Synopsis "King And Romero Are Their Twisted Best!" - Rolling Stone Masters of horror Stephen King (The Shinning) and George A. Romero (Night Of The Living Dead) have created a "gripping, creepy, frightening" (L.A. Reader) film that thrills, shocks and works us over" (Los Angeles Times)! Featuring an "intelligent screenplay and first-rate cast" (The New York Times), including Oscar winner Timothy Hutton, The Dark Half will keep you captivated to the chilling end. Horror writer Thad Beaumont (Hutton) hopes to distance himself from his murder novels and from George Stark, the name he has used to anonymously author them. To achieve this, he cooks up a murder of his own: a publicity stunt that should lay Stark to rest forever. But when the people around him are found gruesomely slain - and his own fingerprints dot the crime scenes - Beaumont is dumbfounded until he learns that Stark has taken on life of his own...and begun a gruesome quest for vengeance!

Empire Review A dark half makes a whole scary movie - 3.75 out of 5  (5/10/2000) The "Dark Half" makes it sort of easy to see where some writers get their ideas. Stephen King based the film on a novel and the basic premise could almost be considered autobiographical. King himself had to contend with an outraged fan exposing his dual identity as Richard Bachman. Bachman was a creation made by King to sell more novels. It was supposedly never a money issue with King, it was just a means to put out more material than the usual one novel a writer was allowed per year.
