Did anyone watch the made-for-television movie from the Stephen King book? The book was awesome, the movie was cheesy but what can you expect...Idol was on 🙂

If you watched, did you notice that the bag of pot had a smiley face on it? Couldn't tell if it was the CI smiley. Just wondering if CI is introducing a new line-up??

I also saw that I mentioned it to my wife. The movie was a little stupid but better then Idol in my opinion.

FUDGE!!!

did i miss it! i'm an idiot. when was it on?

let me say that even though i had some seriously LOW expectations of this, as a BIG sk fan, i really wanted to watch it.

i have to admit, of all the made for tv crapola attatched to sk's name, the stand was pretty good.

It was on Tuesday night for 3 hours if you didn't Tivo it (probably 1.5 hours of actual movie).

I really liked most of the actors...especially Ron Perlman...he was awesome. But the movie wasn't near as scary as the book....one of my most favorite SK books.

I did not read the regulators. There are many I haven't read. Maybe one book under his other name. Was it a good one?

it was under bachman's name. it was related to desperation. something thats kinda trippy about king, he bleeds some of his stories together, more tghan just a lot of them taking place in castle rock. those two were some interesting stories though. but not his best work. i can talk about this guy all day, so i'll just leave it there-
