After four years of pretty awful Stephen King adaptations, The Boogeyman has saved the horror genre by finally understanding King's art.
The Boogeyman has revived Stephen King adaptations after an awful four-year streak. The new film is loosely based on King's 1978 short story and follows a teenage girl haunted by a monster after losing her mother in a car accident. Like King's other stories, The Boogeyman delves into traumatic experiences and how they affect the characters who've endured them.
The Boogeyman Is The Best Stephen King Movie Since Doctor Sleep The Boogeyman follows recent King adaptations like Firestarter, Mr. Harrigan's Phone, and Children of The Corn, all of which received mostly negative reviews. However, in 2019, Doctor Sleep, the adaptation of King's The Shining sequel, did very well. Doctor Sleep follows Danny Torrence as an adult, dealing with alcoholism as a coping mechanism for his childhood experiences at the Overlook Hotel.
Stephen King's Work Is Finally Understood Again In The Boogeyman It takes an analytical eye to understand King's work. His stories are not simply about killer clowns or haunted hotels. They all possess underlying messages about fear, trauma, or the underdog coming out on top. Unfortunately, not every filmmaker has been able to convey these messages in their adaptations.
These dark events from King's life likely drew him to the horror genre, and this is why his films hold more significant messages of addiction and trauma instead of simply creating horror to scare an audience. The Boogeyman gets this. Sadie is dealing with her mother's death and some mistreatment from friends at school. She feels alone, as does her young sister, who is terrified of the dark.
