The Master of Horror: Stephen King

It should come as no surprise to anyone that another Stephen King book is being adapted into a made for TV movie. Bag of Bones by Stephen King has been made into a TV mini-series for A&E. Hollywood movies, made-for-TV movies, TV mini-series, as well as regular television series have all been made based off some of the author's most popular books. Here is a small list of some of these projects:

Carrie ~ Major motion picture starring Sissy Spacek

Misery ~ Major motion picture starring Kathy Bates

The Shining ~ Major motion picture starring Jack Nicholson

The Green Mile ~ Major motion picture starring Tom Hanks

The Dead Zone ~ Television series starring Michael Anthony Hall

The Stand ~ Television mini-series starring Gary Sinise and others

It ~ Made for TV movie starring Tim Curry (also the reason 1/2 the people I grew-up with were afraid of clowns)

We have a large collection of Stephen King books in the library. Half of the books can be found in the Accelerated Reader section and the rest in the regular Fiction section. Here is a list of titles we have that have also been movies. Consider checking one out!
