I did enjoy the book, and I hope to read the other stories from that collection (especially Shawshank). You're so right about the quality of Stephen King adaptations... I'm so nervous about the upcoming Bag of Bones movie.<br /><br />Anyway, I WILL watch Stand by Me before year end and I hope my experience is just as positive!Two Bibliomaniacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442484227213602009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-37757475598498554292011-11-24T17:17:34.928+00:002011-11-24T17:17:34.928+00:00The Shining is good as a horror movie, but it'...The Shining is good as a horror movie, but it's wrong wrong WRONG so I don't count it as a Stephen King adaptation hehe! And I haven't seen Pet Semetary (although the kid in it looks CREEPY!) and I've only seen bits of Carrie- it upsets me cause John Travolta's all mean! But I have seen The Stand, and the other The Shining, and bits of It and Salem's Lot, and they're soooooo bad... Also, yes, watch Stand by Me some more! SO good :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-12561988907337402852011-11-24T14:04:12.314+00:002011-11-24T14:04:12.314+00:00I haven't seen this film since I was a kid, I&...I haven't seen this film since I was a kid, I've been meaning to re-watch it for years now, but somehow I always forget it when I'm wandering around the video store. <br /><br />Also, I can't believe you forgot The Shining, Carrie and Pet Semetary...some of the best/most classic of horror films :) Haha, although the crappy adaptations definitely do far outweigh the good!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09259549933849264277noreply@blogger.com
