Steve and Joe Talks In The Tall Grass

Posted: October 4, 2019, 13:37

Stephen King & Joe Hill talks In the Tall Grass. Steve also mention that there's an upcoming adaptation from Spain of A Good Marriage.

King: With the streaming platforms (and cable TV), somebody can tackle a long novel the way they tackled “NOS4A2” or “Mr. Mercedes.” But with a shorter thing, it's tailor-made for the movies. I think of “Shawshank Redemption” and the upcoming adaptation from Spain of “A Good Marriage.” The original “Children of the Corn” wasn't too bad either.

My Thoughts About In The Tall Grass

Posted: October 4, 2019, 09:24

Here are my thoughts about In the Tall Grass.

In the Tall Grass is one of those stories that when you read it you think ”there is no way this can be filmed”. In the case of this one it’s mainly because it’s both strange and quite brutal. But I was wrong. It’s now filmed, and it works. Vincenzo did it and I think he did it very well.

If It Bleeds; Collection of 4 Stories Out May 5th, 2020

Posted: October 3, 2019, 08:33

King’s next book If It Bleeds is a collection of four stories. They are:

Mr. Harrigan’s Phone
The Life of Chuck
Rat
If It Bleeds

The book will be released on May 5th, 2020 and a place holder cover have been released (this is not the final cover).

If It Bleeds
Release Date: May 5th, 2020

From #1 New York Times bestselling author, legendary storyteller, and master of short fiction Stephen King comes an extraordinary collection of four new and compelling novellas—Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, The Life of Chuck, Rat and the title story If It Bleeds — each pulling readers into intriguing and frightening places.

The novella is a form King has returned to over and over again in the course of his amazing career, and many have been made into iconic films, including “The Body” (Stand By Me) and “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption” (Shawshank Redemption). Like Four Past Midnight, Different Seasons, and most recently Full Dark, No Stars, If It Bleeds is a uniquely satisfying collection of longer short fiction by an incomparably gifted writer.

My Thoughts About Gray Matter

Posted: September 27, 2019, 11:00

Here are my thoughts about the episode Gray Matter from the first episode of Creepshow.

The Creepshow movies are labeled horror comedy and have tagline like ”The most fun you’ll have being scared”. They are also based on comics from the 50’s but even though I try to take that in consideration here it still feels cheap.
