George A. Romero’s ‘The Dark Half’ Turns 30: Revisiting the Stephen King Thriller [The Losers’ Club Podcast]
“You always were the clumsy one, old hoss.”
Believe it or not, but this month marks the 30th anniversary of George A. Romero‘s The Dark Half. Starring Timothy Hutton in a dual role and Michael Rooker as Sheriff Alan Pangborn, the 1993 supernatural thriller brought Romero back to King’s Dominion with the late filmmaker both writing and directing the adaptation of Stephen King’s 1989 novel of the same name.
To celebrate the occasion, the Losers are unlocking their Ka-mmentary track for the underrated Friday night rental. Join co-hosts Dan Caffrey, Dan Pfleegor, and Justin Gerber as they return to Castle Rock to talk all things Romero, all things Rooker, and all things ’90s pop culture. Note: This track was recorded in March 2022, so some references might not be so topical anymore.
Stream the Ka-mmentary track below and return next week when the Losers discuss the final Richard Bachman book in Stephen King’s oeuvre: 2007’s Blaze. For further adventures, join the Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS. You can also unlock hundreds of hours of content in The Barrens (Patreon).
