Cinesthesia's Hell to the King: The Complete Series

Jason and Jim are back from Hell. Revisit their month-long plunge into Stephen King film adaptations

Once upon a time, two men started Cinesthesia, a biweekly podcast devoted to the loving, gentle pursuits of cinephilia and friendship. Then, barely two episodes into production, those men made the baffling choice to start a second spin-off podcast, Hell to the King, in which they watched and discussed a Stephen King movie (or two) (or four) every day for October’s 31 days, and lo, their minds and bodies were shattered by their plunge into that harrowing abyss, and they stopped producing anything other than bodily waste and audible groans for three months.

BUT NOW, physically and mentally rehabilitated, the Cinesthesia Boys have clawed their way out of the pit and are back to give you sweet kisses in your ears. And talk about movies.

(Just not Stephen King Ones. We’re still traumatized.)

From The Shining to The Mist, revisit Jason and Jim’s month-long odyssey through the Stephen King macroverse before new episodes begin. Come hear what we see.

Cinesthesia returns with Chapter 3: “Much Love, The Sloppy Justice Robots” on Monday. Follow Cinesthesia’s new Twitter account for past episodes, movie news and beefs with Reel Rap.

Join a filmmaker (and sometimes film teacher) and a film teacher (and sometimes filmmaker) as they venture into the dark heart of their own befuddled relationship to culture, the youth, the internet, friendship, love, hate, time, space and, of course: *m*o*v*i*e*s*. Come hear what we see.
