Oh damn, this doesn't look great, THIS IS AWESOME!
Of course, that's the danger of casting judgement on less than a minute of footage, to be fair (and hopefully not a killjoy), to someone who'd never read or heard of King there might not be much to differentiate all this from your standard teenager possessed genre flick.
However, this is King, and one thing he's known for is taking old trope and making them respectable again, and besides, I'm of the opinion that visuals just don't matter as much as character, dialogue, story and acting (guess it comes from having Return of the Jedi and Back to the Future as first movie memories) so this looks like it could be awesome.
I don't know man, she's just not right for the role. She's pretty and skinny and she was in those 30 rock episodes where she's a jerk. It's fine that Sissy Spacek played the role being skinny but she looked un-real, even alien-like I think that's why she was so believable in that role. Hit girl is in so many things, it's just another movie for her to be in. It definitely isn't separating itself from the countless terrible Dimension movies so far. -mike
