The Stephen King celebration barrels forward! For their third King tribute this month, The Filmlosophers—Hosts Eddie and Spencer, and Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy—are punching the clock for a hilarious review of one of his lesser-celebrated, delightfully trashy monster movies: "Graveyard Shift" (1990).

The crew delves into this film's unique brand of blue-collar horror, set deep within the dank, rat-infested underbelly of a textile mill. They’ll dissect the over-the-top practical effects, the bizarre characterizations, and the overall schlocky fun that makes this adaptation a fascinating B-movie experience. Is this a truly terrible film, or simply a masterpiece of cheesy creature feature cinema?

Join The Filmlosophers for an episode that's part King deep dive, part nostalgic monster mash, and entirely hilarious as they brave the horrors lurking beneath the mill. It's time to clock in for some genuine cinematic absurdity!

So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and tune in to this week's “rat-tastic” episode of The Filmlosophers!

The Stephen King celebration continues! This month, The Filmlosophers—Hosts Eddie and Spencer, and Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy—take on another of the King of Horror's lesser-celebrated works: his 2016 film adaptation, "Cell".

The crew will dissect this unique take on a technological apocalypse, exploring how the film attempts to translate King's commentary on our phone-obsessed world to the big screen. They'll break down the performances, the production, and what makes this film a "fascinating" footnote in the King cinematic universe. Is it a misunderstood gem or a cautionary tale of a missed opportunity?

Adding a truly odd twist to the episode, Spencer and Amy will recount a bizarre outing to a local historic theater where they joined a surprisingly lively (and rowdy) showing of the vampiric cult classic, "New Moon". They'll share stories of the strange audience participation and ponder the bizarre phenomenon of a film's second life as a communal, albeit ironic, experience.

Join The Filmlosophers for a discussion that's part King deep dive and part nostalgic, comedic look at a theatrical event unlike any other.

So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and tune in to this week's “cell-tastic” episode of The Filmlosophers!

In a special episode celebrating the birth month of the most prolific and horrific writer of our age, Stephen King, The Filmlosophers are diving headfirst into one of his lesser-celebrated works: his hilarious and bombastic directorial (and only) debut, Maximum Overdrive (1986).

Join the crew—Host Eddie, Host Spencer, and Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy—as they wax nostalgic on this unique slice of 80s horror. They'll break down the film’s chaotic production, its campy charm, and whether it stands as a forgotten gem or a fascinating misfire in King's cinematic universe. From sentient trucks to a killer AC/DC soundtrack, no stone will be left unturned.

But first, the crew plays a new, fast-paced game called "Keep or YEET!". They'll be given two iconic actors and their roles and must make the tough choice of which one they'd keep for cinematic immortality and which one they'd YEET into oblivion.

Get ready for an episode that's part King tribute, part 80s action, and all hilarious debate!

So pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and tune in to this week's “bubba-tastic” episode of The Filmlosophers!
