Baxley Readies a Game

Gerald's Game: The MovieNow this could be interesting: a movie that takes place entirely in a room with a woman handcuffed to a bed. Naked. No, it’s not a return of the Guinea Pig series, but rather Craig R. (Rose Red) Baxley’s idea to take Stephen King’s Gerald’s Game to the big screen.

But Baxley won’t be looking to duplicate the book exactly, which is a good thing in terms of cinematic interest. The story is set in a bedroom in a secluded cabin and finds Gerald’s wife stuck in a bad situation after being handcuffed to the bed for some kinky fun, only for her overweight husband to drop dead of a heart attack in the heat of the action. As she struggles to get free or get help, she also evaluates the choices she’s made.

King himself has adapted the story for Baxley to direct and reportedly told Sci Fi Wire that Nicole Kidman is game to do it, which makes me wish they’d stick with the whole “naked chick handcuffed to a bed” idea.
