Far and Away is scarey.

Lawnmower man features a chimp-cam lets not forget.

WARS OF ARMAGEDDON (Karaoke Version) (Sparkle Motion), Wednesday, 20 January 2010 06:28 (fourteen years ago) link

he didn't like Salem's Lot??

I'd take out Lawnmower Man since Stephen King successfully sued to get his name off it. Replace it with Creepshow!

shouldn't that give it like extra-special bonus points?

For badness? Not really, since it's been established that King has terrible judgement about which of his own adaptations are good and which are bad.

true but in this case i feel like it's a special moment of critical/kingian rapprochement

i dunno, if i was holding a king marathon i'd want King-ian craziness, not some lame-o CGI bullshit that shares nothing with his work but a title - save that for the "oh wow COMPUTER ANIMATION" marathon with Hackers, etc.

watching "Graveyard Shift" now, and while the horror aspect is largely forgettable, I like its depiction of late-20th Century blue-collar life in New England

Oh yeah and Brad Dourif's in it

And random googling pops up with this:

JJ Abrams and the Lost guys drive up to Maine to hang out with the guy, and wind up going to the movies with him.

The langoliers is good until the langoliers show up. That is some really bad CGI.

xxp: Graveyard Shift was one of my favorite King stories when I was a kid. As such, I have both always and never wanted to see the film.

Watching 'Christine' now. This is surprisingly watchable, due to John Carpenter knowing how to make a movie, doing the music, and the flick being filled with character actors(including Harry Dean Stanton!)

Saw Sleepwalkers, Secret Window, and Needful Things in the last few days.

Sleepwalkers is now on my list for my potential Stephen King viewing night.

And Alice Krige was hottttttt in it. And Madchen Amick.

And on a related note, the scene where house cats save the day:
