Revival with David Lowery

Episode 78,   Aug 11, 2021, 08:00 AM

The Green Knight and Pete's Dragon director David Lowery joins the boys to dissect one of King's most disturbing novels: Revival. It's the story of a lovely preacher who toys around with a secret electricity and tries to find out once and for all what's behind the veil of death. Spoiler alert: he doesn't like what he finds.

Lowery discusses the existential horror at hand and how he would approach this particular adaptation, including a somewhat controversial change to the novel.

As an added bonus, Vespe and Wampler spill a little bit on what Mike Flanagan's now scrapped Revival adaptation looked like, including some fascinating changes to the source material that would have absolutely killed had he gotten to make the movie.

All that and more in this week's episode!

It's not often Wampler and Vespe get to talk about a Stephen King book that doesn't have a movie adaptation, but in today's episode we get just that.
