“She can’t be dead. MISERY CHASTAIN CANNOT BE DEAD.”

The Blind Rage Podcast rings in the second week of Stephen King month with an absolute banger: Kathy Bates and James Caan in Rob Reiner’s stellar adaptation of MISERY!

After a horrific car wreck, romance novelist Paul Sheldon (Caan) wakes to find that instead of being in a hospital, he’s in the home of Annie Wilkes (Bates), a dedicated reader who can’t wait until he’s fully conscious to inform him that she’s his #1 fan.

It doesn’t take long for Paul to realize he’s in imminent danger, as after Annie finishes the latest installment in the best-selling series, she finds that Paul has killed off her beloved character. The only way he can right this wrong is to draft a new manuscript, one in which Misery Chastain is resurrected.

And if Paul doesn’t want to write the book, well… Let’s just say Annie has ways of persuading him.
