The Dark Half
“There are very good reasons to be afraid of the dark.”
Thad Beaumont is the author of a highly successful series of violent pulp thrillers written under the pseudonym of ‘George Stark’, but when he decides to ‘kill-off’ his alter-ego in a mock ceremony, it precipitates a string of sadistic murders matching those in his pulp novels, which are soon discovered to be the work of Stark himself. Looking like a maniacal version of his counterpart, Stark is not so willing to quit the writing game – even if it means coming after Thad's wife and their baby.
A writer's dark pseudonym comes to life, unleashing a brutal reign of terror. This adaptation offers a grim, suspenseful ride filled with grisly practical effects and a palpable sense of dread as the author confronts his own monstrous creation.
