**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**

In this episode of Film is Lit, we’re joined by our good friend and fellow Stephen King enthusiast, Mike Feser, as we take "The Long Walk" - both literally and figuratively - through the 2025 film adaptation of King’s chilling 1979 novel. It’s a faithful adaptation, depicting a harrowing journey that tests more than stamina, and we’re here to break down every grueling mile: the performances, the tone, and that shocking ending. Plus, we talk about Mark Hamill’s SECOND Stephen King role of the year - trading in the sweet grandpa from "The Life of Chuck" for what is basically Uncle Sam (in shades!). So lace up those boots, listeners... this episode goes the distance!
