Holy It

In an exclusive interview with Dread Central, David Kajganich tells them that you can expect the big screen version of Stephen King to stay true to the novel.



Kajganich says that the film "will not be PG-13. This will be R, [it] means we can really honor the book and engage with the traumas that these character endure."

He also adds that his script for the film is "set in the mid-1980s and in the present almost equally — mirroring the twenty-odd-year gap King uses in the book."

Thar's good news--although fitting King's 1,100 page tale into a two-hour format is a tall order indeed. The TV mini-series may have omitted some crucial stuff but at least had 4 hours w/ commercials to make it work...
