STEPHEN KING
The undisputed master of
horror
SUMMARY
• His works adapted into film
• My opinions
IT
• It is a Stephen King novel first
published in 1986. The story
recounts the struggle between
frightened children who
become adults and an evil
entity known as “It” that takes
the form of their deepest fears
but appears primarily
as a clown calling himself
Scrooge.
• In 1990, Tommy Lee Wallace
adapted the novel for
television under the title of "It."
The Shining
• The Shining is a Stephen King
novel first published in 1977. Jack
Torrance is trying to rebuild his life
and his family after his alcoholism
which cost him his teaching job. He
accepts a job as a caretaker in a
large isolated hotel in the
mountains. He moved with his wife
Wendy and son Danny. The latter
has the gifts of medium.
• Stanley Kubrick has taken the story
to create one of the most famous
thrillers in the history of cinema,
this film has scenes that remain
classics such as blood falling from
the lift.
SIMETIERRE
• Pet Sematary is a Mary
Lambert film released in
1989. This is an
adaptation of the Stephen
King novel published in
1983. In a city in New
England, a family moves
into a house near an
Indian burial ground,
which is capable of
resurrecting the dead and
see their life a nightmare.
FIRESTARTER
• Firestarter is a fantasy
novel by Stephen King
published in 1980. In this
novel, a little girl with the
power of pyrokinesis (the
ability of a living being to
use fire), and her father
are pursued by a
government agency that
wants to study her power.
• The film was
directed by Mark L.
Lester from the novel in
1984.
SALEM’S LOT
• Salem is a horror novel by
Stephen King published in
1975. The story is about a
writer who returns to his
hometown Jerusalem's Lot,
discovering that a vampire has
chosen to live there, and
decides to fight it with the help
of some other city residents.
• The novel was
adapted for the first time in
1979 with a Tobe Hooper
movie entitled "The Vampire of
Salem". "The Children of
Salem," a film freely adapted
from the novel, was shot in
1987.
MY OPINIONS
• I love Stephen King because I love his way of
writing a scene of horror.
At home I have many of his books such as
“Salem’s Lot“, “Firestarter“, “Pet Sematary“,
“Desperation“, “it“, “Needful Things“ ….
