Review

Hutton stars in this well-mounted but uninvolving story from the undisputed master of recycled horror, Stephen King. Hutton is adequate in the role of a "serious" author who is forced by a blackmailer to publicly bury his cheesy pulp fiction-writing pseudonym, "George Stark." But, like most dead things in horror movies, Stark doesn't take extinction lying down; he springs to life and goes on a killing spree. Romero's sure-footed direction is light years away from the low-budget material that he has come to be associated with; it just isn't very scary.
