Well, because you asked nicely…

I'll be sure to check out Tobe Hooper's adaptation at some point. And funny you mention the two short stories related to Salem's Lot: the version I have of the novel include those stories. Haven't read them, given by the time I finished the book itself I was pretty underwhelmed but perhaps I'll read them later on.

Thanks cool cat! I hope it works out too.

Yeah, I think we have fundamentally different tastes when it comes to King.

Clearly.

Thankfully, no. He is out of the country at the moment, thank fuck.

Glad it worked for you!

Have you read Dolores Claiborne? If not, definitely read it soon.

Appalling misery is an easy sell for me, so onto the reading list it goes. Thanks cool cat!

No love for her early collaborations with Zero 7?

The snake has eaten its tail?

The whole ensemble is really great. Grace Zabriskie has a particularly nice small role as the grandmother.

I thought it was a bloated, turgid book, complete with flat characters and even flatter dialogue. It's a horror soap without a heart, IMO. Which would be fine if King had embraced the schlocky nature of it all, but he was still treating the material with a solemness that killed the fun. I get that King loves Peyton…

Thank you! I have some breathing room in that work placements here are typically 2-3 weeks, but in terms of long-term work… whoo boy. So many immigration documents to read!
