It's Andy Muschietti is producing an adaptation of one of Stephen King's worst books
The Langoliers of Hollywood haven’t wavered in their quest to gobble up every Stephen King story in this cinematic renaissance of the horror author’s work. This year alone, we’ve reported on upcoming adaptations of Salem’s Lot, Lisey’s Story, The Eyes Of The Dragon, and “Rest Stop,” as well as the latest developments in HBO’s The Outsider, Amazon’s The Dark Tower, and CBS All Access’ The Stand. There’s also Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark director André Øvredal’s take on The Long Walk, a novel collected in The Bachman Books, a collection of stories King wrote under the pseudonym Richard Bachman. The Long Walk is excellent, but the rest of the Bachman books? Let’s just say there’s a reason that Arnold Schwarzenegger’s The Running Man is more beloved than its source material. Well, another book from that collection has been optioned, and it has us thinking that the King well might be running dry.
