Misery

Bestselling novelist Paul Sheldon believes he's finally escaped the clutches of his most famous creation, Misery Chastain, by killing her off to pursue more serious literary endeavors. However, fate intervenes when a near-fatal car crash in a remote Colorado location leaves him severely injured. His rescuer, self-proclaimed "number one fan" Annie Wilkes, initially appears as his salvation. But Annie's adoration quickly devolves into terrifying obsession when she discovers Paul's manuscript and learns of Misery's demise. Enraged and distraught, Annie holds Paul captive in her isolated home, demanding he resurrect Misery in a new novel written exclusively for her. Broken, drugged, and at the mercy of his increasingly unhinged captor, Paul must navigate a delicate dance of survival, using his wits and the power of storytelling to escape Annie's brutal and sadistic demands before his literary prison becomes his tomb.
