Description

She’s his number one fan — and his worst nightmare. In this episode, we break down Misery (1990), the psychological horror masterpiece based on Stephen King’s novel. We talk about Kathy Bates’ Oscar-winning performance, the film’s intense themes of obsession and control, and why Misery remains one of the most chilling depictions of fandom gone wrong.
