The Mist (2007,  R)
The Mist 4.0 Stars
This Stephen King's horror-shocking is undoubtedly brilliant. Chilling, suspenseful and terrifically performed. Marcia Gay Harden is particularly effective as a religious zealot like Carrie's mother in King's first feature movie based on his novel, Carrie, and the CG creature effects are impressive.
A monster movie where human may be the worst monsters of all, this is a gripping thriller that climaxes in one of the cruelest and most downbeat endings since Gwyneth Paltrow's head turned up in a box at the end of Seven.
Highly recommended!

Stephen King's Desperation 3.0 Stars
Fine horror made-in-TV adapted by Stephen King about the town becomes hell with the demon-possessed in the human beings. I'm very impressived for Tom Skerritt, Annabeth Gish and a young boy made their own great encourage to fight their own lives against evil.

Stephen King's Rose Red (,  PG-13)
Stephen King's Rose Red 4.0 Stars
Incredibele fright and haunting story that Stephen King ever created. While the basic plot structure echoes Shirley Jackson's Haunting of Hill House, this film stands as an homage to that earlier work and serves as a far superior remake than the 1999's The Haunting.

Storm of the Century 3.5 Stars
Brilliant Stephen King's long horror-thriller storm film made in television and I like Tim Daly's character who has the greatest courage and fearless than the population of Little Fall. Colm Feore does a wonderful performance as the devil aka Angus Linoge. His flaw teeth shocked me a bit at the first scene when he quietly growled.

Not a bad drama adaptation of the Stephen King novella movie about a high school student obsessed with the Holocaust recognizes a former Nazi officer and blackmails him into sharing the details of his death-camp atrocities. It's a bit awfully of the evil.

Stephen King's The Stand (,  Unrated)
Stephen King's The Stand 5.0 Stars
Really exciting and very long supernatural movie about few immune survivors gather into two camps: the forces of good and of evil after a "super-flu" virus decimates the United States. Great strong emsemble cast including Gary Sinsie, Molly Ringwald and Rob Lowe. I like Rob Lowe's character as an innocent deaf-mute and his training sign languages and gestures are very impressive. This is the bestest and based on a novel by Stephen King TV movie I ever watched.

Sometimes They Come Back 3.0 Stars
Chilling thriller gets good mileage from Stephen King's book. Tim Matheson is superb as the high school teacher who returns to his hometown 30 years after his brother died in a freak accident. The bullies responsible, who also died in the accident, come back one by one to seek revenge against Matheson.

This George A. Romero and the modern master of printed terror Stephen King film is funny and scary tribute to the E.C. horror comics of the 1950s. Like Vault of Horror and Tales from the Crypt, two titles from that period, it's an anthology of ghoulish bedtime stories.
