    I saw some preview trailer and I'm not even going to bother. I could tell it was bad just from that. The original may be dated but it still reigns supreme.

    There's gotta be like 200 Stephen King shows or movies and they almost ALL suck, seriously.

    1922 is a good recent one

    But you're not wrong.

    Misery
    Shawshank
    Dead Zone
    Stand By Me
    Shining
    Cujo
    Pet Sematary
    Carrie
    IT
    Green Mile
    Apt Pupil
    The Mist
    Silver Bullet was fun when I was a kid, so was the original Stand

    Everything else is basically crap.

    Needful Things and the Dark Half had promise and I wouldn't mind remakes of both

    In case anybody wonders, that's Homelander's son's twin brother. It isn't Homelander's son tha gets turned into a vampire.

    That's actually more than I thought. But still gotta be less than 10%.

    Mist is a stretch for me though.

    Like you said, when you make 200 movies, some of them *have* to be good. Law of averages and all.

    eta: Gerald's Game is another recent one that's quite good

    Saw this today on a flight. Wow, what a stinker. It felt like a made for TV movie. Some of the plot lines with the townies never played out. Cliched dumb vampire movie mistakes. The main vamp went out like a chump.

    It’s bad. I can’t believe a movie this bad was made in this day and age. I could make a better movie.
