Recently Graham and Jeff recorded a podcast about the science fiction films of Stephen King. That podcast will shortly be available as part of Jo Durrant’s Beautiful Universe series – thanks Jo for inviting us to participate. One of the comments made during the recording was “you’re wrong” (frequently said to us) “Stephen King is horror not science fiction”. On such statements worlds turn. We thought it would be an interesting idea to turn the discussion 180 degrees. Are Stephen King’s science fiction stories actually horror ones in disguise? An even better idea was to turn that into a podcast for At The Flicks as part of this year’s Halloween series. That’s it, a novel way to reuse our ideas but from a different perspective. Now for the sake of clarity we would say we have not duplicated Jo’s show, this is just a subset of titles told in a very different way. We talk about the following - Carrie - The Dead Zone - Firestarter - The Running Man - The Lawnmower Man - The Stand Graham and Jeff discuss each of these in turn to decide should it be classed as horror or science fiction. The result may surprise you. But what about you, faithful listener, what would you put against each of those titles – a H for Horror or S for Science. Why not set up your own table in advance and check your results against ours. Please let us know your scoring. As for us, we are now off preparing the final Halloween show, the icing on a rather dark cake. Come back soon to find out what that is. See you there or perhaps At The Flicks watching Smile 2
