From the dead coming back to life in Pet Sematary to a young girl’s powerful abilities in Firestarter, Stephen King has crafted many classic scary tales that have been turned into unforgettable movies. Although Mike Flanagan’s non-horror story The Life of Chuckisn’t fairing well at the box office, fans are always eager to see King adaptations. When the author calls a movie terrifying or comments on a bad slasher, he knows what’s impressive and what’s not, and it’s always compelling to hear his recommendations.
