Episode 56-Silver Bullet
Because Cycle of the Werewolf was such a short episode, I decided to release my review of Stephen King's Silver Bullet a week early! So there you go, constant listeners! You get two reviews in the span of one week!
In this week's episode of the Stephen Kingcast, tune in for my review of Silver Bullet, King's film adaptation of Cycle of the Werewolf. With Cory Haim, Gary Busey, Everett McGill, Terry O'Quinn, Bill Smitrovich, and a killer soundtrack, does this movie top King's novella? Take a joyride this week on the Stephen Kingcast to find out!
