The end of the monkey is darker than the original Stephen King’s story

This post contains Spoilers For the “monkey”.

Although Stephen King’s reputation due to its bad endThere are some conclusions in his beloved works that fell in history, such as the famous end of “Carrie”, or the last moments of “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption”, which are largely re -created in their film modifications. However, some cinematic modifications for King’s work diverged from the source matter.

The famous director The famous Stanley Kubrick decided to cancel the end of “The Shing”. Jack Tournce (Jack Nicholson) forced a trial in ice instead of fire, and freezing to death in the hedging maze instead of the hotel bombing, as the king was originally written. Now, years later, the director of “Longlegs” Osgood Perkins dared to roam on the King’s Road Road by adapting the short story of 1980 “Monkey.” What is surprising is that the director has evoked an creeping peak atom wrapped in the mystery and smoke that might lead the original.

At the end of the crazy Perkins image that revolves around wiping people in dark ways, with no specific path on the horizon. All they have is a slice of hope and a monkey in the back seat to deal with it, as it seems that the world seems to begin to collapse around them. The short story, although it is mysterious, is much lower than what we end. There are also no additional details about Bell, who is not even in the original story about the monkey on the agitation.

In the short story, just like the movie, there is a man named Hal who made his father and son’s journey to return the family heritage cursed. Playing sings instead of drums (Because Disney does not want that)The monkey suffers from the two, with Hull has no choice but to get a gift from hell with the intention of emptying it in the lake. When applying it on a boat, Hull fights with the elements to try to get rid of the monkey, and go down almost with the game itself, which can still hear the sings while throwing under the water. All that ends well, right? Well, people are terrible, but this is the reading of Stephen King, remember?

An excerpt from the newspapers reveals that since the accident, large quantities of fish began to rise to the surface, indicating that the monkey is still playing alone and that local wildlife is suffering because of it. While it is an effective end, it somewhat rejects comparison The strange, the end of the world we get with the Berkins movieSo it is understood why the director dared to take things in a different direction. After seeing someone fleeing at the opening of the film and losing one version of Theo James in the end, may not have reached a lake full of fish to the place. Well, do not compare to the appearance of a guest from the craft knight for death and high school bus full of heads of head, at least.
