I saw this on sci fi last weekend.I wasnt too impressed with it. The story was kind of dumb too.I have to admit some parts where cool though, like the parts where he halusinates.

You weren't missing much John.

I was excited to see this because I read the short story of the same name by King.

It was the same as with most of King's translations to the screen, it is almost impossible to successfully bring the depth that King gives to his characters and situations to film.

There were some scenes that were meant to be scary or tense but came across as downright laughable.

Check it out if you have absolutely nothing else to watch.

Well, except for Kingdom Hospital, I've seen pretty much ever screen adaption of King's work, so I'll have to see it eventually.
