Stephen King at the Movies by Ian Nathan

Stephen King at the Movies by Ian Nathan

Fresh critical analysis, interviews, behind-the-scenes revelations and biographical detail - this is a King completist's dream and a must-for all movie fans.

Beautifully presented.. Great care has been taken to create a book that itself feels every part a piece of movie memorabilia. The book oozes style like a premium, limited edition release... As an overall history of the writer’s adaptations, it does a fantastic job.

* Horror Cult Films *

Ian Nathan has hit a sweet spot ... with this pithy, handsomely illustrated coffee table sweep through almost five decades of TV and film King translations. ****

* Frightfest *

Nathan brings an experienced eye to the movies and shows, their creation and reputations, deserved or otherwise. You won’t agree with everything, but it might get you seeking out one or two that you’d not heard of before. A highly readable overview of what still appears to be an expanding topic. Recommended. 9/10

* Sci-Fi Bulletin *

Stephen King: At The Movies is a lovingly crafted tribute to King’s work on film, and an excellent coffee table book... Ian Nathan is an incredibly articulate author, and for the most part his analysis of the films and TV shows is incisive and spot on.

* Front Row Reviews *

Visual and textual fun... Stephen King at the Movies is part photo book, sneering with nasty full-color images culled from the many King screen works, as well as some neat behind-the-scenes looks at these films and shows’ creations.

* Psychobabble *

Strong on context, Making Of anecdotes and analysis... Also a joy is the mix of stills and behind-the-scenes shots, gleaming so vivid as to bleed off the page.
