The only thing I really remember from Silver Bullet was that one of the "victims" was a fat trailer slob who was watching pro wrestling on his TV and seemed to be in the "real to me" crowd. I didn't mourn his death via werewolf claws-n-fangs.

The thing I remember most from Christine was how the leader of the bullies had the awesome escape tactic of running in a straight line down a highway. Shockingly, the car caught him.

For me its the shining, It, and the Stand. They were pretty faithful to the book with that miniseries and the casting was very good for the characters.

I too have never seen shawshank and I'm not real inclined to do so.

It almost gets better with time, as you sort of follow along what he is doing for 20 years with the ending. Each time you pick up on something else, as small as it may be. Plus, when you know the plot, you can focus on how amazing the writing and dialogue is, as well as everything else that it takes to make a movie.

Which is why it's cool that one of the banks he goes to at the end there was my bank for a year in Ashland. It's the Huntington now.
