Joe: “No Bill, it just doesn’t make sense. 90% of his books are made up of filler and almost always crap out at the end.”

There was a King miniseries years ago. A killer goes around killing locals in a small town. He keeps saying "give me what I want and I'll go away." But he doesn't tell them what he wants, and no one asks -- until the final episode.

It was a total waste.

It was called The Storm of the Century. Don't quit your day job to become a movie critic.

LMAO! Is that the one where he takes the kid or something? I think I seen that. I really don’t get why this guy gets so much praise or attention, there are a ton of writers out there who just blow that guy right out of the water in terms of writing. It’s like a freakin’ cult or something. I remember reading Dreamcatcher and I got halfway through it before I couldn’t take it anymore, it was freakin’ torture reading that thing. Instant ZZZZZZ. And of course....They had to make it into a movie.

The only SK book I read was The Dead Zone. I couldn’t put it down until I was done with it....The TV series not too good, didn’t watch it... When I saw him for the first time on TV I thought...no wonder he writes the books he does, he is one strange looking dude...
