Book was good. I thought the movies sucked.
I didn't think much of the first movie (or, for that matter, the book), but the second is far worse.

Fun fact: the house in the first movie that burns down at the end, the one Fred Gwynne's character lived in, was built for the movie near my parents' house. We drove past it on the way to the store. So exciting.

    Well Pet Sematary certainly wasen’t his best book but I liked it ok. I thought the movie was terrible. I almost never watch second ones,

    FYI: For those who are interested . . . I understand the remake of Steven Kings "The Stand" with Whoopi Goldburg as "Mother Abigail" is premiering on Thursday, Dec. 17, streaming exclusively on CBS All Access. . . . You might or might not say this is appropriate timing, especially since this remake was filming almost a year before the recent pandemic. . . . AND - After seeing some of the trailers looks as good if not better then the original 1994 miniseries - I don't have CBS Access but gonna try to see this version somehow .



    I'll be stealing it for sure.

    The Stand was a decent King adaptation. Most of them are lousy, though.

    I dvr’d a bunch of movies around Halloween. I just watched Shawshank and Evil Dead after I made lunch. That was fun. Prison must really suck. And hell. :lol: I wish I had The Green Mile to watch. I may read some new books from SK I haven’t had a chance to read. I forget the names and too lazy to go look. Books are always better. I’m not big on watching movies but I watched a ton of horror movies around Halloween.

    I thought they did a decent job with Salems Lot. The problem being most of Kings books are thick and they don't fit well in a movie.

    I think it's a good movie but a bad adaptation.

    Are we talking about the same movie? I don't remember if I read it or not - I used to read everything King put out - but it's a freaking awesome movie! REDRUM!

    I'll have to see if I can find it and read it again.

    I don't really like it myself (JF is supposed to be better) but the one I would love to try is Holy Holy Grail (original) but then I heard the new version isn't as good. For now, I just mix caramel and vanilla in my tobacco mix (which is kinda nutty) It's really a "desert" tobacco mix but I love it.
    eh I don't much care for tobacco vapes but as this was a sample I figured I should at least try it
    flavorwise it's not bad (as far as tobacco's go) and I could enjoy it if it weren't so freaking harsh
    I added 5 drops of lb fresh cream to it, which usually will smooth over most vapes but this one is still harsh...going to try some more...

    I never liked that one back when I got. Couldn’t get by the crappy taste. IMO
