Poll Macabre: Stephen King On Film and TV

Doctor Sleep did nothing for me beyond reminding me how few movies ever need sequels. The plot could easily exist, as a kind of horror X men, without The Shining to draw upon, but then who would care? There's a scene midway through with Jacob Tremblay that is one of the most unpleasant things I've ever seen in a movie, and which it has in no way earned the gravitas to include.

A Creepshow Halloween special is being released next month, featuring an animated adaptation of 'Survivor Type'!!!!!!
