1.Stephen King's The Stand starring: Rick Aviles, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, Bill Fagerbakke, Miguel Ferrer July 14, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.95
alright the acting is subpar, (it was a made for tv mini series), The Stand still remains one of my most favorite Stephen King movie adaptions ever. It kept to the basic outline of the book, but it's impossible to take everything from King's epic novel.

3.Langoliers starring: Mark Lindsay Chapman, Christopher Collet, Christopher Cooke (II), Kymberly Dakin, Frankie Faison February 06, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.94
4.5/5 The best parts of 'The Langoliers' are the acting and the directing. This never feels like a TV show. It feels like a solid theatrical release that is at times, inspired. This isn't perfect of course, but the only flaws that stick out like a sore thumb are a few odd lines of flat dialogue. This all adds up to about 3 or 4 minutes of drag out of a three hour release. This is important, as 'The Langoliers' is all dialogue, like a stage play. In fact, this could be made into a stage play with little effort. So the fact that the dialogue is almost entirely solid is very important. It is not the best you will ever hear in film, but it is good enough, that top level acting talent will make it great. That is, fortunately, exactly what 'The Langoliers' has in David Morse, Dean Stockwell, and particularily ... Read More

4.The Raven starring: Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff, Hazel Court, Olive Sturgess directed by: Roger Corman September 16, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.00
A raven appears at the home of magician Erasmus Craven (Vincent Price) claiming to be a man transformed by the evil Dr. Scarabus (Boris Karloff). Craven turns him back into human form and is then told that his late wife is alive and well and living at Scarabus castle. This movie is supposed to be campy-funny, but I found it dated and dull. The costumes are out of King Arthur while the dialogue is modern; the plot made no sense and wasn't even remotely funny. It was set, apparently, in the middle ages, yet Price recites the 19th century poem, "The Raven." Price played it straight while Karloff was obviously kidding. The whole first hour was a set-up for the "magical duel" between Price and Karloff which turned out to be just lame effects and sleepwalking actors. The only thing that kept me watching ...

5.The Dead Zone starring: Christopher Walken, Brooke Adams, Tom Skerritt, Herbert Lom, Anthony Zerbe directed by: David Cronenberg August 26, 1991
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.10
Christopher Walken has made a career out of taking those oddball, quirky, edgy roles. Never satisfied with the easy path, he, like Harvey Keitel, takes the tricky, adventurous over the safe and sometimes more profitable parts. He often plays the role of a strange, eerie, kind of nutcase character. Always he seems to be stretching his acting muscles and evolving as an actor. The book is part of the prolific Stephen King's franchise. In "The Dead Zone," The lead character, Walken as Johnny, spends five years in a coma, and comes out of it with psychic powers. Because he can see into the past and future, and see events taking place elsewhere in the present, he is able to save lives, snare a serial killer, smoke our evildoers, and prevent catastrophes. He learns that he can not only foretell the future but change it. ... Read More

6.In the Mouth of Madness starring: Sam Neill, Julie Carmen, Jürgen Prochnow, David Warner, John Glover directed by: John Carpenter August 18, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.41
This is a real good movie 3star but the 1star above is for this terrible dealer. I ordered this movie many months ago and still havent recieved it.

7.Salem's Lot starring: David Soul, James Mason, Lance Kerwin, Bonnie Bedelia, Lew Ayres directed by: Tobe Hooper December 13, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
I bought this movie hoping that It would be good like the mini series. It was not so but it did follow stephen kings storyline. The ending is unrealistic and this movie is just plain boring. I had to stop and take a brake from it because i was so bored. I WON'T ever watch this version again.

8.Night Walker starring: Robert Taylor, Barbara Stanwyck, Judi Meredith, Hayden Rorke, Rochelle Hudson directed by: William Castle October 01, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.48
I saw this several times as a kid and even though it scared me alot, I always regarded it as a treat when it was on. I always found it on late at night and no matter how many times I saw it, I would brace myself for and then jump out my seat at a certain point in the movie-everyone who has seen it knows which part I'm talking about. As many have made reference to, the music kind of sticks with you and probably adds a lot to the scary atmosphere. I haven't seen it as an adult and I wonder if it is as scary as I remember.

9.Silver Bullet starring: Gary Busey, Everett McGill, Corey Haim, Megan Follows, Robin Groves directed by: Daniel Attias January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.00
Stephen King is the king of horror, that's it, none other can compare! If you haven't ever seen Silver Bullet, shame on you! Order it today!

10.Serpent & Rainbow starring: Bill Pullman, Cathy Tyson, Zakes Mokae, Paul Winfield, Brent Jennings directed by: Wes Craven March 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.50
Although slightly distorted by Hollywood, this video tells the amazing and true story about an Anthropologist named Wade Davis who was solicited by pharmaceutical companies in the United States to find the Haitian Zombie powder for use in American operating rooms as anesthesia.
