Episode description as stored

The episode discusses the unexpected streaming success of the 1992 sci-fi horror film The Lawnmower Man, which originally faced harsh criticism and a successful lawsuit from Stephen King. Although the movie was initially marketed as an adaptation of King's short story about a lawn-care worker, the filmmakers ultimately repurposed an entirely different script named CyberGod. Because the final project bore almost no resemblance to his written work, King successfully sued to remove his name from the title and secured additional damages over home-video releases. More than three decades after its initial theatrical run, the controversial picture has unexpectedly climbed the Apple TV Store charts while remaining widely available on alternative streaming platforms.
