Admittedly, I think his good movies are really good. Stand by Me, The Mist, 1408, The Shining, Misery…But its quite possible that the bad ones are so bad they overwhelm the good of the good ones. Look at Dreamcatcher. Have you seen the Langoliers? Ugh!
All that being said, I’m with Jenn. I used to read his books a lot, but I can’t really do it nowadays. It and The Stand are great books, but I think they’ll just live on in memory, rather than be read again.
Although, I would love for Marvel to adapt It into a comic like they did some of his other stuff. I really hope that happens!
