    This movie suprisenly enough is pretty good. i watched it when i was younger and was like this is ok and never wanted to watch it again. well i have been going back and watching alot of movies with my wife. the is a really good one. Not scary but man what a wild story. ok acting. but is a good movie.

    Thought it was close to the source material. One of my favorite King books and the movie was fairly much like the book which for most King books turned to films is hard to do. Would have liked it to be a tad bit more brutal but still a good flick.

    Strange and very compelling. George Stark represents the evil in all of us very well.

    This movie couldn’t keep me interested and got boring fast. A disappointing, mediocre effort from an otherwise good director.

    I enjoyed this film. Very slightly above average and an enjoyable watch as long as you don’t mind story driven movies.

    i read somewhere that Kings wife didn’t like this story. that alone is why i read it right away. but it wasn’t very good, overall. the movie is much worse than the story. not missing a lot by not viewing this.

Official Score: 3 / 5
