I'm your number one fan!
My guest, creator and host of the Talking Hitch Podcast and Assistant Editor of Ghouls Magazine, Rebecca McCallum, dove head first into the character of Annie Wilkes (played by the tremendous Kathy Bates) as the iconic Stephen King villain.
We discussed how her larger body is used to uglify this villain further, and how we actually felt a lot of empathy and sadness for Annie as she truly is a complex and nuanced character.
Rebecca mentions an article she wrote for Zobo with a Shotgun for the 30th Anniversary of Misery which you can find here;
