New horror series Teacup may be based on popular '80s novel Stinger by Robert R. McCammon, but showrunner Ian McCulloch says that his show only really adapts "the spirit" of the book and is otherwise its own beast.
"I think that if I had read the book as a teenager when it came out, I might have felt a little more beholden to it," McCulloch tells SFX magazine in the new issue, which features Terrifier 3 on the cover and hits newsstands on October 2. "This is a very different kind of adaptation in that it’s really the spirit of the thing and the ideas, and not much else."
