Gerald’s Game Trailer

Mike Flanagan‘s Gerald’s Game (2017) movie trailer stars Carla Gugino, Henry Thomas, Bruce Greenwood, Carel Struycken, and Kate Siegel. Gerald’s Game‘s plot synopsis: based on the book by Stephen King, “Gerald’s Game follows Gerald and Jessie Burlingame, who have gone to their summer home on a warm weekday in October for a romantic interlude. After being handcuffed to her bedposts, Jessie tires of her husband’s games, until things take an unexpectedly tragic turn. Still handcuffed, she is trapped and alone. Painful memories from her childhood bedevil her. Her only company is a hungry stray dog and the voices that populate her mind. As night comes, she is unsure whether it is her imagination or if she has another companion: someone watching her from the corner of her dark bedroom.”

I had never heard of this story before but after watching the trailer, I immediately felt Stephen King’s stamp on its storyline. The human condition if one of the top topics that Stephen King explores in his stories, whether that is a big story or a short story. With Gerald’s Game, the viewer is treated to what becomes a one-room play (expect when it comes to flashbacks) where the undisclosed background and secret traumas of the main lead Jessie Burlingame (Carla Gugino) are revealed.
