Set in a post-war America where money is short and military despots rule, a chilling annual contest rivets a rattled nation. Fifty boys picked by lottery enter a televised marathon of pure will. The boys must walk, and keep walking, until they drop. Only one contestant can survive. But the winner is granted the ultimate prize: riches beyond belief and any wish he desires.
“This ferocious adaptation of Stephen King’s 1979 novella as a passion play about class solidarity.” ~Justin Clark, Slant Magazine
“Director Lawrence and screenwriter J.T. Mollner’s take on The Long Walk is a reminder of why King’s stories have historically been well-suited for the screen, replicating the blend of melancholy, coming-of-age character study, and fatalistic horror that defined the very best adaptations of his work.” ~Alistair Ryder, Looper
