New Release Review - "The Monkey"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-02-24

WW Jacobs' 1902 short story 'The Monkey's Paw' might be the most influential work in the horror genre. In the century since its publication we've received countless novels, stories, plays, TV shows and films that riff on its "be careful what you wish for" template. With his 1980 short story 'The Monkey', Stephen King playfully acknowledged the influence of Jacobs on his chosen field, but rather than merely a paw he presented readers with a whole damn monkey. An organ-grinder's monkey to be precise, one that causes death whenever it's wound-up and its cymbals crash.

REVIEW: "Make Believe" at New Jersey Repertory

by Gary Wien
published 2025-02-21

(LONG BRANCH, NJ) -- World premiere plays can be tricky. Sometimes a few tweaks here and there can completely change a play for the better or for the worse, and I tend to give premieres a bit of leeway. You're not just reviewing the play itself, but the play's potential as well.
