Review of The Dark Half (1993) by Max M — 26 Jul 2011
The dark half starts in 1958 where thadous beaumont is sent to a hospitial for having strange seizures no one knows why then it goes present to present 1991 which we meet thad as an adult played by timothy hutton (the falcon and the snowman and tv's leverage) is now a teacher and a book writter one thing thad does not know is that he has an alter ego named george stark which george is a bookwritter of a different style and genre of books because thad's books didnt do very well on the store shelves so after thad and his wife liz played by amy madigan (uncle buck) go get their photo taken at a fake tombstone/grave of george stark things start to happen they all think it is fred clawson palyed by robert joy (tv's CSI:miami hills have eyes and land of the dead) but they find his corpse at his home so then it comes a who dunit picture but it is is still one of george romero's greatest horror film works of the 90's and with stephen king which the dark half is based on a book with the same name by stephen king highly recommended for any horror fan a great horror gem of it's time very unknown film though of king's film adaptions highly recommended very well done and disturbing film good job romero.
