Now, King has given his blessing to an upcoming film he has branded 'b*****t insane'. Taking to social media, the veteran author penned: "You've never seen anything like The Monkey. It's b*****t insane. As someone who has indulged in b*********y from time to time, I say that with admiration."

Horror author Stephen King, whose spine-chilling tales have been adapted into numerous films and TV series, has given his seal of approval to an 'insane' new film that's been dubbed 'sadistic' by early viewers.
