Not too bad a SK movie. I don't remember it coming to the big screen, but I saw it late one night on some movie channel and liked it. Simple easy movie, great for an occassional insomniac like me.

MCT:July 25, 2008I LOVE this movie. Stephen King is my favorite author and I think that the cast in this movie did a really great job. This movie will leave you scared long after you've finished watching it!
-
MCT:July 20, 2008Another Stephen King movie...and it's actually really, really good! Haven't read the book, so the story was new to me. Contains some very creepy scenes that might even give you chills at moments. Due to its length, this would be an ideal movie to watch during a winter storm afternoon.

One of the most accurate depictions of the way small towns function. I'd almost swear King based it off my town, but he does live in the same state, so close enough.
-
MCT:April 20, 2008"I'm a little tea pot short and stoute, here is my handle here is my spout." If you watch the movie you'll get it.
One of King's best movie adaptations. A strange man shows up during a huge blizzard and starts toying with the towns foke saying he'll stop when they "Give me what I want and I'll go away." Definatly worth checking out. -
MCT:April 16, 2008this wasn't the best Stephen King movie I've seen...the bad guy almost seems like a pedophile, so, um, yeah, not cool.

Hella long movie, but it was just incredible. Great cast, storyline, effects. It was scary and weird and freaky. The bad guy was awesome.

Very good movie, gotta watch it at night with the lights off! I've watched it many, many times and each time I seem to pick up on things that I missed the time before.

This is a really creepy movie, which is the way I love it. One of the things that stays with you is the fact that you NEVER know much about Andre Linoge, and that makes this creepy all the way to the end. Another thing I've wondered is what was with the cane, was it the leader between itself and Linoge, or did I read too much into that? Anyway, this is one of King's few shining moments in the way of Stephen King movies, and I never miss a chance to watch.

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.

A long tv movie about a entity who comes to a small town to get what he wants. Suspenseful and puzzling truly something to look at.

How perfect was Tim Daly as Michael Anderson in this movie. I took a day off work to have a Tim Daly marathon. I love that the Sci-Fi channel plays this often; although I do have the unopened DVD.

This film is really great not only does it do a brilliant cover to ephen Kings book it keeps you on the edge!!!! Don't let the fact that the film is sooo long stop you from watching it....once you get into it you'll wis it was longer!

Could have been shorter but it meets its mark by the end of the film. Colm Feore plays Andrew brilliantly. Andrew Linoge comes to an island and appears human.
But he seems to know dark secrets about the townspeople. Like cheating on eachother,Sats,pedophiles,druggies..howcould he ? Creepy! Another great jewel thanks to Stephen King. -

I thought this was a great movie. I like a lot of movies by Stephen King. I didn't think it was scary but it was still a great movie. One of the better ones i've seen by Stephen King.

Now why didn't the demon just take a kid in the first place. He had to go torture a whole small town and killed many.

Trapped on an island, held hostage by an evil... and the evil is in prison. How can a prisoner keep a whole town in prison? This is the beginning of a great cat and mouse game written by Stephen King. Colm Feore, who to me was unknown till I saw this is so friendly and yet so dastardly, it is a perfect mix and makes him an accomplished villain. If you can, watch this all in one sitting.

Det hela börjar med ett brutalt mord på en av öns innevånare. Förövaren, Linoge, sätter sig efter mordet lugnt framför TV:n, medan han väntar på att Mike ska komma och arrestera honom. Det är något ovanligt och underligt med Linoge?
Folket på Little Tall Island börjar snart, till synes helt oplanerat, begå självmord eller ha ihjäl varann. Folk som tidigare varit fromma som lamm. Samtidigt börjar det dyka upp ett kryptiskt meddelande på olika ställen, alltid samma meddelande "Give Me What I Want And I'll Go Away". Så småningom förstår man att det är Linoge som ligger bakom allt som hänt. Man inser även att det är han som vill ha något av dem? frågan är bara vad?
Förutom Pestens Tid är detta en av Kings långkörare som verkligen skapar en stämning man bara inte kan hålla sig ifrån. Kings ambition med Storm of the Century var att skriva en roman för TV och det tycker jag han verkligen har lyckats med. När eftertexterna rullar vill önskar man bara att King tar tag i pennan för att skriva vidare på en fortsättning.
