Poll: Favorite Stephen King Movie.
 
:)

Steve_Hutchison 04-09-2004 07:30 PM

I assumed you were'nt refering to THE Stephen King's The Shining

SFF 04-09-2004 07:31 PM

I like The Shining, and I like Pet Sematary, but I voted for "other." My other being Christine. That movie is just funny as hell and I love it. Here is a line that belongs in the "You're favorite horror movie quotes" thread LOL:

"Braaaand new she was. She had the smell of a brand new car. And that's just about the finest smell in the world, except maybe for pussy."

LMAO!!! That movie is a trip. I like the part where Buddy gives Arnie's sack lunch the knife, and just that whole scene in general.

Steve_Hutchison 04-09-2004 07:34 PM

I liked Christine and Misery too (My fav being The Shining and Pet Sematary)

AmarylandPsycho 04-09-2004 07:37 PM

I liked IT.....Tim curry is the bomb. I would like to see a re-make of it still though....the shinning is good as well....both versions.......but I still went for it

XFeaRX 04-09-2004 07:44 PM

I loved the Shining, It, and Pet Semetary but I chose The Shining over the others.

Gein84 04-10-2004 09:05 AM

i like the shining and the stand. dreamcatcher was alright.

BudMan 04-10-2004 09:12 AM

I'm gonna have to say The Shining. Salems Lot was pretty good although a little dated [ a remake is in the works ].

AmarylandPsycho 04-10-2004 09:45 AM

You know what else kicks ass but not horror the shawshank redemption and apt pupil. both great shits from king

and "stand by me" ( though that's not originally the title )

McDonnyDude666 04-10-2004 12:31 PM

I made the same poll on another horror site a few days what a concidence.

Anyway i would say my favourite is The Shining, Stanley Kubricks version all though the other version was more like the book.

King HATED Kubrick's version. That's WHY he remade it:rolleyes:

MichaelMyers 04-10-2004 01:42 PM

I really liked 'The Stand'. One of Gary Sinise's better performances.

alixzander 04-10-2004 02:01 PM

none
 
Pet Semetary. great movie, plus a kick ass sequel

I think the Stanley Kubrik version was cool. But the original was good also. Can't really decide between the two.

orangestar 04-10-2004 02:52 PM

Pet Sematary by far (btw, I just found out today that its original theatrical release was one day after I was born. lol pointless but true)

but I liked the Shining and Carrie

Couldn't have said it better myself

Arioch 04-10-2004 06:39 PM

Pet Sematary, Misery, The Stand, some of the only decent book-to-movie translations, i would love IT if it wasnt so far from the book.

Yes, it was the bomb. But, I liked The Shining better.

Blob 04-10-2004 07:12 PM

I love Rose Red, I only watched a few weeks ago. It was one of those movies you did not want to end. I also love IT...Dream Catcher just did not do it for me.

Three way Tie, The Shining, The Stand and IT!! :D

meetthecreeper 04-11-2004 07:02 AM

My vote goes for other, The Dark Half, love George Stark, he kind of reminds me of myself and the some of the things that I would love to do to some people.

I think there is a little George Stark in everyone it just a matter of how much you let it show, or act upon those impulses.

freddy69 04-12-2004 10:40 AM

XFeaRX 04-12-2004 06:09 PM

Tie with Pet Semetary and other, break the tie!!! :)

Targangil 04-12-2004 06:57 PM

My favourite movie adaptation of a King story is Misery, followed by The Shawshank Redemption and Carrie, Apt Pupil also kicks arse.

zes 04-13-2004 08:26 AM

I voted other, My favourite is The Running Man, I also liked The Mangler, Needful Things, The Greenmile and Trucks.

Those topiaries and this cliched ending will never replace the labyrinth and Nicholson's death from the original. The best thing about the The Shining remake is Rebecca De Mornay's performance.

I ment for me it's a three way tie. those where my fav's.

KRUGERKID13 04-13-2004 09:59 AM

I voted for Pet Semetery but my favorite id The Dark Half. An excellent movie imo Romeros best other than the dead trilogy.
