Our series on Stephen King adaptations continues with a discussion of 2003's Dreamcatcher, and hoooo boy, do we have a lot to say about it. For those who've purged the film from their memory warehouses, it's a fairly notorious Hollywood flop, written, directed by, and starring a slew of A-list talent. The Lawrence Kasdan-directed movie takes an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach to storytelling and tone, featuring everything from middle-aged male bonding to Native American mysticism, childhood nostalgia, extraterrestrial invaders, psychic powers, and, uh, butt slugs. Will Brian, Nick, or Chris take a stand for this critically divisive, wildly ambitious, frequently disgusting King-inspired flick? Find out all that, plus: Brian sees a living Hollywood legend in concert, Chris checks out Alien: Covenant and a key piece of Paul Schrader's filmography, and Nick tosses in his two cents on recent releases Logan Lucky and Annabelle: Creation.
