Matbe I'm slow . . . But for a long while I thought Thad was just a nutjob and was the murderer. There goes my chances of ever being a detective . . .
the most inadequate and improbable encounters between two people who can hear each other... the bad one does not want to talk to the good one... Of course the bad would want to talk to the good one for one reason ONLY...to overpower him once and for all, including killing him. Ridiculous...
I never read the book, but I am under the impression that there's some sort of hidden quotation of Nelson Algren's "The Man With the Golden Arm", here. The protagonist of that book is called Frankie Machine, and his buddy is Solomon "Sparrow" Saltskin.
King refers to some other authors that had an influence on him when he was writting the book. It is on the final pages of the book, but I can't remember if that man you say it is mentioned on it.
@babadope Honestly the image of him in this movie is different than the one I got in the book. My vision of the literary George Stark was definitely psychotic, but in a much more relaxed way.
Why does everything George Stark do, have to be so violent? LOL.
Stab his hand, break liquor bottles, spit in mirrors, re-open his wounds, drive his car like a maniac, etc... Oh, and of course, murder people the author knows at a seemingly random pace.
If George Stark is a real person. He should just write his book. Let Beaumont do the publicity. Then afterwards Let George Stark take over the Novels and stuff.
how'd he get that scar on his face? so ur telling me he had a twin all a long doing the killing? this still doesn't make any sense i mean the beginning i thought he had another personality but i don't know very confuse lol.
You have to read the book - seriously. The Shining (movie) didn't make sense to me - the book was great. Probably the same with this. I haven't seen this before, I didn't realize they'd made a movie. The book is really great - and you'll understand what's going on. It's a good read.
That wouldn't be supernatural enough 4 King. lol And plus he's making him go into that trance thing, & the sparrows are nutty...so not norm. Interesting, considering most horrors involve crows (ravens too I guess). I think the scar is cuz he's "falling apart" like he said. So yeah a twin risen from the dead by fiction made real. heh
can someone tell me ?its def 2 different actors isnt it? but in some camera angles i'd swear it's the same actor tim mathesson ,but made up to look identical but meaner and stronger? in some scenes i think ".no ,definitely differnt people "and then a flash of the camera and i think , "hang on a second, same guy" then i think did mattheson get the job partly as they found a double of him who luckily could also act? adds 2 the dilema as would be a log shot as so similar looking. give proof if ucan
i like it too but i noticed a mistake i don't know but i thought so..while he was writing in his office when sparrows where or the window i noticed he hurted hid right hand..meanwhile he was in the doctor's room i noticed that he was with the left arm bandeged..i don't know if i'm right but that's what i saw:)
wrong, if you were watching it right he stabbed his left hand, his was sitting there mumbling then after he wrote HEAD (he was writing with his right hand) he stabbed his left hand.

He was writing with his right hand and then took the pencil and stabbed it into his left hand.
In the Doctor's office, he was bandaged on his left hand like he should have been. No errors were made :)
