Summary

This episode, the Spoop Bois Derek and Aaron tackle 1990's psychological thriller film "Misery" directed by Rob Reiner and adapted from Stephen King's 1987 book of the same name. They discuss the idea of toxic fandom under the modern lens, the positive change of expanding the sheriff's story, and the wonderful balance of dread and dark comedy. They also get into the casting that led to the amazing performances, why this should be considered a horror movie, the tone of violence in the film vs the book, and many other aspects of the film. Aaron and Derek will take good care of you.
