Tell most directors to take a long walk and they'll most likely tell you to get lost. Tell Frank Darabont to take a long walk and he'll tell you how he's wanted to for nearly 30 years.

"That is one of the stories that I have been keeping in my hip pocket. One of Steve [King's] weirdest and most provocative stories. I really love it, and I am going to make that in the next few years," Darabont said of "The Long Walk," a Stephen King classic originally published in 1979. "It is one that stays with you."

King's story takes place in a dystopian alternate America, where 100 random teenagers are chosen every year to walk from Maine down the East Coast. Each "contestant" has to keep up a constant speed of at least 4 miles per hour, and the last one standing wins. First prize? First prize is you get whatever you want. Second through Hundredth prize? Second through hundredth prize is you're dead.

A wicked concept, but one that's not inherently cinematic, says Darabont. Read more...

You answer an unknown call on your cell phone and seconds later you're a raging, homicidal maniac. No, it wasn't your ex-girlfriend or your mother-in-law, it's a strange pulse that has transformed you -- and everyone else with a cell phone -- into a new breed of zombie. As if it needed any more introduction, welcome to the insane mind of Stephen King, the literary luddite whose "Cell" is being adapted for the big screen for director Eli Roth.

Scared of the living dead? Don't be. It's the plain living who should trouble you, Roth insisted. "Everyone on a cell phone gets zapped with this pulse and they all go completely insane. But, what happens is, the generators go out, the power goes out, the water goes bad, so the people that survive suddenly become more dangerous than the phone crazies," Roth said of the frights in his next flick. "Like, the people outside running around killing, they actually become the least of the problems." Read more...
