What ...I think it's hard to judge these movies. What do you want out of an SK movie? A great adaptation? A great movie? A scary movie? A time waster? I guess the same goes for his books too. Uncle Stevie makes a lot of ice cream, what flavor do you want?<br /><br />Here's a top 5 list based on these ideas:<br /><br />Favorite adaptation: The Mist<br />Favorite fun movie: Creepshow<br />Favorite good movie: Shawshank<br />Favorite bad movie: Maximum Overdrive<br />Desert Island movie: The Shining<br /><br />and as a backup I really like Sometimes They Come Back for some reason. I like the tone of the movie and since the story was never really a "classic" to me the dropping of the satanic subplot didn't really bother me. I think they nailed the nostalgia portion of the story, since many of Steve's stories boil down to You Can't Go Home again. This one you can't go home again b/c demons will kill you and your family.<br />-mikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1175798629534874434.post-4718240883652361902012-07-15T02:26:43.304-07:002012-07-15T02:26:43.304-07:00You should definitely keep “Return to Salem’s Lot”...You should definitely keep “Return to Salem’s Lot” unwatched<br />At the moment:<br /><br />5 The Mist<br />4 Salem's Lot 1979<br />3 Misery<br />2 The Green Mile<br />1 Stand by Me<br /><br />Runner-ups: Pet Sematary, The Shawshank Redemption, Storm of the Century<br /><br />BTW I checked some of Fukunaga's films, and I'm pretty stoked with him doing It. I feel he can do the atmosphere of the book justice. So here's hoping a well done adaptation of It can finally get into my top 5!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1175798629534874434.post-43299287756469193502012-07-15T01:29:07.292-07:002012-07-15T01:29:07.292-07:005.
