A series of video episodes based on a Stephen King story debuted recently at NisHere.com. The series was created through a partnership between Scribner and Simon & Schuster Digital, Marvel Entertainment, and CBS Mobile. There will be a total of 25 videos in all. The series will also be available for purchase at major online digital content retailers.
The episodes are based on King's original and previously unpublished story "N.," the tale of a psychiatrist who becomes the victim of the same mysterious and deadly obsession as his patient. This short story will be included in King's forthcoming collection of short stories Just After Sunset (Scribner, November 11, 2008) and published as a comic book miniseries by Marvel in 2009. The episodes were drawn by comic-book artist Alex Maleev, whose work has appeared on NBC's Heroes and colored by comic-book colorist Jos Villarrubia. The comic episodes were adapted by Marc Guggenheim, co-creator of the ABC-TV series Eli Stone with creative oversight from Stephen King. The voiceover cast includes Emmy and Golden Globe award nominee actor Ben Shenkman. Stephen King said, "I'm always interested in new delivery systems for stories and always curious about how those systems work with the old storytelling verities. This one, it seems to me, works extraordinarily well." Those who have been on the Internet long enough may recall Stephen King's online download project called The Plant. Below is the first of the Stephen King videos. They can all be seen on the CBS YouTube channel in addition to NisHere.com.

He also is thinking very violent thoughts towards anyone who reveals the surprise ending. Though for most of its running time it's a faithful adaptation, in the last five minutes Darabont takes The Mist in a completely different direction from the way it finishes in King’s story. I loved it, but it's the kind of finish that's almost certain to inspire equal parts hatred and adoration among moviegoers.It's good to see that Stephen is as laid back as ever. The Mist is currently playing in theaters nationwide. And no, we're not revealing any spoilers. Posted on November 21, 2007 Permalink | Subscribe | | | Comments (View) 
Here is the trailer for the film version of Stephen King's novella, The Mist. Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) wrote the screenplay and is directing the horror film. It looks dark, creepy and very scary as the ordinary people trapped in supermarket battle what's in the mist as well as their darkest fears.
