Just when you thought it was safe to turn the page, Ticket Stubs returns for another edition of our annual Spooktober Spooktacular with a double feature of literary nightmares and the terrifying consequences of fiction bleeding into reality: Rob Reiner's Misery (1990) and John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness (1994). Join us as we descend into the twisted minds of obsessive fans, tormented writers, and perhaps a few unspeakable cosmic horrors, exploring how these two wildly different takes on literary anxieties turn the creative process into a waking nightmare. But before we lose ourselves between the pages, our Blue Plate Special offers a frightfully packed assortment of cinematic treats, including discussions of new releases Primetime, Digger, The Social Reckoning, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, The Devils, and You Can See Everything. We also take a moment to remember the life and career of the late Tom Skerritt. Whether you're spending Halloween trapped in a snowbound Colorado cabin or wandering the streets of a New England town that may or may not exist, we hope you'll join us for another helping of seasonal cinematic madness! As always, please like, subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and wherever else you listen! Got thoughts or questions? Email us at huffmanbrothersproductions@gmail.com.
