TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION FOR TV's "KINGDOM HOSPITAL"
ACCORDING TO UD PROFESSOR WHO STUDIES STEPHEN KING
DAYTON, Ohio -- When "Kingdom Hospital" debuts on ABC March
3, it will be a genuine departure for Stephen King who traditionally makes
his mark in popular literature and film and only turns to TV when it's
a miniseries of his own works.
Now, King has written a terrifying two-hour TV script based on his own
hospitalization in 1999 following his brush with death when he was hit
by a van while out for a walk.
"Whether he actually encountered any of the denizens of the spirit
world who haunt his fictional hospital we'll never know, but he promises
that the series will be a cross between 'ER' and 'The Shining,'"
said Jim Farrelly, director of the film studies program at the University
of Dayton, who teaches a course on Stephen King.
According to Farrelly, one of the country's leading experts on pop culture
and Stephen King, "Kingdom Hospital " not only has its origins
in the Danish miniseries "Riget" ("Kingdom") by Lars
Von Trier, but also is scheduled to air in 13 episodes during its first
season, duplicating the formula other producers used to turn his novel
"The Dead Zone" into a weekly series.
"Actually, 'Kingdom Hospital' is more the culmination of a significant
body of work by King than a burning desire to make more money," Farrelly
said. "From the time he published his first story, 'I Was a Teenage
Grave Robber,' in a comic book fan magazine, Stephen King knew that 'horror'
was his game. When 'Carrie' made its telekinetic debut eight years later,
he suddenly realized he could devote himself full-time to his writing,
and the Master of the Macabre never looked back."
While King has successfully tried his hand at straight fiction over the
years, he continues to come back to his roots in the horror genre.
"Without a doubt, he's written an impressive number of gruesome short
stories, novels, serial thrillers, movie scripts, miniseries, and episodes
of 'Outer Limits' and 'X-Files,'" Farrelly said. "But now he
has his own terrifying series to scare the bejesus out of us every week
about what goes on in hospitals after the lights go out and the nurse
arrives for the graveyard shift."
