The producer and director of Gerald's Game chat to us about bringing Stephen King's work to the screen...
Mike Flanagan isn't the big brand name that Stephen King is – not yet, anyway - but I'll admit it, had it been announced that somebody else was adapting King's novel Gerald's Game, my excitement would have been severely tempered.
But Flanagan did get the gig, and so I've been waiting impatiently for his film for months now. Happily, I was not even the slightest bit disappointed. Flanagan's adaptation is, while being very true to King's original, a brilliantly original, cinematic, effective and powerful work.
Last week, I spoke to Flanagan and Trevor Macy, the film's producer, about how they pulled off such a tricky adaptation, as well as Flanagan's next gig adapting Shirley Jackson's classic The Haunting Of Hill House into a “ten hour movie”. Here's how the conversation went.

One of my favorite films out of the 2016 SXSW Film Festival was Mike Flanagan’s home invasion thriller, Hush, which pits a deaf and mute author (played by Kate Siegel) against a lunatic who has trapped her inside her home and will stop at nothing until she’s dead.
While at the fest last month, Daily Dead had the opportunity to sit and chat about Hush with Flanagan as well as co-writer/star Kate Siegel and producers Jason Blum and Trevor Macy. The quartet chatted about their respective approaches to the project, how to keep things fresh story-wise, the importance of sound design, and much more. Check out highlights from our in-depth interview with the team behind Hush and look for the film on Netflix beginning this Friday, April 8th.
I really, really loved what you guys did with this movie. We’ve seen countless home invasion movies before, but...

Director Mike Flanagan and producer and Intrepid Pictures principal Trevor Macy talk to Jeremy Kay about their latest horror film and Netflix acquisition ahead of its world premiere at SXSW on Saturday.
Intrepid and Blumhouse Pictures co-financed and produced the story of a deaf-mute woman alone in a remote house who is terrorised by a man.
Kate Siegel stars and co-wrote the screenplay with Flanagan. It was announced on Thursday that Netflix had acquired global streaming rights and will launch the film on April 8.
Firstly, sound is so important in horror/thrillers, so talk a bit about what you wanted to achieve, especially given that the lead character is deaf-mute.
Mike Flanagan: We knew from the beginning that sound design would be have to be a full-blown character in this film. There is so little dialogue; it forces the sound design to carry huge stretches of the movie without support. People take sound...
