About the title
Twin brothers Hal and Bill find a wind-up monkey toy that belonged to their father in the attic. With each flash of its mechanical eyes, deaths follow — brutal, inexplicable, like a chain of sinister coincidences. Years later, the nightmare returns, and the grim game continues. Darkness thickens, fear intensifies, and reality becomes spectral, turning what's happening into a terrifying labyrinth. No one knows when the monkey will clap its hands for the last time, and who will disappear next. An unseen force drives this game, and the rules remain a mystery. Based on the short story of the same name by Stephen King.
