The writer claims he has proof he published the story first. SECRET WINDOW, SECRET GARDEN: A stranger turns up on the doorstep of a famous writer and accuses him of stealing his story. It’s pretty shit as far as King adaptations go and taints my enjoyment of the novella. The only thing that spoils my enjoyment of this tale is the TV mini-series. The Langoliers is a great science fiction story. It won’t be easy because The Langoliers, strange creatures who devour the past are closing in. They need to find a way to go back through the time rip and return to the present. They discover the plane passed through a rip in time and are stuck in the past. THE LANGOLIERS: Ten strangers wake up aboard a red-eye flight from LA to Boston to discover themselves in an eerily empty world. Secret Window was a movie released in 2004 starring Johnny Depp ( ).

Two novellas in this collection, The Langoliers and Secret Window, Secret Garden have been adapted for the screen. Four Past Midnight is a shining example of just how great King can be. Reading it again was like stumbling a long lost, beloved friend. I’ve read it many times but not for a few years. And what happens to the wide-eyed observer when the window between reality and unreality shatters and the glass begins to fly? These four chilling novellas, a feast fit for King fans old and new provide shocking answers.Īfter all, past midnight, is Stephen King’s favourite time of day… It bends, stretches, turns back or snaps, and sometimes reality snaps with it. Past midnight, something happens to time, that fragile concept we employ to order our sense of reality. GENRE: SCI-DI / HORROR / SUSPENSE FICTION
