Thinner with Dave Schilling
Episode 32, Nov 11, 2020, 12:00 PM
Dave Schilling, the very funny host of the Full Court Chat podcast, joins Vespe and Wampler to discuss Stephen King/Richard Bachman's Thinner and the roundly unpleasant 1996 film adapted from it. The boys look at the movie both from a nostalgic point of view and then through the harsh lens of 2020 as discussion ranges from terrible fat suits to the very un-PC nature of the story to a debate over which curse featured in this story is the worst and so much more.
The pleasant memory of this movie was all but destroyed on the rewatch leading up to this episode. The boys are joined by Full Court Chat's Dave Schilling to examine one of King's bleakest and meanest stories and the resulting misfire of a film.
