Featured review
Intriguing blend of two King stories but Lizzy Caplan as Annie Wilkes is 'Misery'
In season twos visit to the Stephen King Universe , we see a combination of the psychopathic Annie Wilkes from the novel Misery and the setting from vampire tale Salems Lot. I wonder if are we heading towards a Marvel Avengers type super team of Kings baddies?
Acting mentally ill is always going to be a challenge. How to convey the inner turmoil without hamming it up? Lizzy Caplan has one trick in this performance: blank expression, wide eyed stare. That's it. It does not compare kindly with Kathy Bates portrayal as the same character exhibiting terrifyingly intense fury one minute and calm calculated evil the next.
