The Monkey: A Horrifying and Hilarious Good Time

Based on Stephen King‘s creepy short story, The Monkey promises to be a film full of a spooky blend of gore and LOLs. It was directed by Osgood Perkins of Longlegs fame and produced by James Wan of The Conjuring universe so we should be in for a terrifyingly good time.

The Monkey Plot

When twin brothers, Hal and Bill Shelburn, discover their father’s seemingly harmless toy monkey, less-than-harmless things begin to happen. As the death toll rises, the twins decide that maybe they should dispose of said monkey toy. Despite their efforts to get rid of the cursed toy, the monkey keeps returning, forcing the brothers to find a way to break the cycle of terror. But will they succeed in ridding the earth of this toy menace? Time will tell.

Cast of The Monkey

Theo James of The Gentlemen fame plays the struggling twins and shares the screen with The Lord of the Rings star Elijah Wood and Tatiana Maslany of She-Hulk. 

Additional members of The Monkey are:

  • Adam Scott of Severence and Step Brothers
  • Christian Convery of Sweet Tooth
  • Sarah Levy from Schitt’s Creek
  • Colin O’Brien played a young Willy Wonka
  • Rohan Cambell of The Hardy Boys
