While we\u2019ve never been hurting for Stephen King adaptations, 2017 has already seen two film adaptations of the author\u2019s work with \u201cThe Dark Tower\u201d and \u201cIT\u201d (the latter now the highest grossing horror film of all-time) with \u201cGerald\u2019s Game\u201d set to premiere soon as well.<\/p>\n

Now, Netflix has gone ahead and released the trailer for \u201c1922\u201d, and it looks as suitably creepy as we\u2019ve come to expect from films based on King\u2019s horror stories.<\/p>\n

The story takes place in 1922 and follows a poor farmer (Thomas Jane) who, with the help of his reluctant son, decides to murder his wife (Molly Parker) when she decides to sell their farm and leave him. However, his perfect murder plot runs into a hitch when he starts being haunted by his wife\u2019s ghost along with a legion of rats.<\/p>\n

Jane (who previously appeared in the Stephen King film adaptations \u201cThe Mist\u201d and \u201cDreamcatcher\u201d) stars in the title role of Wilfred James.<\/p>\n

The 1922 trailer paints the movie adaptation as a terse and disturbing horror\/thriller in the vein of previous King movie adaptations like Misery. There\u2019s also the added tension of whether or not Wilfred is imagining everything that happens to him after his commits murder, thanks to his guilt-racked conscience, or whether there actually are supernatural forces at work here. Those who have read the source material already know the answer to that question though who knows, the cinematic re-telling may yet throw some curveballs at them too.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the full trailer and don\u2019t forget to sound off in the comments below.<\/p>\n
