Maximum Overdrive (1986)

This week, we wrap up Stephen King Adaptations Month with 1986's Maximum Overdrive. This is the only film that Stephen King has directed to date, and it's quite a ride. The set was plagued by turmoil, and what ends up on-screen shows that it was a difficult shoot. We go deep into the lore around this cocaine-fueled odyssey and, of course, try to figure out how what we watch actually got made. ________________________________WE'D LOVE TO CONNECT!Please drop us a line at [email protected], and follow us on social media:Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/moviethrowdown/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moviethrowdownpod/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@moviethrowdownpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@moviethrowdownpodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/moviethrowdownpod/Folllow the show on social media and vote for a winner each week.YOUTUBE: youtube.com/@MovieThrowdownPodINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/moviethrowdownpod/TIKTOK: tiktok.com/@moviethrowdownpodTHREADS: threads.com/@moviethrowdownpodFACEBOOK: facebook.com/moviethrowdownpodLETTERBOXD: letterboxd.com/moviethrowdown/ Hosted on Acast.
