The Stephen King birthday tribute concludes with a bizarre and hilarious finale! For their last King review of the month, The Filmlosophers—Hosts Eddie and Spencer, and Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy—are boarding a flight straight into the wonderfully strange world of the 1995 made-for-TV miniseries, "The Langoliers."
The crew will bravely dissect this lesser-celebrated adaptation, exploring its ambitious premise, its infamously low-budget visual effects, and its utterly confounding storyline involving literal time-eating monsters. Get ready for a discussion that will cover everything from terrible CGI to the existential terror of a silent, abandoned Bangor International Airport.
But before the time-eaters arrive, Amy has a major announcement! She's debuting a new segment within her "Jane Unseen" series: "Streaming is For Lovers!" Amy will pitch the team some genuinely under-the-radar romantic comedies that are original to various streaming platforms, and the crew will vote on which one they'll watch together for a future review.
Join us for an show that closes out their King celebration with a laugh and opens up a new, surprisingly tender chapter for their cinematic viewing habits!
So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and tune in to this week's “sky-high” of an episode of The Filmlosophers!
