The Worst Stephen King Movies, According to Stephen King
There are few authors, in the modern day particularly, whose work is as celebrated and iconic as that of Stephen King’s. Likewise, there are few novelists who have seen so many of their works adapted to the screen, with there being dozens of films and television series based on the stories of the prolific horror writer.
King was initially upbeat about the film, but he has since voiced criticism of it, going so far as to describe it as a “train wreck” in a 2007 interview with Time Magazine. His views on the novel itself have soured significantly over time as well, with King explaining that it was written while he was under the influence of Oxycontin as he recovered from a car accident, and alluding to the fact that it resulted in a muddled and unsatisfactory story.
The film was universally admonished by critics and became a box office flop even with its measly budget. Speaking on the film in an interview for the 2003 book “Hollywood’s Stephen King”, King conceded that he was heavily under the influence of cocaine throughout the production and that he largely had no idea how to work as a director. Perhaps because of this, Maximum Overdrive has become something of a so-bad-it’s-good cult classic over the years.
A Return to Salem’s Lot functions as a sequel to the miniseries, but it lacks the inspiration or structure of the original story and ultimately collapsed as an amateurish and sloppy production. While King hasn’t spoken at length about the film, he did dismiss it in his 2007 interview with Time Magazine, listing it as an exception to the fact that the vast majority of adaptations of his work, regardless of how he views them, have done interesting things with the source material.
