Cujo Christine The one about the 18 Wheeler that was posessed, it had a goblin mask on the front. catlover79 05-16-2007, 05:22 PM I've always had a fondness for Firestarter. It's very hokey and cheesy now, but 9-year-old Drew Barrymore really held her own. Liza 05-18-2007, 06:46 PM Gosh, I've seen almost every single one of his movies. My mom was a huge Stephen King junkie in the 80s and she had me watching them from a really young age. *Shrug* some parents show their kids Barney. My mom showed me The Shining :crazy: Okay, out of his feature films, my favorites are: -The Shining - scared the cr@p out of me when I was seven! Still does. -The Shawshank Redemption - not a scary one, but a fantastic story -Misery - Kathy Bates definately earned that Oscar. -Needful Things - most people don't remember it, but really, that's an interesting one, with a great cast. -The Green Mile - Another not-really-scary one, but very dramatic and thought-provoking. Of his made for TV movies: -IT - I still can't believe it's Tim Curry under all that makeup. And that had the best ensemble cast I've ever seen in a TV-movie. Remember John Ritter in that? -The Stand - Another great ensemble piece, and thank God they didn't try and squeeze it into a feature film. It's long, but it's got a lot to say, and it's just really, really well done. -The Langoliers - Yeah, it's kind of hokey, but for some reason I've always loved this one. My whole family sits down whenever this is on and watches it through to the end. Not his best story, but it's an interesting one. Liza 05-18-2007, 06:54 PM Christine Really? Wow, I'm sorry, but I hated that movie. I thought the whole premise was stupid and the special effects were dumb - yeah, I just didn't get it. Wasn't crazy about Cujo, Storm of the Century, or Rose Red either. They all seemed like recycles of his earlier stories. Riding the Bullet and Dolores Claibourne were, I'm sorry to say it - boring! I never thought I'd say that about an SK movie, but they were! I know I'm the only one who's going to say it, but I never liked Salem's Lot. I don't think vampires are his genre, let Ann Rice have it. catlover79 05-18-2007, 08:55 PM How could I forget The Green Mile? I cried at the end when I saw it in the theater. *ROGER* 05-18-2007, 09:00 PM Not in any kind of order: Misery The Shining Delores Claiborne Carrie IT Needful Things The Green Mile Ohio8 05-20-2007, 12:15 PM Misery/The Shining/Stand by Me/Silver Bullet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Honey.
