Stephen King has had numerous books adapted to the screen, and while some took big liberties with the material, they are still beloved anyway.

King decried Kubrick’s avant-garde chiller as “misogynistic”, and was aghast at Jack Nicholson’s cackling turn as an author driven insane by isolation, writer’s block and off-season hotel catering.

Stephen King has written and worked on some incredible books that were turned into absolutely amazing movies.
