Many of King's books have made it on to the Silver screen. His style(glorified comic book, horror) is very easy for directors to convert to both the large screen and small without skimping on the plot.

His first(IIRC) was "The Shining"

I usually watch the movie version of his books first then if I like it, I'll buy the book.

I enjoyed both the movie version of Christine and the written word.

Have you seen "The Night Flyer"? Not a book but a movie written by King. Good horror flix, IMHO. Also "Storm of the Century"
