Description

Out of this collection came a large number of movies (9 again), as well. Either for the big screen, or small. I'll talk about those, along with the stories, but again, I was amazed by the number his early work inspired. (Though some are definitely best forgotten!) I'm unsure of what to write here. It would make this review damn long if I were to review each short story, so I'll just list down my favorites, and not so favorites, then give a brief explanation why I liked/disliked it. The ones not mentioned were either likable or boring. Perché quell'oro era appunto una grande croce, di splendida fattura... ma pendeva capovolta, simbolo della messa di Satana. Imagine working in a mill. No light except for electric torches. A bullying foreman who wants you to keep working, no matter what happens. And big, fat rats straying through the mill ...

Nothing felt particularly outstanding in this story except for the epistolary structure, and as an introduction to the anthology it was a little bit deterring to me. Los chicos del maíz: Ya había escuchado un audiolibro de este relato, y pensaba que iba a recordar la historia, pero, para mi sorpresa en el audiolibro le cambian la parte final, fue muy diferente al del relato, una buena jugada por parte de los realizadores. Así que volví al audiolibro y leí la descripción donde decían que era una adaptación de dicho relato, así que sí como yo escucharon ese material y no han leído el relato, los invito a que lo lean y comparen, en general ambos me parecen muy buenos, pero el relato está mejor logrado en mi opinión. Jerusalem’s Lot:This was the reason I decided to read this book in the first place. It’s a sort of prequel to the events of Salem’s Lot: a man moves into a house that once belonged to his ancestors and progressively discovers an unsettling relation between his family and a ghost town called Jerusalem’s Lot.This is a short story which serves as an introductory prequel if you later wanted to read Salem’s Lot novel. I now love collections for the diversity in story, characters and settings they offer. And Night Shift is one of my favourites, pulpy bundle of great tales. So let’s jump in. La moglie di Jim Norman lo stava aspettando dalle due e, quando vide l'auto fermarsi di fronte allo stabile dove abitavano, scese di corsa per andargli incontro. Era andata a fare la spesa e aveva preparato un pranzetto per festeggiare: un paio di bistecche, una bottiglia di vino buono, un bel cespo di lattuga e altre piccole cose. Jim is teaching Lord of the Flies, a King favorite and a wonderful accompaniment to a short story about murderous kids.

The only story I knew for sure would be in Night Shift was Jerusalem's Lot. I was already looking forward to reading it because Salem's Lot is in my opinion, a classic. This short story explores the ancestry of Jerusalem's Lot.

The story stands on its own well; it doesn’t require prior knowledge of the novel to enjoy it (although it certainly helps) and the style reminded me a little of Lovecraft and Sheridan Le Fanu. For those of us familiar with Salem’s Lot, it reinforces the idea of the existence of places that attract evil, be it in the form of vampires, serial killers, or even gigantic worms from hell. Dopo aver discusso col figlio di Richie, il padrone del negozio (Henry) e pochi altri decidono di bere una birra con lo stesso Richie. Durante il viaggio, Henry mette al corrente gli altri delle terribili cose che il ragazzo gli ha raccontato; di come un giorno il padre bevve una lattina di birra "guasta", e da quel momento iniziò a trasformarsi in un essere disumano che detesta la luce e ama la birra bollente. Spiandolo di notte, il ragazzo ha visto il padre mangiare un gatto morto, il che l'ha convinto a cercare aiuto.

No está de más decir que recomiendo ampliamente esta antología, la van a pasar muy bien en unos casos, o muy mal en otros, todo depende del tipo de miedo que no quieras saborear. Dejaré mi percepción sobre algunos, unos datos sobre otros, y mis favoritos, que de seguro releeré con frecuencia. Jim ricordò l'ammonimento contenuto in Come evocare i demoni: il pericolo che l'operazione comportava. Potevi forse chiamarli, potevi forse indurli a lavorare con te, potevi perfino sbarazzartene. Ma, a volte, essi ritornano. During the holiday weekend of Fourth of July, in a mill, it’s offered to several employees to get an extra bonus for cleaning a very old basement that it hasn’t been cleaned for 12 years… L'ultimo lato di strada descriveva una brusca svolta a sinistra, e dall'altro lato di un torrentello grigio e ribollente, c'era simile a un'apparizione, Jerusalem's Lot!I ragazzi non si sarebbero avventurati in mezzo al grano, col buio. Quello era un luogo sacro, il luogo di Colui Che Cammina Dietro i Filari. Many readers consider this book to be one of Stephen King's most popular short story collections, and I can't disagree with that opinion ... mostly because it's only the second anthology by King I have read so far. Many original horror stories are included in this collection, with most of them having been adapted into classic horror movies like "Children of the Corn", "Graveyard Shift" or "The Mangler". In its entirety, however, I consider "Night Shift" to be a rather weak collection of short stories, and critics will certainly find affirmation that King is also able to write true crap. But on the other hand, some of the best short stories which might be discovered in King's writing universe are included here. Two young brothers cross fates with a gang of punks, and after one of the brothers died, the other escapes. Years later, the surviving brother got married and became an English teacher… La storia termina con il narratore che calcola la crescita esponenziale di cui la creatura era capace, aspettando di capire se il sopravvissuto sia Henry o la creatura.

That little show of paranoia should show you that I’m a bit of a masochist when it comes to horror. It should also indicate you that most of the stars given to this short story collection come from King’s talent to scare me shitless. From electronic appliances from hell to the torture of memories, these tales bring to your door a big bag of uncomfortable feelings and triggers for insomnia. Among the ones that impacted me the most are: Of all the twenty stories in this collection, the one I was most excited about didn't work at all for me. It was scary, yes, scary and thrilling with the religious fanatiscism included, very atmospheric and creepy. Maybe it should have been longer - the potential for a full-length novel was clearly present. Everything felt a little bit too underdeveloped for me. Harold Parkette is devastated. He can't stand to look at his poor lawn, and his family is so disturbed that they all collectively ignore the growing weeds and tall grass. Until the neighbors start to complain. So Harold begins looking for a new lawn mowing service. Because he certainly won't be mowing his own lawn. A bunch of awful teenagers go to the beach at night, in the middle of an apocalyptical world where the most of population have died due a contagious decease.

More demonic possession - I am sensing a theme here! I am pretty sure that most King fans consider this short story one of his classics. It led to a series of what I am sure are very cheesy horror movies. I never saw them, but I have read this short story many times and I know that I love it! Y aunque no sea de los que suelen releer cosas que me han gustado mucho en el pasado, con este no me he podido resistir. Y creedme, sigue siendo una recopilación INSUPERABLE. The Boogeyman (film 2023) diretto da Rob Savage. La pellicola è l' adattamento cinematografico del racconto Il baubau
