Transcript
00:00 I know that I'm actually way over time, but you said a magic word, which is Stephen King.
00:06 I am an ridiculous obsessive over it.
00:09 It comes to Stephen King.
00:10 And I mean, having now had the chance to make it a Lovecraft adaptation, I'm curious if
00:15 there is a dream Stephen King adaptation on your radar.
00:18 Look, I have been wanting I even told Mr. King because he had seen one of my movies,
00:24 Mayhem and also episodes of my The Show Creep Show that I did and reached out to me and
00:29 talked about it on Twitter.
00:30 So we've started a bit of a relationship when you get emails from Steve.
00:35 Fucking blows your mind, right?
00:38 But but yeah, like I told him, it's like, I will not quit until I get the chance to
00:44 tell one of your stories.
00:46 And and there's a bunch that I have.
00:48 There's one in particular.
00:49 I don't know if I can say it now because I'm working on it right now.
00:53 But I will not quit.
00:55 Seriously, Eric.
00:56 I will not give up until I get the chance to at least get my version of what Stephen
01:02 King has contributed to me.
01:04 He is one of the people that got me into the genre when my my house was robbed when I was
01:09 like six.
01:11 And the robber took everything in our house except for the hardcover copy of Christine.
01:17 And when my mom was on the phone calling 911, I sat there and started reading it.
01:21 It's the first time that I read Stephen King or anything.
01:23 And it changed my life.
01:25 So and so many of his movies and his books and everything have really shaped who I am
01:31 as a storyteller.
01:32 So someday it's going to happen, maybe sooner than you think.
