Stand By Me: Why Stephen King’s The Body Should Be The Next Story To Be Adapted For A TV Show – Cinema Blend

In an era where horror films seem to come out quicker than good horror, there are few that really stay within the minds of fans. However, some adaptions in the past have defined what the horror genre is, and they come from one author who always seems to put others to shame Stephen King. He is the author of such books as IT, Carrie, The Shining, Cujo, Pet Sematary, and so many more. Stephen King is truly a master of horror I mean, the dude lived in a haunted house in Maine. You cant get scarier than that.

However, there is one adaption of Stephen Kings that hasnt been done in some time, and that is the novella he published back in 1982, The Body. It was adapted into the hit coming-of-age movie, Stand By Me, in 1986, but since then this King piece has gone widely un-adapted and unnoticed. These are the reasons why now is the best time to adapt this piece of work into a limited series of some sort.
