By 1983, Stephen King had rocketed to the top of the publishing world within a fairly short period of time. His first novel, Carrie, had been published only nine years before but he was already considered the modern master of the horror novel. The adaptations of his work, Brian DePalma’s Carrie (1976), Tobe Hooper’s TV movie Salem’s Lot (1979), and Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining (1980) had only served to feed the fires of his popularity. King had become a cottage industry by the third year of the new decade and the three films based on his work released that year remain among the best connected to his name while exploring some of the greatest issues he grappled with in the early years of his career.

In a career so far spanning 50 years, Stephen King has published 65 novels (with a 66th imminent) and more than 200 short stories. His books have sold more than 400 million copies worldwide, and have been regularly snapped up for film and TV adaptation. As a brand name, King is almost as prolific on screen as in print, with at least 60 movies (not even including the eight sequels to Children Of The Corn) and 50 shows to date, with more always incoming.
Cinematically, however, while some of the author’s adaptations are clear-eyed classics, the King association has not always been a guarantee of quality. In the early days, the gold rush to mine his back catalogue yielded more turkeys than treasure. So, with Rob Savage out this week (based on a 1973 short story in King’s _Night Shift collection), Empire have put together a list of the 15 greatest big-screen versions of the legendary scribe’s stories.

One of the classic TV comedies that doesn’t get much love anymore is Who’s the Boss? Maybe that’s because it’s not streaming anywhere so it’s hard to binge like Friends or The Office. Also, it’s all the more reason you might need other recommendations to get your Who’s the Boss? fix while you wait for your DVD of the complete first season to arrive.

"It's not a monster, it's just a doggy!" In 1983, film audiences were exposed to one of the scariest dogs ever put to screen: Cujo.

The movie isn't usually counted among the best King adaptations, but it holds a special place in the minds of fans and unsuspecting viewers alike.

There are plenty of former child actors that you can take a look at and realize that even if you don’t see them much they’re still doing pretty well. Danny Pintauro is somewhere in the middle between doing well and flat broke on his butt even though he’s not doing horrible.

Well, Judith Light clearly isn't the boss when it comes to deciding to do a reboot of the hit '80s sitcom Who's the Boss?, which originally aired from 1984 until 1992. In a new interview, the actress (who played Angela Bower in the show) opened up about a possible revival of the series she starred in alongside Tony Danza (as Tony Micelli), Alyssa Milano (as Samantha Micelli), Danny Pintauro (as Jonathan Bower), and Katherine Helmond (as Mona Robinson). However, she didn't sound too convincing. (Photo Credit: Getty Images) "I don't know," she admitted to Entertainment Tonight. "Nobody's really talked about it, and I don't know. I mean, we're all working. Tony's got a show on Netflix, Alyssa's working, Danny's working, and you know, Katherine's working, I'm not sure we'd be able to put it together. Nobody's really talked about it, so I don't know." However, her co-star Alyssa is singing a different tune.

It's a book that Stephen King doesn't remember much about writing. But how does the film of Cujo fare?
The Film: The Trentons, consisting of Vic, Donna and their son, Tad, have recently moved to Castle Rock, Maine from the big city. He’s an advertising exec with a campaign in crisis, she’s a bored housewife having an affair with local bearded wonder, Steve. Meanwhile, the pet of Joe Camber, a nearby mechanic, is a dog named Cujo, who has unfortunately been bitten by a rabid bat during a rabbit chase. When Donna journeys up to the Cambers to get their car fixed with Tad in tow, they have no idea that the now rabid Cujo lies in wait for them.
