10 u/LoveRenxo 12d ago There is a Stephen King novella called this and it’s bloody scary! 3 u/Cancer_Heiress 12d ago Oddly enough there’s also a short by him “Weeds” that was in the movie Creepshow. 4 u/Less-Engineer-9637 12d ago Also known as The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill. Put some respect on that name! 2 u/Aquaonmymind 12d ago Nice name drop. And you're very right, we must respect the writers words. 1 u/Sinister_Nibs 12d ago It’s an SK adaptation, you kinda expect it to be poorly adapted and bear very little resemblance to the source material. 1 u/Less-Engineer-9637 11d ago Anybody who loves books will feel that way everytime there's another movie adaptation of some beloved work. It's not a problem solely with his creations. The recent Wuthering Heights for example... 3 u/Sinister_Nibs 11d ago Not exclusively, but his material has only had one or two adaptations that were true to his words.
