'A Short Story Lover's Guide to Stephen King' Meets 'Based on Books' - King vs. Darabont in 'The Mist'
For the first chapter of the second book in the series A Short Story Lover's Guide to Stephen King , I thought I'd do something quirky and combine it with my dormant column Based on Books since Skeleton Crew opens with The Mist , a short story (or rather novella) as masterly written by Stephen King as legendarily adapted to film by director/writer/producer Frank Darabont. Straight up from the start, some useful multimedia links; the movie , a good audiobook narration , a ZBS radio drama , and some fun fan art . There is a TV series somewhere too, but I'm personally not crazy about series/serializations, so you need to find where to stream it yourself. I WILL SPOIL EVERYTHING SO READ THE BOOK, WATCH THE MOVIE BEFORE READING AND DON'T BLAME ME!
