Misery is easily one of the best film adaptations of a Stephen King novel. Kathy Bates is absolutely terrifying as a crazed fan that will do anything to keep her favorite author working. A tense atmosphere, horrifying premise and fantastic performances elevates this film to classic status. If you’re a writer, artist, or even a little wary of an admirer, Misery will have you looking over your shoulder. Psychological horror fans, Misery is a must watch!
