On the 436th episode of Piecing It Together, we are LIVE from Downtown Cinemas in Las Vegas with guests Knik Woods, Jimmie Gonzalez and Sam Novak to talk about THE MONKEY! Osgood Perkins' hilarious horror-comedy is based on a Stephen King short story and filled with all kinds of wacky, craziness. Puzzle pieces include Final Destination, Gremlins, The Dark Half and Hellraiser.

As always, SPOILER ALERT for The Monkey and the movies we discuss!
