This film and Stephen King's original short story are both called The Lawnmower Man, and that's about it. You might think the identical titles are just a coincidence, but apparently not — several promotional posters referred to the film as Stephen King's The Lawnmower Man, at least until the author sued to distance himself from the film. The court explicitly forbade New Line Cinema from using Stephen King's name in conjunction with the film and required them to pay him 2.5 million dollars in damages. Not content with the ruling, New Line attempted to stealth market the film under the name "Stephen King's The Lawnmower Man" in several major cities. New Line Cinemas was found to be in contempt of court and had to pay King $10,000 per day until they removed his name from all associated products. King did like the film, mind you. It just wasn't his story, which led to the suit. The film does have a short scene where Peter's abusive father is butchered by a telekinetically steered lawnmower that's modeled after the short story, but, apart from both the movie and the short story having to do with lawnmowers, that's about it.
They knew they had a piece of shit. They never felt the need to call The Running Man Stephen King's The Running Man. Funny thing is the original story is trash too. Why they chose to try to adapt it I have no idea.

The lawnmower man is in reference to the tard, because he's a landscaper
The dude’s job was to mow lawns before he got taken in as a Guinea pig if I remember correctly. That’s about it.
There’s probably some underlying metaphorical meaning about his job requiring him to operate a machine but I’m not smart enough to write about it.
The point is even a simple lawnlower hillbilly room temperature IQ mong managed can become a literal god, that you can't take reality for granted due to the progress of science and technology opening up new possibilities not just good but also potentially bad
God of coals
remember when he beat chenso man
AND THEN YOU KNOW
I will not forgive ShreddedNerd for letting me know about your shitty subculture
I still don't know what this had to do with lawnmowers.
