Misery 2000 Horror Movie Review
Horror movies Review
A “heart-stopping psychological thriller” (Joel Siegel) this Academy AwardÂ(r)-winning* film is “one of the best horror movies” (Time) ever. Adapted from a Stephen King story by OscarÂ(r)-winning** screenwriter William Goldman (All the President’s Men) and directed by Rob Reiner (A Few Good Men), this chiller starring Kathy Bates (Titanic) and James Caan (The Godfather), is “a Hitchcockian kind of cat-and-mouse” (The New York Times) gameplayed between two cunning mindsone as sharp as a tack and the other as blunt as a sledgehammer. Novelist Paul Sheldon (Caan) doesn’t remember the blinding blizzard that sent his car spinning off the road. Nor does he remember being nursed back from unconsciousness. All he remembers iswaking up in the home of Annie Wilkes (Bates)a maniacal fan who is bent on keeping her favorite writer as her personal prisoner for the rest of his “cock-a-doodie” life! *1990: Actress (Bates) **1969: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid; 1976: All the President’s Men
