A frighteningly relevant film and hard to watch film about obsessive fans and fandoms that can become unmoored from reality. This film and "Misery" would pair together quite well.

I certainly enjoyed this more than that overstuffed undercooked World of Warcraft film.

In the 70’s Richard Donner brought Superman to the big screen which wowed…
