In a run up to our coverage of The Long Walk, the long awaited adaptation of one of Stephen King’s infamous “Richard Bachman” stories, we’re diving into Maximum Overdrive. King not only wrote the original story, “Trucks” but directed and wrote the screenplay for this 1986 horror film.

This one comes directly from the Necrophone Callers. Thanks Tavis for the recommendation. In 1996, Chuck Parello wrote and directed a sequel to John McNaughton’s brutal, yet oddly haunting exploration of a day in the life of two serial murderers loosely based on Henry Lee Lucas and Ottis Toole. No one was waiting for a sequel, but Parello delivered this pitch black film that has largely slipped below the radar.

H.G. Wells WAR OF THE WORLDS is one of those works that seems to be woven into the fabric of popular culture. The novel was published in 1898 and for over a hundred years, it has come back to us in some shape or form. The first being the infamous Orsen Welles radio broadcast in 1938 that led to mass hysteria that sparked a debate about the power and responsibility of the media. 1953 brough the first film adaptation directed by Byron Haskins and in 2005 Stephen Spielberg tried his hand at the tale. There have been several more movie adaptations and the seasons of the UK series based on it.

In 2025, do we need another attempt at telling this story? Listen to the Necromaniacs and find out!

This week we discuss BRING HER BACK, the Australian horror film by Danny and Michael Philippou, who brought us 2022’s TALK TO ME. Long time listeners will know that we weren’t very fond of TALK TO ME, so it was with some trepidation that we ventured into their new production.
