Stephen King

[Larry The Pickle]

HIA movie was a good movie too. Normally not my kind of movie, but I still enjoyed it.

Nightmares And Dreamscapes From The Stories Of Stephen King was very mixed.

Night one was very good with Battleground, and Crouch End.
Night two was dissapointing with The End Of The Whole Mess, and Umney's Last Case
Night three was really great with The Road Virus Heads North, and The Fifth Quarter.
Night four was pretty bad with Autopsy Room Four, and You Know They Got One Heck Of A Band.

I've read all these short stories, and all of them are better as short stories except for the phenominal Battleground.

would you recommend Cujo? I checked it out from the library but haven't started it yet.

I finished 'Salems Lot. Dude, that scared me.

I saw the commercial for Nightmares and Dreamscapes: From The Stories of Stephen King several times in the theater, and it looked quite interesting. Since you've seen them, how is the content? Is there a lot of bad language and innapropriate scenes?

I haven't read any of his books, but I heard that he got hit when he was walking on the side of the highway so hard that he landed 14 feet from the pavement, and didn't die.

Yes. I wouldn't reccommend of watching Autopsy Room Four. Umney's Last Case had alot of making out. I think they all had some swearing except for Battleground which is ALL music.

I finished 'Salems Lot. Dude, that scared me.

It wasn't good enough to RECOMEND it, but yes it was aight. The movie wasn't very good though. Salem's Lot I did very much enjoy, but as in all of his books, didn't find it the least bit "scary".

I am almost done wit The Talisman. I have very much enjoyed it so far, though it does seem long at points.

[EUCC]

Yeah, in his "About Writing" or whatever his non-fiction book on writing was, he talked about his accident.

Okay, so I found it scarey...

What do you recommend then, if not Cujo?

Trinarius, I don't know about alot of his movies, but most of his books have language and content that would be considered...."R-rated" The Girl who loved Tom Gordon I think was his mildest one I've read.

[Larry The Pickle]

Oh go right ahead and read Cujo, I just meant it wasn't one of his best.

I do really reccomend Dreamcatcher, Desperation, The Regulators, The Dark Half, The Shining, The Talisman, Firestarter, The Dead Zone, Eyes Of The Dragon, The Gunslinger (I only read the first of the series), From A Buick 8, 3 out of four stories in Four Past Midnight, The Green Mile, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, Misery, Salem's Lot, Thinner,

One's I don't find good enough to recomend: Pet Cemetary, Cujo, and Dolores Claiborne.

Pet Cemetary didn't get to anything exciting or really interesting till about three quarters way through
Dolores Claiborne didn't evn get there.
I don't know about Cujo... that would be the best of the three, but.......

Go ahead and be scared, I'm just one of those people who don't get scared easily. I think that's why I watch scarey movies, because I'm looking for one that will.

I have high hopes for Saw and High Tension. High Tension looks scarey, the only reason I haven't watched it yet is because it's a gorey one.

I think I'll just re-check out Desperation. I got through the first few chapters earlier in the summer. Man, I only have 1.5 more weeks of pleasure reading!

Personally, I enjoyed the books more than the movies, 'Salems Lot, the book, scared me when I read it. The movie didn't. I haven't read any of his stuff in years, though.

Thank you for also being scared for that book. Salems Lot and Christine both scared me!
