    And I would love to see someone really good do a film for The Long Walk. That could be amazing if done right.

    I read that when I was in 8th grade...hard to shake some of those visuals. I'm afraid the movie version wouldn't stand up well.

    Honestly, IT scared the hell out of me when it came out in 1991...Tim Curry did an excellent job as Pennywise.

    Compared to the Stephen King version of The Shining in '97, I'll take the Kubrick version.

    I always go back and forth with this one. As an avid SK fan...Kubrick's version of the Shining is pretty much a disgrace to the book. That being said, I still think it's an excellent movie in its own right. I have totally disassociated it from the book in order to appreciate it for what it is. Some really amazing and unforgettable scenes in that movie.

    FYI - SK's working on a sequel to the book, should be out next year! :clap:
    I wish I could disassociate too. I'm all full of anger about it. :lol:
    Yeah, I wonder what that book's going to be like!

    duely noted....the mist...i've always wanted to watch that one and always said,...if i ever see it on...i'll stop and watch it....I will take you up on the review and not waste my time...
    thanks for the post...

    I watched The Mist yesterday afternoon. Stephen King story, Frank Darabont direction, a lot of actors from The Walking Dead. Has to be good, right.

    My God, that was 2 hours of my life wasted.

    The Girl- about Alfred Hitchcock and his relationship with Tippie Hedron on the set of The Birds.

    Pretty good flick.

    I was in the same situation. Buddy of mine told me about the film about a year ago. Saw it on Sci-Fi this past Sunday and decided to give it a whirl. That movie had a lot of potential.

    I watched it on Netflix a couple years ago ... I rather liked it. It was pretty similar to King's story, with the exception of the ending (which I thought was better than the book, anyway).

    Just watched a horror movie called The Bay. A pretty decent inclusion to the found footage genre thats spun in a slightly different way. Not bad at all.
