Much of our "Flops that Go Bump in the Night" series has been dedicated to adaptations of the great Stephen King's work. Those films have varied in quality, but none have attained the utter madness of the four films we chose for our last installment.
For this final horror-inspired episode, we stared down rampaging machinery, fueled by an all AC/DC soundtrack and a hefty amount of sugar boogers, with Maximum Overdrive; we gorged ourselves with cursed pies and bad product placement with Thinner; we indulged Johnny Depp's bizarre affinity for hats with Secret Window; and we tried not to look at the slimy cat people as they reveled in their incest with Sleepwalkers.
Yes, folks, things got weird. So sit back, endure the venom of a fine King Cobra from Anheuser-Busch, and avoid angering any Gypsies! I, the Thunderous Wizard (@WriterTLK), Capt. Cash, Chumpzilla, and Mayor McCheese are adopting dozens of stray cats to prepare for the inevitable showdown with the horny, vampiric cat people.
