Now, as Now Playing hosts Arnie, Stuart, and Jakob begin their Superman retrospective series leading up to this summer's Man of Steel film they look back at this forgotten 1951 feature. Reeves would go on to play Superman on television from 1952 to 1958 becoming the face of Superman for the baby boomer generation. Created as part of the television series The Adventures of Superman, Superman and the Mole Men starred George Reeves as the man of steel dealing with a race of beings who have escaped their home miles below ground. But long before Christopher Reeve would embody the iconic Kryptonian there was another Superman movie-Superman and the Mole Men. In the 1970s he made moviegoers believe a man could fly in the first blockbuster superhero film. In the 1930s the DC character was a breakout success creating a template for superheroes that would be copied for the next century. Does De Palma's blood soaked tale of a teen outcast still hold up over 35 years later? Listen to find out! Then join Arnie at for his review of the original novel! It's the start of Now Playing's massive Stephen King retrospective series, looking at all the movies based on King's writings, starting with Carrie. Now, in anticipation of the upcoming third adaptation of Carrie starring Chloë Grace Moretz the Now Playing hosts go back to watch and review De Palma's original.

But when Brian De Palma decides to adapt Carrie for the big screen he created an iconic horror movie staple, and from that King's book sold millions of copies and his career was minted. Yet before November, 1976 King was just another author with two modest-selling novels.

It's hard to imagine a world without such influential stories including The Shining, The Stand, Christine, and King's first novel, Carrie. It's hard to imagine a time when Stephen King wasn't the king of horror fiction.

On a direct-to-VHS series called The Night Shift Collection student adaptations of King's short stories 'Children of the Corn' (title changed to Disciples of the Crow for film), 'The Boogeyman', and 'The Woman in the Room' were distributed-the last title directed by Frank Darabont, who would go on to direct professional King adaptations The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, and The Mist! So join Arnie, Jakob, and Stuart as they go back to school and review The Night Shift Collection! In an attempt to help student filmmakers King sells non-exclusive rights for one dollar he calls these films his 'Dollar Babies.' As part of the contract these films can not be distributed or sold however, in the 1980s three Dollar Babies were renegotiated and saw professional release. But beyond the feature films are hundreds of student-made short films based on King's short stories, completely authorized by the author. Stephen King has over 50 feature films based on his writings. Now Marvel Studios makes another big bet, a billion dollars, that audiences will love what they tout as “the most ambitious crossover event in history.” Is the more the merrier when it comes to superheroes on screen, or is this an overstuffed, overlong, bloated bust? Join Arnie, Stuart, and Jakob now as they review Avengers: Infinity War! Ten years and 18 movies later, not only has their gamble paid off but few would disagree with their hubris. Ten years ago Marvel Comics gambled their entire existence, using all their remaining IP as collateral, on the idea that they could make superhero movies better than anyone else. Also a couple corrections or 'inserts' may be in the final version and not in this release.

It will contain background noises, misspeaks, and other errors.
