Stephen King at the Movies

By Ian Nathan

Surely America's greatest storyteller, no single author has been adapted more regularly than Stephen King.

Since 1976's Carrie made its mark on Hollywood cinema, over 100 film and TV adaptations of King's work have been created, with many more under development. Now, fifty years after the first King adaptation, take a journey through each and every one.

Stephen King At the Movies is the most comprehensive account of the films and television series adapted from the work of Stephen King ever put together. Every Children of the Corn movie has been accounted for; every remake and reboot wrestled into submission; all the dark recesses of King's imagination brought out into the light. Delve deep into such terrifying and beloved movies and television shows as Salem's Lot, The Shining, Cujo, Stand By Me, Misery, The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile, along with recent adaptations including Mr. Mercedes, Pet Sematary, It: Chapters One and Two and Doctor Sleep.

This new edition includes the very latest adaptations, including 2025's It: Welcome to Derry and The Running Man. Fully illustrated, and featuring fresh critical analysis, interviews, behind-the-scenes revelations and biographical detail, this is both a King completist's dream and a must for all movie fans.

The ultimate guide to every screen adaptation of Stephen King's beloved novels and short stories.
