Stephen King's fiction has formed the basis of more motion picture
adaptations than any other living author. Over half a century since
his earliest publications, Hollywood filmmakers continue to
reinvent, reimagine, remake, and reboot King's stories, with mixed
results. This book, volume 1 in a series, examines the various
screen adaptations of King's first three novels: Carrie, Salem's
Lot, and The Shining. Reaching further than questions of fidelity
to the author and adherence to directorial visions, it charts the
development of each individual adaptation from first option to
final cut. Through old and new interviews with the writers,
producers, and directors of these films-as well as in-depth
analyses of produced and unproduced screenplays-it illuminates the
adaptation process as an intricately collaborative endeavor. Rather
than merely synopsize the resulting stories, its goal is to
compare, contrast, and contextualize each of these adaptations as
the products of their creators.
