This week, we’re talking about The Monkey (Hulu), the totally unhinged horror comedy from Oz Perkins and Stephen King.
We kick things off the episode with a quick, spoiler-free review of Together, now in theaters
But first, we kick things off with a spoiler-free review of the movie everyone is talking about — Weapons (0:07). It’s wild, it’s brutal, and it might just be the best horror film of the year.
Then, we get into The Monkey (09:18) — adapted from Stephen King’s short story, this is the polar opposite of Perkins’ last feature, Longlegs. Instead of slow-burn dread, we get full-on Looney Tunes kills, and a demonic drum-playing toy monkey you’ll never forget.
We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (01:36:24).
In the meantime, let us know your thoughts about The Monkey, and don't forget to like & subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!
