When King was first writing Misery it was a short story called The Annie Wilkes Edition. It ended with her using his flesh to bind the final book and feeding what was left to her pig.
I went to Catholic school and got detention for over a month because i wore a sex pistols shirt to school under my uniform shirt...took off my uniform shirt after last bell rang on way out of the building yet that one shirt warranted 6 weeks of detention...pretty sure the school was more upset over my shirt then let's say even God was...
Funny hearing young people talk about getting suspended nowadays lol. My dad got suspended for 10 days for having his hair too long. This was decades ago and his hair wasn't long but at the time for boys it couldn't touch your ears so it didn't have to be long to be considered too long. Stupid for schools to want kids to be individuals while also wanting them to all dress the same.
Great look at the movie. Misery is one of my favorite thrillers and Stephen King adaptations. You touched on one thing that I've often wondered, and that was whether or not she spilled the glass of wine intentionally. I never noticed in the shot before that it would have been from her angle looking in through the keyhole. I would make sense too since she had the TV turned on and cranked up loud enough that she could have sneaked downstairs to look in on him with the TV covering any sounds.

But your really dedicated, really putting so much into your work, by reading the books and movies! You should be proud of yourself, it's not often people say thanks for putting all the effort and hard work into something you are so passionate about. I really look forward to seeing your vidoes, so well done, take the win, you deserve the thanks and praise 😁😁😁
That last point in the movie has always gotten me the most. I never saw the movie until I was an adult, with CPTSD. I have been in his spot, where it takes time to get your brain to see what is really there. For me, this is the "scariest" part of the movie. I can honestly relate to the hallucinations, it hits people on a real note. Love the video, as always!
My favorite part of CZsWorld is how interactive he is with his audience, since he hearts and reply’s to lot of comments, like my comment calling him the ghostface who hasn’t been caught yet (although, saying that means I caught him, hmmmm).
One of the best films ever! I'm not the kind to watch a movie multiple times but that's one that I will. It is still as good today as it was when it came out which doesn't happen often. No CGI or anything like that to distract from the movie. I hope nobody ever decides to remake that. No possible way they could do it better than its already been done.
Plus, the penguin might be a slight tongue-in-cheek reference to another publishing company. Viking Press's parent company, since 1975, has been Penguin Random House. Like Viking, Bantam Books, the publishing company of "The Wolf of Wall Street", is owned by Penguin Random House.
My family wanted me to watch this so I did but got scared and walked out of the room when the women and the man screams at around the 25 minute mark. That was when I was like 9 or 10. I'm 15 now and i'll give it another watch.
Funny enough in the book the book paul publishes at the end is misery's return, I think that in the book Paul probably felt like it was some sort of obligation he had to fulfill
Misery is so underrated...this movie made me love Kathy Bates..shes such an amazing actress...hard to believe the same sweet woman scared of the world in fried green tomatoes is this amazing insane lady in misery...amazing talent..i loved the 2nd season of castle rock because it was the back story of Annie Wilkes and both actresses were phenomenal in their portrayal of Annie Wilkes and her daughter joy...really an amazing cast and seeing Timothy Robbins walk back into shawshank prison was epic
I haven't checked your channel in a while and I'm glad cause I can enjoy my lunch with good entertainment. What I love the most in your videos is that you don't go superficial about the "things you missed", unlike many spam channels who just collect what other people have found and the obvious ones just to reach a minute count quote. You on the other hand have a reason to include each item on the list, input your own thoughts, specially if there's no certainty of why the item was placed in the movie. And as an audience we can tell you have watched multiple times the movie and maybe even read the novels, also, that you love horror. That makes these videos so much more than just background noise. I purposely like to watch them with popcorn or snacks cause it's just as entertaining as the movies themselves, so they help with the ambience.
Remember, as a kid, seeing bits and pieces of misery through my parents semi-closed door and was scared so bad that when I saw a woman with the same hair and started crying she said hi to my parents
"Misery" and "The Graduate" are both connected. "The Graduate" was produced by Embassy Pictures who would later give Rob Reiner his directorial debut with "This is Spinal Tap." Then Embassy would be divided into three parts, Nelson Entertainment the company that backed and financed "Misery" held the rights to Embassy's video library as it had acquired the company in 1986 and launched its own label on the ashes. Both the Embassy video library and the Castle Rock Entertainment library up until 1994 were casualties of the Crédit Lyonnais Bank Hollywood scandal. To make a long story short both libraries ended up being distributed by MGM beginning in January 1999.
Omg that scene in Stand By Me STILL makes me wince at 40 yrs old. Every. Simgle. Time. I first saw it as a 6 or 7 yr old and it has never not been uncomfortable.
I just made this connection, but possibly the whole "my trauma made me truly appreciate being alive" part could inspire the motive for John Kramer in the Saw movies. Like perhaps they expanded on that?
I absolutely love your videos there interesting and funny when you make jokes I appreciate all the work you put in your videos be safe during quarantine
One of the things you missed about the newspaper clippings in Annie’s scrapbook is that they repeat themselves. After the second or third paragraph, those paragraphs are repeated again. In just about every article.
FIRST! I forgot all about that song by Paramore and I thank you SO MUCH for that clip reminding me of my angry teen days rocking to Paramore and Sleeping With Sirens! Secondly I still really love and appreciate your emo aesthetic of longer hair and mostly black wardrobe. It makes me smile :) Keep up with the videos and your fun personality!
11:00 That's a Bacon Press, (*apparently being used as a doorstop) used in a skillet when cooking bacon to keep it from curling up. I used to have one, just saying.
I just watched the movie today I’ve never seen the book but I thought that when she was freaking out about misery dying I thought her pet pig had died but then I remembered that the character in the book was called misery and she named the pig after it
About Time you upload a New video!!! I still wish we knew more about you! by doing live chats or doing a video about things we dont know about you!! Do you have a patreon page
If you watch Kathy at the Academy Awards, she's not too happy about that award. She did enjoy the role, immensely. She just thought she didn't deserve the award for it, that there were other actors there that deserved it better. But she's always been a very modest woman. Even today, after half a century of top starring roles, she's acting like she's just a small-town girl that had a bit role in some B movie in the 70s. There's a really good interview with her from Vanity Fair, where she goes through her career. Well worth a watch, to see the woman of most men's nightmares in a completely new light.
There was also one brutal killing scene from the book that didn't appear in the film, where she Killed a state trooper with Lawnmower first. I was expecting that scene but didn't get it. Truly i came by here first, and to not get Spoilers i decided to watch the movie first, then i decided to read the book first to get the movie and then this video...
I started laughing at the stand by me scene. I was 8 when that came out and I remember being scared af to go swimming in any open areas for a while. Thanks for the laugh.
The pig "ornament" was/is a cast iron statue that was used as a door stop. Today we use wedges made of wood, metal, rubber, or other materials. We have no style today. They had these ornate cast iron statues. My grandparents had a couple. I wish I could have gotten them.
Another thing that I found in Misery in a subsequent viewing is that the newspaper articles about the murders she committed were actually shorter than they seemed- the text was copy-pasted so that the articles would look like they were normal length. Also, which variant of the “hobbling” is more accurate to what the mining company actually did- the movie version (breaking both ankles) or the book version (cutting off one of his feet)?
I’ve read elsewhere that when she spilled her wine, it was an accident. After seeing it here, I’m convinced that it was indeed her looking through the key hole in his room and spilling her wine on purpose.

Whoa! That's awesome.
Love how you censered your shirt I had a friend back in high school that did that to a lot of his clothing so he could get away with it

@@mummymorag2168 yes!

this is cool, man. these are legit actual things i missed, and not just some dead-obvious easter-eggs like in some other channels.
Same here - & I've probably seen Misery a few dozen times 😂
my buttcheeks are cute. meoooow
Misery was the story that made me interested with King's stories, its still my favorite cause of how chilling the idea is
Stephen King is just a good writer. Creator. He books turn to iconic screen plays.
I love that Dutch angle that was used to film the house from the outside in that one stormy night scene. It’s a very creepy effect! Subscribed, man!

here before Screen Rant
Now that's fast
Imagine actually being named Misery like Poor girl
The bullies would make sure to make her live up to her namesake.
I had an OC as a child called misery. She wasn't a person, though, she was a terrible horse.
@@TheTheninjagummybear what 😀
I DONT WANT A POOR GIRL I WANT HER YOU KILLED MY MISERY

I’ll neverr live down how perfect Kathy Bates was for this movie. Nobody could’ve done the role of Annie better than her.
Rose o' donnell could play Annie.
Funny enough in the book the book paul publishes at the end is misery's return, I think that in the book Paul probably felt like it was some sort of obligation he had to fulfill

My favorite line -
“Oh Paul, sorry for prattling away and making you feel all oogey”.
Remember, as a kid, seeing bits and pieces of misery through my parents semi-closed door and was scared so bad that when I saw a woman with the same hair and started crying she said hi to my parents
Unclear to me if Annie reads the script Paul just has written or the already published copy she proudly bought in town.
Kathy bates as an actor does crazy so bloody well. She deserved and earned that Oscar, great actor she is also hilarious.
Love when I find channels to binge on,,,,, my new favorite channel. Been looking for something for a while,,,,only seen 3 but im hooked.
The paramore misery business song has been confirmed to be based off this movie
Finally I found a youtuber who deals with things that really interest me!
Thank you!
I swear you are underrated I hope your channel goes I'm always going to support you!
Bro, he better be happy that he didn't get the Kathy bates in About Schmidt
God I love Kathy Bates. She's funny, intelligent, and an incredible actress. THIS VIDEO IS ALSO CRIMINALLY UNDERVIEWED
How many things can you find in "Bound", starring Jennifer Tilly, Gina Gershon, and Joe Pantoliano?
This also has many Hitchcockian twists.
I love how this video came out when I borrowed the book from my friend to read it. You're mind reader, Zac!

Hearing Danny Glover referred to as "Detective Tapp" rather than "Detective Murtagh" is the most poignant generational gap experience I've ever had.
That's because Tapp is from the horror film franchise and Murtaugh is from the action film franchise :) And this channel is about horror movies ;)

Another thing that I found in Misery in a subsequent viewing is that the newspaper articles about the murders she committed were actually shorter than they seemed- the text was copy-pasted so that the articles would look like they were normal length.
