The Running Man: Comparing Stephen King’s Novel & Arnold’s Classic

Today's story, now associated with Stephen King, was originally released under his pseudonym, Richard Bachman, known for darker tales. With Edgar Wright set to create a new, more faithful adaptation, it’s timely to discuss this dystopian horror. Though a staple in Arnold Schwarzenegger's action-packed filmography from 1987 to 1991, it's not typically seen as a prime Stephen King adaptation. While not strictly horror, both the book and film present horrific scenarios. It's an entertaining watch with notable front and behind-the-camera efforts. But how does it compare to the source material, and what does King think of it? Place your bets as we explore this adaptation!
