Buzz's Favorite Stephen King Adaptations
Just in time for Halloween (aka scary movie) season, Stephen King is taking his work to the small screen again. His novella, The Colorado Kid will be adapted into a series called Haven. The prolific writer has seen tons of his short stories and novels turned into movies and miniseries over the years.
IT Is Back, This Time on the Big Screen
Coulrophobics (those with a clown phobia), beware: That freaky clown from Stephen King's IT is back — and this time on the big screen instead of in an ABC mini-series. Warner Bros. plans to adapt King's novel for film and has hired Dave Kajganich to make his directorial debut with the scary movie.

Movie News Roundup: Stephen King, Kevin Spacey, Sam Raimi Get Busy
Lots of intriguing movie news coming out of Hollywood today:
- Kevin Spacey will star in the indie film Shrink as a depressed therapist who likes to ah, partake of the ganja. (A pot-smoking therapist? That sounds familiar.) His clients in the movie will include "Hollywood characters" like Robin Williams, Keke Palmer, Laura Ramsey and Gore Vidal, among others.
- Columbia and Sam Raimi will team up together again after their Spider-Man ventures for yet another adaptation of a Dennis Lehane novel.
Broadway Musical News: The Couger Meets Cujo
Who knew Stephen King and John Mellencamp had anything in common, much less a desire to write a Broadway musical together? Not I, but apparently it's true, and the two men are collaborating on a musical theater project, scheduled to debut in April 2009, titled Ghost Brothers of Darkland County.
The story follows the legend that grows out of the tragic death of two brothers and a girl in the fictional town of Lake Belle Reve, Miss.

The Mist Will Creep Up on You
I admit that I wasn’t expecting much from the film adaptation of Stephen King’s novella, The Mist. I thought it might be a fun-scary movie — the kind that jolts you out of your seat with fright but isn't all that memorable. Yet just as the otherwordly mist in the film creeps into a small town in Maine and traps unsuspecting shoppers in a grocery store, The Mist crept up on me, making me realize I was in for a terrifying hour and a half.
Frightful Friday: The Shining
"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."
"Danny isn't here, Mrs. Torrance."
"Red rum, red rum, red rum!"
Frightful Friday: Carrie
While Carrie is probably my favorite Stephen King story ever, I also find it to be terribly sad in addition to being terrifying. Every time I watch it I'm catapulted back to those high school days when kids were so outright cruel to each other. Then again, despite the sadness in Carrie's life, this is also the ultimate revenge fantasy — what victim of a vicious high school hierarchy wouldn't want to lock her tormentors in a gym and unleash the wrath of hell on them?
