Return To BOP's Lot: The Worst Of King



We've talked about a lot of good Stephen King movies on Box Office Pulp, but tonight we want to tell you about the ones that weren't so good. A lot of other podcasts have made fun of these, and we finally decided that if you want something done right... you ought to do it yourself. So join the BOP Crew as they reminisce about a childhood wasted waiting for The Langoliers to eat that airport, Matthew Mcconaughey's leisurely stroll toward The Dark Tower, the tremendous lasting impact Maximum Overdrive has somehow had on American culture, and the sinister storefront where each item comes at a terrible cost... boredom. When the dust clears, paper will have been torn, Tommyknockers will have Tommyknocked, and Cody will have been forever entangled in the nightmare that is... the Dreamcatcher.

BOP's Lot: The Best of Stephen King

The author from Maine strode across the silver screen, and the BOP Crew followed. Not, like, in a stalker way or anything, we just-- it's a podcast, okay? And in honor of this year's love affair with the man, we're spotlighting the legend, inspiration, and goddamn industry that is Stephen King! People (mainly us) have gushed about The Shining and IT aplenty, but what about the lesser-known cinematic gems from the most-adapted author since God? Listen to Cody Flagg, Mike Renfield, and It Was Always Meant To Be Jamie as they revisit the time two masters of horror gave us the love story of a boy and his Plymouth; a tale of revenge from beyond the grave from the man who resurrected Jason; the only Rob Reiner movie more upsetting than North; the evilest of fucking rooms, and more!

IT: CHAPTER 2

Beep Beep, folks! The BOP Crew is floating their way on back to Derry to fulfill a blood oath. A blood oath to... to talk about movies. We take talking about movies very seriously, all right!? But regardless, we find ourselves collectively at the conclusion of the horror juggernaut that is Stephen King's clown-tastic, IT CHAPTER 2! Andy Muschietti takes on the Herculean task of providing a satisfying end to a story that generally... is not known for having a satisfying ending. After crafting a masterpiece with Chapter 1, is he able to land safely, or is there Langoliers-sized turbulence? Join Mike, Cody, and the great cosmic Turtle in this dead lights deep dive!

Mini BOP - PET SEMETARY (2019)

Follow us to the sacred place. No, folks, this ain't a dream, and you can't escape! The moon is full and the air is still, and we are just covered in undead cat hair. Which can only mean one thing... dead really is better. But so is BOP! In this episode, Mike and Cody exhume themselves for a chat on the new adaptation of Stephen King's darkest work: PET SEMETARY. We discuss the impressive changes from the source, how it captures King's themes, some spooktastic atmospheres, and difficulties in translating the book's particular brand of unsettling to the big screen. But, most importantly, we learn that we all could use a little more Wendigo in our lives. Open your hearts, people!

THE SHINING Commentary Track (European Cut)

Want some ice cream, Doc? No? Well, how about a BOP 'n A Movie feature commentary for Stanley Kubrick's horror masterpiece, THE SHINING! Also, no? Well, screw you, psychic kid, you're getting it anyway! For this one, the Crew heads to the secluded Overlook Hotel to get some deep cut film analysis done over the winter season, but per-usual, ghosts compel them to kill each other instead. It happens. But when not CORRECTING one another with an axe to the sternum, they do delve into things like the philosophy of horror, how exactly a director drives Olive Oyl to lose all her hair, which character's secret pimp coat may finally provide answers, and so much more! Oh, and Cody points out flags. Ride the blood elevator down and get lost in a hedge maze of impossibility with us on this one, folks. Just be wary, because all work and no play makes Box Office Pulp go... something, something...

Why, dear listeners, you've always been downloading this commentary... right... here.

DISCLAIMER: Due to error on Netflix's (and our) part, this commentary is for the EUROPEAN CUT of the film, which runs about 23 minutes shorter. Apologies for the inconvenience.
