![]() Best-selling novelist Paul Sheldon is on his way home from his Colorado hideaway after completing his latest book, when he crashes his car in a freak blizzard. Paul is critically injured, but is rescued by former nurse Annie Wilkes, Paul's "number one fan", who takes Paul back to her remote house in the mountains (without bothering to tell anybody). Unfortunately for Paul, Annie is also a headcase. When she discovers that Paul has killed off the heroine in her favourite novels, her reaction leaves Paul shattered. Now this is a fucking epic movie. Misery is a dark, but witty venture into Stephen King territory. It's about a popular novelist who crashes his car on a snowy mountain road and is rescued by a nurse who claims she is his number one fan. As the time goes by, he realizes she has no intention of letting him leave. The film moves with a brisk, taut pace thanks to director Rob Reiner, who helmed another excellent Stephen King film, Stand By Me. Tension is kept mostly throughout (there are some predictable moments...but who cares?) And the performances are also a major plus. |

This is my favorite Stephen King book. And the movie is my second favorite (top 3: Carrie>Misery>The Shining). It's nearly perfection. 9.5/10 |

I started The Dead Zone and stopped after the first killer was found. I really regret it because the book was amazing. |

There are certain rules one must abide by to successfully survive a horror movie
|
I haven't seen this in a while, I always catch it on TV in the middle of the film. Didn't it use to be on Netflix instant? |
