I'm trying to watch some legendary 80s movies that I have forgotten about (or never seen before). Recently, I've picked up "Stand By Me": a group of friends set out to find a dead body. I don't know which bits were just 1950s nostalgia (as seen from the 80s). But it sure has a unique flair. And a lot of strange bits: kids walking a whole summer day with raw meat in their backpack to enjoy meatballs at an evening camp fire! A side story about barfing up blueberry pie.

Maximum Overdrive Is What Zero Supervision Looks Like

Day off because the weather decided to be dramatic. Roads iced over, responsibilities canceled, expectations lowered. Perfect conditions to watch Maximum Overdrive, which is basically what happens when Stephen King gets final cut and nobody confiscates the cocaine. Machines turn evil. Not cool machines. Vending machines. Lawn mowers. Trucks with stupid demon faces. The movie opens by murdering a kid with a steamroller, which is the film’s way of saying “we’re not easing into this.” […]

Wszystkim obserwującym sytuację w Minneapolis gorąco polecam powieść Stevena Kinga pt. "Pod kopułą".

Idea for ‘Steven King’s Books, Movies & TV Fans, to Get What I Think All of Us Want More ‘Steven King’s Stories on TV.

I been re-watching ‘Stranger Things’, to prepare to for the show shutting down. Like the show, but it seems almost like a ‘Steven King’ knock off, more so with every sense begun. I also love the original ‘Twilight Zone’ best SciFi stories ever made, better than any TV & Movies ever made. I cannot tell you how many timesI have watched them, but give me $100 each episode I have watched & I would become the richest person in the world. I really liked the original ‘Amazing Stories’ as well. I liked all the remakes of both series that followed.

So, here is my idea-

Create a TV series that takes ‘Steven King’s stories, mostly the books, & makes at least one-entire season out of each of his stories. Maybe, need to increase seasons’ at least 1+-Hr. episodes to at least 20. Maybe, even do more than 1-‘Steven King’ stories at a time, already doing that for other famous authors.

What "IT: Welcome to Derry (2025)" does really well, is to take tropes of locations and places, that are considered safe, and make them into places of horror.

It does the same with people. Usually, in horror films, kids are the ones who are spared. In this series, not so much.

So, what makes it unnerving, is that nothing feels safe. Everything, everywhere, all the time feels threatening. Which imo really reflects the tone of the source book, "IT (1986)".

Watching the first episode of "IT: Welcome to Derry (2025)"

Me, 10 minutes in: "Okay, I see where this is going."

Narrator voice: He, in fact, did not know where it was going.
