Gugino’s acting was terrific. The creepiness of isolation and immobilization perfectly captured.
Saw this recently on a DVD. Having enjoyed Flanagans Occulus n Hush, (yet to c the sequel of Ouija) i was excited to see this. The film which is based on Kings novel is about a couple trying to save their marriage by spending time at a remote house. Thru trailer itself, v come to know that after handcuffing the wife on the bed, the husband suffers a heart attack leaving the wife tied up with no help near at all. 127 hours scenario? To make matters worse, there is a hungry dog on the prowl. The wife later starts hallucinating n she goes thru the mental trauma remembering her dark past.The film succeeded in capturing the creepiness of isolation and immobilization n the growing dread. The good thing about Flanagan is that he can manage to build up tension n suspense in spite of minimum characters n action. Hush was the best example. This movie is more of a psychological survival drama with elements of horror.
Made with infinite class
I’ve only read a handful of Stephen King novels, but ‘Gerald’s Game’ just so happens to be one of them. I liked the novel without overly loving it. It had a memorable ending, but the story was a little bland for my liking. I’ve heard people say it’s one of their favourite King novels and also heard people say it’s one of their least favourite, so it’s clearly quite a polarising novel. I was excited when I heard it was going to be made into a movie though. I almost always enjoy King movie adaptions and was very interesting to see how they went about the ending I spoke of earlier. It is very rare that I enjoy a movie more than the book version (almost to the point that I can’t think of a single example before now), but this is almost certainly a case of that.When you think of a movie where the plot involves a woman tied to a bed for almost the entire run time, you would think they would scraping the barrel to reach 90 minutes. Instead they comfortable cruise to 103 minutes and it never really feels that stretched out.
All the classic traits of King’s work are featured. The well, the eclipse etc. Even the vibe just inexplicably feels like it’s directly from his work. Director Mike Flanagan has once again done a fantastic job. He really is becoming a sure sign of a quality film.
The whole cast was admittedly excellent, but it would have to be said that Carla Gugino carried the film. I wasn’t too sure with her casting whether she was right for the role, but she proved me wrong to have any doubts. It would not have been an easy role, you’re effectively being asked to carry the film on your shoulders, but she nailed it.
I’m really glad this turned out so well. It’s a smart, thought-provoking and moving story of survival that actually works better in film form than it did in book form. It’s a great time to be a King fan right now, that’s for sure.
