‘From a Buick 8’ Is One of Stephen King’s Saddest, Most Nihilistic Books [The Losers’ Club Podcast]
There’s something about Pennsylvania that gets Stephen King thinking about killer cars. Maybe it’s the rolling hills? Or his appreciation for fellow Master of Horror George A. Romero? Whatever the case, like 1983’s Christine, his 2002 novel From a Buick takes place outside Pittsburgh, only this car doesn’t vroom, vroom. No, this one is more boom, boom.
Join the Losers as they team up with Troop D and head to Shed B to unpack this four-cylinder supernatural horror story. Together they muse over muscle cars, try to avoid one of the more harrowing deaths to ever grace our Sematary section, and debate whether or not this is the saddest and most nihilistic book in King’s canon.
Stream the episode below and return next week when the Losers celebrate the 30th anniversary of Mary Lambert’s Pet Sematary 2. For further adventures, join the Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS.
