Psychological horror

This is the second Stephen I have seen. Jin's works.
The horror storyline, the slow foreshadowing; for everyone who likes horror and gold fans, it is a movie that must be watched.
The real fear comes from the unpredictable danger in the dark but unpredictable. The friendly widow, the benevolent savior, but hidden behind the shocking trap, this poor writer feels the increasingly terrifying situation step by step. I am trapped in dangerous mud.
The heroine’s performance is really great, from being kind, blizzard saving people, to perverted cruel, baby killer, expression wandering freely, taking appropriate measures and benefits, as the plot develops, her grinning face becomes more and more terrifying. At last, when she fell on that poor writer, that frozen face, wading with blood, was actually more terrifying than any illusory monster.
This is the psychological fear-the great Stephen. King is good at it.

Misery quotes

  • Paul Sheldon: [holding a rolled-up page of his manuscript] Remember how for all those years, nobody knew who Misery's real father was, or if they'd ever be reunited? It's all right here. Does she finally marry Ian, or will it be Winthorne? It's all right here.

    [lights a match and with it, lights the page]

    Annie Wilkes: Paul you can't!

    [drops her glass]

    Paul Sheldon: [Still holding the burning page] Why not? I learned it from you.

    [Puts the burning page down onto his manuscript, already on the floor, burning it]

  • Virginia McCain: We got a phone call? Busy morning.

    Sheriff John T. 'Buster' McCain: Yeah. Work, work, work.
