As a lifelong fan of Stephen King’s works, I can hardly contain my excitement about the upcoming movie adaptation of “Autopsy Room Four“. Having read this short story back in 1997 when it was first published in Six Stories, I remember the chilling sense of dread and uncertainty that it evoked. To see it come to life on the big screen is truly a dream come true.

Stephen King’s short story Autopsy Room Four is being turned into a movie.

1997 saw the publication of “Autopsy Room Four” in Stephen King’s collection, titled Six Stories. The story was also included in the Robert Bloch’s Psychos anthology that year.

Now, per Deadline, the short story is being turned into a feature-length movie.

The film “Autopsy Room Four” is being helmed by director Ranjeet S. Marwa, with Jon Levin serving as the executive producer.

The narrative explores the thoughts of a man who, following a near-fatal accident, discovers himself confined within an autopsy chamber. As he grapples with his own impending demise, it delves into topics such as dread, endurance, and the enigmatic.

Initially published in Six Stories and Robert Bloch’s Psychos, Autopsy Room Four was compiled in 2002’s collection titled Everything’s Eventual.
