Stephen King-Rejected Adaptation Of 41-Year-Old Sci-Fi Horror Story Gets A Second Chance As A Streaming Sensation

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي]

Stephen King's stories have been adapted into some of the most famous films of all time, such as Carrie (1976), Stand by Me (1986), Misery (1990), The Shawshank Redemption (1994), The Green Mile (1999), and It (2017). However, there are occasionally adaptations of the author's work which he disapproves of, the most famous example being Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980). Despite being widely considered one of the greatest horror movies ever made, King criticized the film for its deviations from his novel.
