Great Scare That Will Leave You Sleepless

Rating: 8/10 (2 February 2008)

Like all Stephen King adaptations, the book was better. But to tell you the truth, I think they did one of the best jobs ever on this one. It scared me to death, and I had trouble sleeping. The monumental "Heeeeere's Johnny!" thing will never die. That was classic horror at it's best. Jack Nicholson is one of the best actors I've ever seen. He really pulled this off. I'm an actor, and believe it or not, a phsycopath like that is hard to pull off. But of course, being Jack Nicholson, he pulled it off and made you believe it. This movie will go down in history as one of the greatest horror movies of all time. You'll be sleeping with your lights on when you see this one.
