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.

Well, to be fair, he wrote that one when he was totally trashed on painkillers and whatever, after being run over and left in a ditch to die. I had a hard time getting through that one too.

However, The Stand still stands as one of my favorite books of all time, despite his lefty politics.

I like a lot of King’s work, but Dreamcatcher was absolutely horrible.
