Not seen the movie yet but I have read the short story by Stephen King. The person who left the last comment must not realise that the movie is 'based' on a Stephen King short story. He did not create the movie or direct it! I watched the trailer for the film and it is VERY different to the short story. To me it looks like every other crappy horror film that hollywood has made recently but I'll wait and see. If you hate the film, read the short story because it is King at his best. Its very psychological, (I thought I was on drugs when I read it) and pretty damn scary.

You're not doing your job. Some guy (or girl) wrote the word f- - - - - g and you didn't delete it. Shame, shame.
This movie started off with a good premise and then, in my opinion, it bombed . Stephen King is a weirdo and goes to extremes. Too many surprises with loud sounds. I got bored half way through the movie. It could have been done much better and more scarier but he has this penchant for the absurd. His best movies were 'Pet Cemetary' and 'The Shining.' Everything else was stinko including the most stupid movie I had ever chose to waste my time watching which was 'The Langoliers.' What a piece of junk!!
