stephen King. And what a doozy to start this leg of adaptations, as in 2017 screenwriter Alivia Goldman and producer Ron Howard brought King’s seven plus Dark Tower book series to the screen!
Widely criticized as being one of the worst adaptations ever put to screen, the movie nonetheles...

You know how sometimes while reviewing Joe Hill’s father and his adaptations we say we wonder when he will run out of inanimate things that are evil? For example, a linen folding machine shows there is no limit to how vast Stephen King’s imagination can take him. However, we’ll get back to him soon. Now, we are reviewing a movie that was spawned much the same way King came up with The Mangler. Hill phoned Scott De...

With a successful television show and a string of TV movies The Incredible Hulk proved to be a hugely rewarding experience for Bill Bixby. So it’s understandable that he was apprehensive about finally putting the character to bed. In fact, all reports are that he didn’t want to fully put it to bed. We get into that on this podcast.
But before that happens, David Banner finds himself mixed up with spies, with nary a Jac...

After The Incredible Hulk Returns was a ratings success, actor/director Bill Bixby seemed justified in wanting to bring the big green monster back. But he wanted more.
Enter The Trial of the Incredible Hulk. This time, Bixby had Daredevil and a John Rhys Davies played Kingpin in tow. Though now, a big black bat played by Michael Keaton was fixing to come to the big screen a month after this film was broadcast. Could Bixby and com...

Five years after The Incredible Hulk TV show was canceled by CBS, Bill Bixby wanted more. But original creator Kenneth Johnson had moved on to direct Short Circuit 2, so Bixby was left to guide the project by himself.
But a move to NBC, as well as a changeover to Roger Corman’s production company New World, meant that Bixby could be do things his way. And in 1988, The Incredible Hulk did indeed return in the aptly titled The...

To begin things, Matt, Garrett, and Adam review the 1977 pilot to the TV show many credit for making Marvel comics viable on television. DC had Batman and Wonder Woman. Marvel had H...

In the tradition of Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street, producers said t wait long to green light a sequel once 2022’s Scream was a certified hit. Sure enough, a script was churned out that put a whole new spin on the Friday the 13th Part VIII Jason Takes Manhattan. Let’s just call it, Scream Takes Manhattan.
But, as with all Scream productions, there were problems. Not the least of which was Scream mainstay...

In 2011, it was not good luck to wait 11 years to bring the band back together and do another Scream film. Scream 4 lost money, and plans to continue that trilogy went by the wayside.
Flash forward another 11 years. 2022 brought back key players like David Arquette and Neve Campbell, while ushering in a new batch of kids. But without Kevin Williamson writing the script, and new series scribes/directors Radio Silence taking the hel...

Eleven years after the release of Scream 3, producers were ready to try again. Though the difference is this time, they didn’t have too many schedules to work around. Everyone from Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette, not to mention director Wes Craven, had nothing else going on and were ready to play in the Scream sandbox again.
Though Craven did have some some standards. If he was coming back, Kevin Williamson ...

With Scream 2 in the foreground after certifying the series as a franchise, it would seem that everyone associated with the horror films had better things to do than come back for its (at the time) swan song. Specifically, star Neve Campbell and director Wes Craven. Campbell was working on Party of Five and a film called Drowning Mona. And Craven wanted to wade his way through the horror ghetto to do the Meryl Streep starring Music...

As much as the first Scream lovingly poked the bear that was the 80s slasher genre, they played right into the same sensibilities those franchises did, as a sequel came out less than a year after the original was released to surprise success. It took a couple weeks to catch on. But once 1996’s Scream gathered the best word of mouth since Pulp Fiction from a couple years before, it sure didn’t take long for a sequel to g...
