Haven't seen it, yet. Being a big Stephen King (especially when he wrote as Richard Bachman), I will eventually watch it. One of the to TV/Movie books, The Stand, I felt they did really pretty well with the characters and all. Of course, they had a whole mini series to work with there.

 

Here's one little known. The movie Maximum Overdrive. This was based on a short story by Stephen King. Anyone fans know the real name? No cheating. ;)

In one of his earlier collections of short stories, Night Shift, it was called Trucks.

 

I've read all but six of his books :)

Awesome. Even gave the book name. There are quite a few movies and various 30min shows based on Stephen King writings many don't know about. One series that took me awhile because it seemed so different than the other (didn't think I'd like them) was the Dark Tower series. Ended up being one of the best series I've ever read. Even if you're generally not a Stephen King fan, it's an excellent read. And if you are, there are so many references to his other books. He loves to connect all his different books together in one way or another. Kinda cool.

is absolutely the dumbest fucking movie I have ever seen. Ever. How did this even make it to theaters?

Agreed. Worst movie I've seen this year. Acting was good -- the ending was so fucked up that it nullified every good thing about the movie.

The good guy or hero in all of his books always gets fucked over in the end somehow. Well... usually anyway.

Have you read Insomnia? Perfect references to Pet Sematary, It, and The Dark Tower series, with the latter being the basis for the story.
