Firestarter (2022)

This is my first review for 2022. I am trying to be significantly more positive and tone down my language significantly. I know what you’re asking yourself at this very moment. Why would I choose a remake of one of my all-time favorite Stephen King films to be my first review where I am attempting […]

Sleepwalkers (1992)

How many people actually saw Sleepwalkers in the theater? Sleepwalkers was released on April 10, 1992. I am almost positive that I saw this with my mom on April 18 or 19. I remember it being Easter weekend. I feel bad that I dragged my mom to see Sleepwalkers. The trailer was adequate. Stephen King’s […]

Doctor Sleep (2019)

I just finished watching IT and IT Chapter Two. Mentally, I feel exhausted. This is yet another long-ass film. I’ve only seen Doctor Sleep once. I remember enjoying it but I think it dragged a bit at the beginning for me. Hopefully, my memory is incorrect, as it often is. As you know, Doctor Sleep […]

IT Chapter Two (2019)

I have never seen IT Chapter Two. I loved IT (2017). I bought IT when it came out and intended on reviewing it here. But I delayed and delayed, as I tend to do. There’s no such thing as the right time to do something like that. Now is my time because I am doing […]

IT (2017)

If you know me on any personal level, you most likely know how much I love Stephen King’s IT. My shower curtain has Tim Curry as Pennywise. I am currently wearing a shirt saying “We all float down here”. I have Pennywise cereal, figurines, Funkos, and had long considered getting a Pennywise tattoo. It’s fair […]

The Dead Zone (1983)

I’m pretty sure I saw this once in the late ’90s. I remember the SNL skit parodying the film, and that was delightful. It’s on the Best of Christopher Walken on SNL DVD that I own. The Dead Zone is one of the early Stephen King film adaptations. They even did a TV series that […]

The Langoliers (1995)

I know The Langoliers isn’t great. A lot of people would call The Langoliers below average. I call The Langoliers nostalgic happiness in the form of a mini-series that never truly knew what it was doing. In the same way that I find charm in The Happening, I do derive joy from this mess. It […]

Salem’s Lot (1979)

Once upon a time, probably 6-8 years ago, I watched Salem’s Lot for my October marathon. I want to post what I had to say about it. “Sigh. I wanted to like this movie. I had never seen it, and I gave it a solid effort. but it just wasn’t happening for me. Maybe if […]

The Stand (2020) – Ep. 9 “The Circle Closes”

Okay, we get some new original content here. I bet the IMDB scores for this have to be decent, right? The ratings per episode, by episode, starting with 1 and the episode number is in parentheses are: (1) 6.9, (2) 6.6, (3) 6.8, (4) 6.9, (5) 7.0, (6) 6.6, (7) 6.6, (8) 6.5. This episode […]

The Stand (2020) – Ep. 8 “The Stand”

This looks like the group will be put on trial. That sounds dumb as hell. Maybe it will be funny or better than expected. I also hope to see Kojak help out Stu. That was one of my favorite aspects of the book that the 94 version didn’t show enough of. And of course, this […]
