Well too bad! With "The Life of Chuck," Flanagan is only bringing the feels. Sure, the specter of death looms large over the Tom Hiddleston-led drama - plus its interest in the otherworldly is clear - but the story forgoes King's usual frights for a far more straightforward and sentimental tale of all the vital and divine components that make up a life.

The Life of Chuck unfolds in three acts in reverse chronological order. The film opens with Chuck's demise and gradually peels the layers off of how he lived his life and what brought him to where he is now. The story delves into human mortality through a surrealist and darkly comedic lens.
