Watched today don't watch that many movies at the cinema based on a Stephen King story think the last one was the second part of it as I read the original short story the movie is based on so I knew what the movie was about anyway the movie I liked it even for a movie that realies on jump scares not on gore which I liked by keeping the creature mostly in the dark helpled alot ramped up the fear factor overall good film hope there's a sequel

Misery - Stephen King
Contains spoilers, click to show
Gripping, suspenseful, terrifying.

I never would have thought a book about humans, with nothing paranormal, could be so utterly disturbing. Annie Wilkes is as terrifying to us, the reader, as she is to Paul. Like him, we never know when she will snap, what will upset her, what she will do. Discovering Annie's past with Paul had me reading and turning the pages with him, I was as afraid as he was when she nearly discovered him.

We never leave Paul Sheldon, so at every moment, we know as much as he does. Not knowing what is happening outside Annie's home adds to the suspense and horror. Is anyone looking for him? Does anyone care? Has anyone thought to suspect Annie? I really enjoyed that we were never shown any external details.


This is the second Stephen King novel I've read, and it was incredible. His style is immediately recognisable, and while it took some getting used to at first, once I had a flow going I could not put the book down. His use of remembering and repetition, and the language he uses, all evoke an astounding reality of a codeine-addicted man held hostage as a psychopaths pet writer.
