Sorry Right Number


DVD talk has a very informative review of the final season of Tales From The Darkside. Of course, this is important to the S.K. universe since the series was inspired by Creepshow.
.
Disk two contains an episode written by Stephen King, "Sorry right number." The article summarizes, "a woman named Katie gets a bizarre phone call warning her that her husband is going to die - he's still around, however, and appears to be fine. She ignores it, but then something happens, he doesn't make it to the hospital, and he does die. Later, Katie gets a phone call from herself, which adds to her confusion."
.
Sorry Right Number also appears in Nightmares and Dreamscapes. It is interesting that the story is printed as a teleplay, not a story. King also did this with Storm of the Century. I'm sure there's a lot to learn reading King scripts, but I always miss his sharp narration.
