Stunk the big one.

Rating: 2/10 (26 November 2007)

This movie was a huge waste of time. I went in excited to see it since this has long been one of my favorite King stories, and figuring that a short story would leave plenty of room for accuracy in the movie. I was left very disappointed. Special effects were cartoonish at best. The filmography played like a made for TV movie (even included the obvious commercial breaks which really messes with continuity in my opinion). Last but not least, anyone who's actually read the story will be very angry with the plot changes. Definitely not worth paying to see in a theater, maybe barely worth the time it will take to watch it when it is released on regular television. Only credit I give it is the first half or so stuck to the book fairly well and the acting wasn't terrible.
