Episode Sixty Eight-The Night Flier
In this week's review, I look at a little known Stephen King adaptation of a short story from his Nightmares and Dreamscapes publication, the Miguel Ferrer-starring vehicle: The Night Flier. Starring Lloyd Henries himself, the classic character actor, Miguel Ferrer, we follow the escapades of sleazy tabloid reporter Richard Dees as he tries to track down the killer of a series of airport murders. Will he find the Night Flier? Will you stick around until the end of the movie to find out? Did I? Listen to this week's review for all of my thoughts on this little gem!

Episode Sixty Seven-Nightmares and Dreamscapes
For me, Nightmares and Dreamscapes was Stephen King's first new book that he published after I had become a Stephen King fan. I distinctly remember seeing the image of the striking front cover in the grocery store, picking it off the shelves and taking it home. How does it hold up against his previous short story collections, Night Shift and Skeleton Crew? Find out this week on the Stephen Kingcast!

Episode Sixty Six-Dolores Claiborne, the Movie
In this episode, I take a look at the Kathy Bates-starring adaptation of King's seminal novel. She has already embodied one of King's other classic characters, Annie Wilkes from Misery, and her casting as Dolores herself makes perfect sense. But does it make a perfect movie?

In this week's review, I examine Stephen King's spiritual sequel to Gerald's Game, the first-person account of one woman's life told to us by that woman herself, Dolores Claiborne. Once again, King examines the lasting effects of abuse, in this case, the lengths that one woman will go to to ensure her daughter's safety from familial abuse.
