Book to Movie Monday, Carrie, Stephen King

Title: Carrie
Author:
Stephen King
Published:
1974

Goodreads

A modern classic, “Carrie” introduced a distinctive new voice in American fiction — Stephen King. The story of misunderstood high school girl Carrie White, her extraordinary telekinetic powers, and her violent rampage of revenge, remains one of the most barrier-breaking and shocking novels of all time.

Make a date with terror and live the nightmare that is…”Carrie”

“Book to Movie” Monday is where I write what books I would like to see turned into a movie or a book that is already in production.

Can you believe they are making another Carrie!

Stephen Kings Carrie was first published in 1974. It isn’t one of his best books but if they do this movie right it could be so scary and i think they have. Check out the trailer Here. It looks so scary. It is also mean’t to be better than the last movie and stays closer to the book 🙂

It is directed by Kimberly Peirce also known for Boys Don’t Cry.

Carrie is to be played by Chloe Grace Moretz and from the look of the trailer she is going to be amazing!

It will be released in 2013 so make sure you keep an eye out and check out IMDb for more info 🙂

“Book to Movie” Monday – City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments) by Cassandra Clare

Book to Movie Monday, Cassandra Clare, City of Bones, The Mortal Instruments

Title: City of Bones
Author:
Cassandra Clare
Series:
The Mortal Instruments
Pages: 
422
Format:
Paperback
Publisher:
Walker Books
Published: 
2007
Goodreads

When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder — much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It’s hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing — not even a smear of blood — to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

This is Clary’s first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It’s also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace’s world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know. . . .

Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare’s ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

“Book to Movie” Monday is a post about what books I would like to see made into a film or a book that is already in production.

As this is my first week I have to start with a book that I have been dying to see on the big screen and it so happens that it is in production.

City of Bones by Cassandra Clare.  It is said to hit theatres August 2013. Only just over a year away.

Jamie Campbell Bower is to play Jace,

Lilly Collins as Clary, and

Robert Sheehan as Simon.

They are not my favorite picks (not even close), but I’m hoping they will change my mind when I see them next year 🙂
