On the special features of DVD for Lawrence Casdan's psychic science in 2003, "Dreamcatcher", author Steven King talks a little about how he came to write the novel in 2001. He said he was recently injured in a car accident and later admitted that he was under the influence of oxycontin while writing the novel. King also noted that "Dreamcatcher" was supposed to be - at least partly - for taboos exploration. King felt that all sex taboos were covered with literature, which says the bedroom door was already open. The door to the bathroom, however, felt it was still closed. The bathroom is where someone explored their most famous and disgusting habits, King said and researched it highly.

As such, there is a scene in "Dreamcatcher" (and the novel and the film) where I was a character named (Asonerson Lee) sitting on the toilet, cannot be raised. There is a murderous alien eel trapped in the toilet, you see, the one who just knocked out the back of the now dead visitor. I had to chew nervously on the toothpicks to deal with the situation with the eel, but it could not get to where it was spilled on the floor nearby. He is nervous and is unable to become the toilet. That seems to have been the center of King for "Dreamcatcher".

King, however, made a way, way, more with his story, producing one of his strangest and worst works to date. Isbopy is that a talented director like Casdan and a talented screenwriter like William Goldman has teamed up to adapt King's worst book to what is One of his worst movies. It was even covered by Podcast with a bad movie "How did this do?" Get into the details below, but we need to pause to notice that Morgan Freeman, who starred in the glorious adaptation of Steven King "The Shawshank Redemption" in 1994, returned to Kingland for "Dreamcatcher". I guess everyone can't be winners.

Freeman is played by Colonel Abraham Curtis, a bitter, violent general in charge of secret kabal of government agents, the task of seeking and destroying any alien life forms with modesty to attack the country. He repeated the attackers and wants to suffocate. The recent series of attackers who nicknamed "S *** Weasels" because of their unique form of reproduction. For wit: When an unwanted form of life forms the eggs of aliens, they are performed in the bodies of their hosts. The aliens similar to the eel are then expelled from their host, killing them. There is a scene in which Curtis and his right man, Lieutenant Colonel Andhil (Tom Sisemor), run an air strike on the fallen alien ship, located in Maine's snowy forests. The aliens are mentally, by the way, so they pray psychologically for their lives in English as the aircraft approaches. Curtis and Anderhill ignore the pleas and let the rocket fly.

But all this is just the subordination of the central part of the film. The main characters of "Dreamcatcher" are four lifelong friends named Onesons, Beaver, Pete and Henry (Damjan Lewis, Jason Lee, Timothy Oliphant and Thomas Janeain, respectively). Every year, they travel to a cabin hunt in Maine Woods, all in honor of a friend outside the screen they called Dadith. The four main characters share a vague mental relationship and can read other people's minds.

Childhood retrospective of the quartet reveals that the Dadiths gave their psychic forces after saving him from bully. The Dadith is mentally disabled, but clearly possesses eerie abilities. Of the bully's incident, four friends are inseparable, enjoying their male hunting trips annually. In this milieu they attack the aliens.

But wait. There are more. Because aliens are also mentally, they look well suited to the four psychic friends they land on. Onesons becomes bodily possessed by someone else's leader of some sort, and he spends the film trying to release an alien from his mind. This is foreseen in sequences for mental action, with Oneson and others chase each other around the corridors of the metaphorical library in the head of man. In the real world, the stranger gave Oneson's British accent (even saying things like "Gunana"). It is strange that Oneson's British accent is so terrible, as actor Damian Lewis is British.

S *** Weasels aim to take over the world and travel to the tank to insert the drinking water supply with foreign eggs. This leads to a confrontation between the leading alien - the nickname Mr. Gray - and the adults taken. The Dadith lived in a helping facility, looking at "sooby-do" repeated again. In the end, it is revealed that he has a closer relationship with psychic foreigners than he had previously released.

If King's thesis was to explore the horrors of the bathroom, it seems that it is a little away. Instead, "Dreamcatcher" is a flawless accident of King's interests: thugs, male friends groups, psychic, B-movie-style science and big, strange Morgan Freeman's eyebrows. In 2014, King acknowledged that Dreamcatcher is quite the result of his pain medications; It was the Octicity that spoke. He also said he could not use a keyboard after the accident, so he wrote "Dreamcatcher" in a long time, something he was not used to.

The results speak for themselves. And Morgan Freeman, it should be noted, since then it has not been adapted by Steven King.
