54 - The Monkey

Is The Monkey the best Stephen King adaptation yet, or does it slip on its own banana peel? Three Doggett brothers have a barrel of laughs as we discuss Osgood Perkins’s horror-comedy follow-up to Longlegs. We unpack the wild plot, debate the funniest kills, and quote some of the movie’s most hilarious lines. Plus, we compare it to the short story and consider whether this is an instance where veering from the source material is a net positive or a huge mistake. Spoiler: we had way too much fun with this one. Tune in and monkey around with us. The Monkey is a 2025 horror comedy film written and directed by Osgood Perkins, based on the Stephen King short story. It stars Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Christian Convery, Colin O'Brien, Adam Scott, Rohan Campbell, Sarah Levy, and Elijah Wood.
