The Monkey Interview: Why Osgood Perkins Made the Movie Independently

Some of the greatest horror movies have been adaptations of Stephen King's work. While you've likely seen a handful, at least, we're willing to bet you've never seen one quite like Osgood Perkins' The Monkey. The Longlegs writer-director has teamed with Neon yet again to bring audiences his expression of the King-penned short story without studio interference. Starring Theo James as twins Hal and Bill, The Monkey is "so much more than just a haunted or freaky toy movie." While still respecting King's themes of the "melancholy of living," Perkins imbues this gory Final Destination-style horror movie with his own humor that positions the film just "left of center," a spot Perkins' previous projects like Longlegs and The Blackcoat's Daughter settled in as well. In this interview with Collider's Perri Nemiroff, Perkins and James explain their film's blend of tones and why it had to go the independent route in order to maintain Perkins' vision. James also shares his preparation process for getting into the minds of two polar opposite characters, and explains how they pulled that off in a more old-school way. #themonkey #interview #stephenking #horror #theojames For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit https://collider.com FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL   / collider     / collider     / collider
