Best Stephen King Movie?

The Langoliers (1995)

Definitely Misery. =)

The Shawshank Redemption, with Green Mile as a close second. I prefer King's drama over his horror.

Great movie.. But I like them all in their own way!

Or the Shawshank Redemption.

Went with "Stand By Me," but it's a close contest. A lot of the titles I listed are good movies. This one had a great nostalgic feel to it that worked perfectly, and it was very funny and touching at the same time. Certainly one of Rob Reiner's best directing efforts. And who can forget River Phoenix and the cast, who seemed to work so well together? On another day I may have chosen "The Shawshank Redemption," "The Green Mile" or "Misery." Interesting side note: A few directors have taken on more than one Stephen King project. Rob Reiner made both "Stand By Me" and "Misery"; Frank Darabont did "Shawshank" and "Green Mile." Mick Garris may have done the most: "Sleepwalkers," "The Stand," "The Shining" (TV version), "Riding the Bullet," "Desperation," and "Bag of Bones."

this one was crazy scary!!!!!
it taught me that puberty is dangerous!!!!!

Cat's Eye comes to mind. Has a young Drew Barrymore in it. Was a great movie and I don't remember the rating but I think it's safe for most kids to watch too. Has plenty of funny moments in it, like this one scene where this guy kicks this bird that's been pecking away at his feet.

I would say no kid under 12, since it is rated PG-13. Of course, today some kids have seen much more violent stuff, but it's not a kids movie by any stretch.

I didn't say it was a kids movie, just that I believe it's safe for most kids to watch.

Children of the Corn, Sleepwalkers

it was a close tie between green mile and shawshank

The Green Mile was depressing, but amazing.

i really like most of these but i love love rose red, and the um hospital one.

The "hospital one"?

yea, i want to say general hospital, but im not sure lol its a mini series one, that came out before rose red. lol

Great movie

I love most everything by stephen king.

The only one I've watched other then Carrie and It and I didn't like either of them. Lol

Schlocky but fun. Better than some of his stuff brought to screen.

I like Salem's Lot...then Christine...then Carrie...then Pet Semetary...and let's not forget Thinner... :)

thinner was freaky!

Definitively...but in demented good way... :)

Spooky miniseries later redited and released to theaters. Be sure to see the longer cut, not the truncated version!

Thanks for in info...I will... :)

The Shining

I liked the TV miniseries better the way they did it, but of course Steven Weber is no Jack Nicholson!

Too true! Did you see Rose Red? It was really good!

'Heres Johnny'
Amazing.. Redrum...

But I loved the green mile too!

Misery was good; for me it just didn't stick out to me as the best.

I felt it really stayed true to the book and Kathy Bates was perfect in her role!

Bates was also good in King's "Dolores Caliborne" (1995).

YEH She was, I really like her,

For me it was a tie between "The Green Mile and "The Shawshank Redemption."

The two Frank Darabont-Stephen King epics!

IT. Love that movie.

Very solid for a TV movie made in 1990.
