I admit DH is more the Stephen King fan than I am, but I was looking forward to seeing this movie. I was really disappointed. It wasn't even a good cheesy scary movie. It was just a disturbing study on how fear turns people into lunatics. It wasn't even really a good commentary on that either.
The movie is bent- evil wins. Its not the first time King has ended a story this way, but it just really disappoints me when he does. I was left with the same anger and resentment I had after watching "Storm Of The Century." Granted I haven't read the print versions, but I can't help but feel so cheated.

Thanks for the information on this movie. I hadn't seen any reviews for it..
I haven't even heard of this film. Hmmmm........I am usually a Stephen King fan. Sad to hear this movie wasn't any good. :(
Did Uncle Popcorn like it???
I haven't seen the movie. Many, many years ago I read the short story. Didn't look like it was gonna be a very good movie.
Uncle Popcorn and DS12 gave the movie 2.5 stars. DS9 gives it 1.5.
We bought this one for my StepMom last week, she's a Stephen King fan. I'm glad we didn't see it. I'm not as much of a fan as she is. I hadn't heard of it either. ON the bright side, Sweeney Todd comes out tomorrow. :-D I didn't get to see this one in theaters because of it's R-rating....but...I am ready to get DEPPmerized on the small screen. :-D
I don't think there was any King movie that I've liked a lot. I love his books and find that my imagination is so much scarier than the films.
