Stills of The Shining, Stephen King, Misery
Stephen King is the undisputed king of horror. With over 60 novels, over 200 short stories and countless novellas, King has established himself as the king of horror in literature. King has even expanded to other genres such as suspense, crime, science-fiction, fantasy and mystery. King has also been established as the king of horror in cinema, with plenty of filmmakers adapting his work to movies, where King often makes cameos.
Secret Window blends psychological thriller, suspense, and mystery masterfully to create an atmosphere where nobody and nothing can be trusted. Many King adaptations rely on supernatural elements, but Secret Windows relies on the horrors manufactured by humans and the human brain, creating a tense psychological experience. The performances by Deep and Turturro elevate the thrills of the movie as they display Mort's dive into paranoia and Shooter's terrifying existence, respectively.
When people hear about a supernatural horror movie set in a hotel, they think that it is going to be haunted. However, in 1408 the antagonist is not a ghost or a demon, the antagonist is room 1408 itself, and it is more evil than most demons, which sets the movie apart from other horror movies that have the same setting. The descent of the skeptic Mike into madness and fear because of the room he dismissed at first is another terrifying and thrilling element.
Pet Sematary takes parents' biggest fear, the death of the child, and turns it into a sinister event where the child comes back as an evil being. The movie explores death, grief, and humans' temptation to change the cycle of life and death when given the chance. Grief drives Louis to do the unthinkable despite warnings from people around him who know better than him, and despite him seeing the negative changes that happened to the family cat.
