@jacob_desio: Tell me what you think the best movie adaptation of all time is… I think the best adaptation is “The Mask” with Jim Carrey that is based off of a comic series that is also called the mask. The mask comic is one of the most unhinged things I’ve ever read in my life where as the movie is one of my favorite comedies of all time ##movietok##movies##movie##movienight##comic##BookTok##books##movierecommendation##fyppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp##greenscreen
Fritz the Cat (1972). The original comic series is Robert Crumb's self-insert that terrorizes women in several adventures. In one of his adventures, he ends up in a Yahtzee gang and r8pes a woman. In the movie, Bakshi flips the character into an ignorant self-proclaimed leftist. In the movie you find yourself liking Fritz whilst also finding him an A-hole at the same time, instead of just laughing at a monster. The same r8pe scene from the comic, and instead of Fritz being the head of the terror he ends up trying to stop what's happening. Not to mention, Bakshi treats the crows (which represent black people) in the movie with much more of an understanding of black culture than Crumb does, as Bakshi grew up alongside black people whilst Crumb only glamorizes and over exaggerates them.

The Thing 1982.
"The Thing," directed by John Carpenter, is an adaptation of the 1938 John W. Campbell Jr. novella "Who Goes There?". The novella, published under the pen name Don A. Stuart, tells the story of a group of researchers in Antarctica who encounter a shape-shifting alien life form. The movie is a closer adaptation of the novella than the 1951 film "The Thing from Another World," which also drew inspiration from "Who Goes There?

Whilst we're on the topic of the Shining, I offer up the Mist. The ending is different but King thought it was so good, he wished he had come up with it.

I thought Bram Stoker's Dracula the movie was better than the book. The movie concludes with a kind of redemption arc that was absent from the written version.

Nowadays someone would have just taken the comics verbatim and made it into a Terrifier type movie.
