    It’s a good enough adaptation and the climax is very, very uuupsetting. It’s outrageous.

        I completely agree. I still vividly remember seeing it in the theater and everyone immediately going like oh, oh WHAT and it’s all anyone was talking about when we exited the theatre.

        Worth watching for such a unique filmmaking decision.

        And I like the movie. The recent show was not great, but I like the story premise a lot.

    240p is pretty low res but maybe just watch it if you’re a really big fan of King’s work.
