Co-written with genre master Mick Garris, the Darabont script for The Fly IIis solid enough to make the film a noteworthy addition to cult lists today. The film's notable for its gory and icky special effects, but also for giving humanity to a character in a sequel that didn't call for an emotional side. This is one of Darabont's staples: to compel...
Again, a writer's work, but this time for a remake and not a sequel. Regardless, Darabont's approach to The Blob is fresh and exciting, arousing the audience to like characters in a second as they're cleverly developed in a film with lots of humor and gore. You probably remember this one for the effects, but it's a second feature opportunity for Da...
The Majestic strangely underseen film that is also rare because Darabont didn't write it, and he only directed it. Perhaps, that's why it feels like the third act feels like it lacks a certain conclusion. Nevertheless, a good performance by Jim Carreyis enough to make this one a worthy addition to Darabont's universe. But it's how Darabont makes a ...
The Darabont presence in TV — it's something the industry hasn't used enough. The director has the capacity to create worlds where logic is secondary, and human stories are the most important thing above everything else. In Mob City, L.A. in the 40s is driven by gangsters and a relatively chaotic police department. With only six episodes, Darabont ...
Of course we were going to add this one to the list. The Young Indiana Jones Chroniclesis part of a long forgotten era of TV with a production value that didn't pose a risk for studios. However, Frank Darabont's work is very notable, as he was responsible for keeping the show fresh with compelling arcs. Also, this version of Indy was developed in a...
This Stephen King adaptation of The Green Mileis perhaps the most representative of Darabont's personality in terms of storytelling. The amount of details the film has is impressive which is curious, considering its running time (189 minutes) and the fact that nothing about the film seems random or unnecessary.
Dream Warriors is a fan favorite. The third part in Freddy Krueger's adventures, was written in part by Darabont alongside Craven and other writers. It's not clear what he wrote and what he left out, but what seems transparent about Darabont's role is the final spirit of a film with a tone that wasn't as dark as it could have been. Besides, anyone ...
His body of work was already unique and original, but Darabont's version of The Mistrepresented a genre shift that showed his confidence when dealing with King's universe. This one is full of special effects as it was expected, but Darabont also manages the display of the dark of humanity in the plot. Antagonism is kind of obvious, but Darabont sim...
We like to believe Darabont's the reason why The Walking Deadstayed as relevant as it did for so much time, even if he wasn't fully involved with what the show became and its downfall. It was a show about zombies, that's undeniable. But the development of a post apocalypse utopia wouldn't have been as effective without a script style that compelled...
This is Darabont's finest work, and again, it's a King adaptation. The Shawshank Redemptionis a beautiful story about resilience when residing in Hell, but Darabont develops the film with a distracting personality that distracts the audience from its surprising twist. It's an emotional juggernaut that shows Darabont's ability to form horrific world...
