FAVORITE Stephen King Movie
 
Which one do you think is the best?

Tazz 07-24-04 06:45 PM

Green Mile, Secret Window, and The Shining

Garrett 07-24-04 07:01 PM

'Salem's Lot and Stanley Kubrick's The Shining are the only really good ones in my opinion.

jrs 07-24-04 07:04 PM

The Shining, Christine, Green Mile and The Dead Zone.

Stand by me has always been a fav of mine.

Green Mile was awesome... But Secret Window is one of my all time favorite movies and it stars the Pimp Johnny Depp... Gotta go w/ it.

Tazz 07-24-04 07:38 PM

Secret Window was too short. I forgot to mention Shawshank Redemption also one of my favorites

I agree on all accounts... Even if King didn't like Kubricks interpretation of the film..... I would also like to add "Stand by me" Cory Feldman's best role.

Hmm, I have to say The Shining... because it's one of my all time favorite movies. Also, "It" was highly enjoyable but for different reasons. It's wasn't the quality, it's just that clowns scare the crap out of me!

The Shining was the best, although none of them live up to the novels.

mack 07-25-04 05:52 PM

I've never seen Stand By Me or the Green Mile, and I never really thought of Shawshank though it is a good one.

AboveTheClouds 07-25-04 07:58 PM

OH I forgot Rose Red.... AWESOME movie......

Caitlyn 07-25-04 08:46 PM

The Shining - Stanley Kubrick's
Shawshank Redemption
Stand By Me
The Green Mile


And The Stand wasn't bad…

KittyJunkie 07-26-04 12:40 AM

Ack!! Too many!

But on the top of my list (also a few of my most loved movies of all time):
- The Stand
- The Dead Zone (I haven't seen the movie, but if it were anything like the book, it would most definitely kick butt)
- Misery
- The Langoliers
and The Green Mile (The only movie that I forked out an estimated S$26 to watch!)
