The Losers’ Club: A Stephen King Podcast closes out April with another trip to prom with Carrie White, only this time there’s no Brian De Palma, no Sissy Spacek, and no Amy Irving. Instead, they dial back to 2002, when NBC aired a new vision of Carrie that may or may not have been the backdoor pilot for a would-be TV series.
Join Jenn Adams, Ashley Casseday, Dan Pfleegor as they jump in the limo to burn through this early aughts nightmare. Together, they discuss Bryan Fuller‘s “vision”, the digital aesthetics, the garish CGI, Angela Bettis and Patricia Clarkson’s performances, how it hews closer to the page, and more. Never seen it? It’s streaming on Tubi.
Stream the discussion below and stay tuned next week for their coverage on Mr. Mercedes. 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), including more Lobstrosities like this episode.
