<h2>Other Stephen King-inspired non-horror movies if the scare isn&#8217;t your thing</h2>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you want to watch some King adaptations but aren’t the horror movie type (no shame!) you still have some solid options. THE GREEN MILE and THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, both directed by Frank Darabont, are two powerful dramas that feature unforgettable performances and no scares. <a href="https://t.co/NoyA9NZ7LC">pic.twitter.com/NoyA9NZ7LC</a></p>

<p>Not everyone has it in for the scares and Stephen King has had that taken care of too. Here are a few other non-horror movies adapted from Stephen King&#8217;s books:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/60000417">The Green Mile</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.netflix.com/in/title/70005379">Shawshank Redemption</a></li>
</ul>
<p>With works as critically acclaimed as the ones we&#8217;ve listed, Stephen King and his novels surely are a substantial source of inspiration for movies. Stream these titles on Netflix now!</p>
