The Monkey Has Screened, And Critics Are Bringing Up The Same Two Things While Praising The Stephen King Movie

If you’re not already acquainted, “The Monkey” is a movie based on a 1980 short story by Stephen King with the same title. The plot revolves around two brothers who stumble upon an old toy monkey once owned by their father. As they encounter a series of disturbing deaths, they attempt to escape the ominous feelings associated with the object. However, they eventually decide to try and permanently lift the curse it seems to bring about. Our very own Stephen King enthusiast at TopMob, Eric Eisenberg, was one of those who watched the movie and had only praise for it on Bluesky.
