Which of the following movies was not based on a novel by Stephen King?

  • Carrie
  • The Thing
  • Misery
  • The Green Mile
Explanation

The answer is The Thing, and it was not based on a novel by Stephen King. This film, released in 1982, was actually a remake of a 1951 science fiction film titled "The Thing from Another World," which was based on the novella "Who Goes There?" by John W. Campbell Jr. Although Stephen King has written numerous novels that have been adapted into movies, including classics like "The Shining," "Carrie," and "It," The Thing does not fall under King's repertoire.
