I'm more in it for the Mike Flanagan of it all, but the brand new Carrie TV show adaptation that came out this month is good so far. I have two episodes to go. |

The original 1970s Carrie adaptation with Sissy Spacek. Captures an era perfectly, and all the female leading actresses are so good. The 1970s mini series of Salems Lot. Great cast. Super creepy thanks to Tobe Hooper’s direction. |

The Mist (2007) I never read the story it's based on, but holy shit I love that movie. It has such a great mix of monster movie vibes, and the bleak-as-fuck ending honestly really sends it home. ETA: there's apparently a black and white version that I've never seen but really want to. |

Interesting! Haven’t heard about this but I’m gonna have to put it on my radar. |

Ohhh I actually haven’t seen Salem’s Lot! I’ll have to add that to my list. I also thought it was just a flick - didn’t realize there was a series. |

King has said he liked the film’s ending better than his own |

M-O-O-N, that spells The Stand (1994). Such a great miniseries. Misery, Stand By Me, The Running Man (1987), and The Dead Zone for movies and 11/22/63 and Under The Dome for TV shows. |

Has no one mentioned The Shining yet? I know that Stephen King dislikes the film and probably everyone has seen it already. But I have to mention it because it is still one of my favorite horror films of all time. Bonus points for the 4K Bluray because it looks absolutely amazing. |

The film had an ending so that checks out! (Both endings are good for different reasons) |

I’m surprised how good Dr Sleep was I felt they did a fantastic job with the cast/characters without significantly editing the story |

I need to dig out my Nightmares & Dreamscapes dvds. I think I liked those. Same with Storm of the Century. |

The bathtub scene still gives me the creeps and when they called back to it in Dr Sleep it scared the shit out of me |

"The Dead Zone" was way better than I thought it'd be. Worth a watch! |

If it’s gonna be Stephen King then it’s gotta be by Frank Darabont, imho. |

The Shining ofc. Yes, it's not super faithful to the source material, and King notoriously hated it, but it is such an all-time classic! |
