This has the creepy overtones of a Stephen King story and the movie does a very good job of delivering on the story.
On the surface we see a successful author of lightweight mysteries, visiting her fans, and enjoying their adulation.
Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, she has a childhood trauma that has given her some unique coping abilities that she has used to be successful.
When trauma hits once again, she copes because she has a genius ability to compartmentalize everything.
At times, I wondered if this was going to be a rehash of Misery or perhaps another take on The Burning Bed.
The movie successfully mixes the seriousness of a near death with lighthearted satire.
