I think you're thinking of The Fog by John Carpenter. It starred Jamie Lee
Curtis and was about some undead pirates who returned to a small seaside town
a
century after they were murdered to avenge themselves on their killers'
descendants. It was an original story though, not based on the King story,
which
is one of my favourites and would make a truly excellent film!

Suzze Tiernan followed the Gunslinger to New Dark Tower book.
Grant has released his edition directly from him, or through Betts Books.
Also for for the first time Grant released a number of book to the Banes &
Noble Bookstore Chain (where I got my copy) and a few other major chains.
I believe that the total print run from Grant is 40,000 copies.
The release date for the Plume Trade Paperback is November 4

Yes..Thatis exactly what occurs.When they do the next printing,they are
called trader editions and they do those by the thousands.The first editions

so many go Stateside to the stores that are releasing them,(Betts

assistant: Hi Susie!
Excuse me for butting in here, but i`d given up all hope of seeing Wizards &
Glass in print! Its been an awfully long time since Vol 3 and none of the
bookstores here in the UK have any information on any future releases in this
series. As you run a bookstore (How incredibly handy!!) i don`t suppose i
could
pre-order a copy could i? I really don`t have much hope of seeing it in the
K
anytime soon.Perhaps we could sort something out by email if its not too
presumptuous of me to ask....
Desperation...ahh a great novel.I much preferred it to The Regulators which
wasn`t quite so good IMO.I did like the way the same characters popped up in
both novels but in different roles...most intriguing.Have you read any of the
other series...umm...The Green Mile i think its called? I keep seeing it but
it
hasn`t really captured my interest enough to buy it yet.

  Bonzo leapt happily at Kristoffer Larsson as he shouted Langoliers
  on 30-Dec-1899...
I think Bonzo needs to get its dates right! ;)
Ahh..The Langoliers...one of my all-time favourite stories and the film
was,IMHO,a brilliant adaptation of the novel,unlike some of King`s previous
book-to-film attempts :/
James Herbert did write a novel called The Fog but the film with the ghosts
and
the lighthouse wasn`t based on Herbert`s book.
Really? I haven`t seen that one..is it a short story?
He`s a very prolific writer and most of what he writes is high quality.
Ahh...nearly as fast as me then...unfortunately at that speed i tend to write
Mills & Boon (to put it politely ;)  )
