24 Hottest Stephen King Films Currently In Development

9. The Ten O'Clock People

Release: 2016 Status: Pre-production? Comedy actor Jay Baruchel signed on to star in and executive produce the adaptation of short storyThe Ten O€™Clock People back in 2014, with Fright Night and Child's Play's Tom Holland directing. For horror fans, that should spell good news. The story of a smoker who combines a cessation drug with his habit and triggers psychedelic side effects, turing people in authority into monsters is a strange little gem, but it's an intriguing source for a film nonetheless. Prospects: With Holland's horror sensibilities this could well be a genuine creeper hit, and Baruchel has proved he can do slightly off-kilter - even creepy - performances before.
