Finding Stephen King in The Shed
Added 2020-09-01 20:05:49 +0000 UTCIn this Patreon-exclusive, the Losers are joined by The Shed director/writer Frank Sabatella and producer Peter Block, who just so happen to be die-hard Constant Readers. Of course, that shouldn't be too surprising, seeing how their latest gem for Shudder is chock full of influences straight out of King's Dominion. Join the chat for some great insights into King's work, particularly why the small town setting is so essential and timeless.

I feel a little bad not liking this movie after hearing the interview because the guys seem to really be passionate about the project and seem to really care. But the movie is, to put it bluntly, a mess. I especially have problems with the writing it just feels overstuffed with ideas and nothing is explored, or fleshed out, as far as the central conceit of bullying and abuse. It's surface level things about it without delving deeper. I think they just tried to do too much. I think if they focused on one aspect of bullying and made it a smaller movie, it could have really been good. Great interview with the Shed Boys though!
