gayga (2127 KP) rated Carrie (1976) in Movies
Dec 6, 2017 (Updated Dec 6, 2017)
The 1st of Stephen King's books to be made into a movie and I would consider one of his best.
I particularly like the music in the movie, the way that it is both menacing and shows Carrie's innocence.
Also a cracking ending which has been copied many times but never bettered.

I loved loved loved this book! Wow!
I listened to the audiobook continuously from start to finish with barely any breaks! Each chapter examines a different patient and/or situation Stephen Grosz has seen as a practicing psychoanalyst. Some stories are relatable, some are insightful, and some are sad. I can't wait to recommend this book to everyone I know!

My Personal Opinion
I like Stephen King as an author and have loved everything I have read of his up to this point. For me this book feel short. I'm not a huge fan of psychological horror and that's what this felt like to me. The book was ok enough that I finished it but it isn't one of my favorites.

Pet Sematary (2019) just goes to show that when it comes to certain stories, sometimes read is better.
Handsomely produced and atmospherically shot, this re-adaptation of Stephen King’s powerful exploration of grief serves to underline the key message of the original novel: it’s best to let dead things rest...

Dean (6925 KP) rated The Midnight Meat Train (2008) in Movies
Feb 10, 2018
A pretty decent horror film based on the short story by Clive Barker, which is a bit Stephen King like. It's very bloody and gruesome but the cgi effects make it less shocking. Overall a very simple idea for a film well executed but the cgi effects are over done and the story is a bit too straight forward most of the time.
Fantastic as usual!
Stephen King once again does not disappoint! A definite must read. This book will draw you in and you'll find yourself sitting up all night trying to reach the end. Follow a group of strangers as they try to navigate a new world after the use of cell phones devastates the planet in a completely unexpected phenomenon.

Great read
I usually struggle with reading Stephen king, maybe because they're always very paranormal. But I loved this, kind of a cross with a detective book with a paranormal twist. Which was perfect for me. I couldn't put it down, but limited myself each day so I could appreciate what I was reading a bit more.
Definitely worth a read.
