That's from Night Shift. Henry Winklers assistant or relief guy. Boss's nephew or something like that. Before Micheal Keaton comes in.

You're impressed that I know that.

It's unrelated, but have you seen Graveyard Shift? It's from the early '90s, I think. The boss in that movie has the worst New England accent ever.

The one based on the King short story? Yes, it's a piece of shit. The story was no great shakes as it was but at the time they were making everything he ever wrote into a movie.

Yeah, it's one of the worst King movies, and that's saying something. I watch it when I see it on TV, though, just to laugh at the ridiculous accent. It's also funny how the scenery all looks like Lousiana, even though they're supposed to be in Maine.

Why did Stephen King let them put his name on shit like that? I'm not a huge fan, but he's a lot better than all those '80s and early '90s movies. He was plenty rich by then, so it's not as if he needed the money.

I don't know if that movie was part of it but he has a long standing agreement to sell the rights to his short stories to first time filmmakers for one dollar. That has resulted in some really good stuff and some really bad stuff. Darabont got his start that way.
King has also always made it clear that once he sells the rights he rarely has any input and doesn't even really care all that much. He has been critical of some but for the most part he just collects his paycheck.
If you read his book On Writing you see that he's not very sentimental of his work. To a certain degree because it's his but he doesn't dwell on it. I highly recommend that book by the way. It's quick, easy read and incredibly informative. Probably the second best book on writing ever.

Wow, I did not know that! He deserves credit for giving them a chance, at least. I know he asked for his name to be removed from Lawnmower Man, but that's only because it wasn't like the story at all.

What's your favorite book on writing? Is it "Supernatural Horror in Literature" by Lovecraft?

Elements of Style is the best because it's just the best. Maybe not the most fun to read but it's absolutely essential reading for any writer.
On Writing is second best because it's about the job itself.

I've heard of that, but I never could bring myself to read a book about writing. I can write fine, but I can't come up with good enough ideas. I'd probably just go Poe and fuck up the ending.
