I hadn't even realized this had been completed: the novelty adaptation of a Stephen King short story to comic-book-style episodes available online or through mobile phones. Wasn't too jonesed for it when I first heard about it, but on stumbling across this short interview with King I became interested in the Lovecraftian concept...
Exclusive interview: Stephen King talks about “N.”
Anyway, it's all available in two-minute installments RIGHT HERE. Just watched the first six. Starts out a bit hokey and melodramatic, gets interesting once the psychiatric patient starts explaining things. Worth trying if the King interview piques your interest.
Special warning to Ben: they make you watch annoying commercials every few episodes ;)
I'm 10 "episodes" in and I'm really digging this.
ReplyDeleteBut I have a huge man crush on Stephen King, so I normally like anything he writes.

Yes, even From a Buick 8...Which was indeed shit but I liked it anyways.
Finished watching it. Fun stuff. It careens toward a somewhat predictable, Lovecraftian ending, but the quirks of execution were enjoyable throughout and tradition isn't always a bad thing.
