Having seen the film, I'd like to read the short story. King's originals are nearly always superior to the adaptations - particularly when King is not involved directly with the screenplay.

For me, this is one of the few movies they have made that actually outshines the story itself. The actors were all fantastic, the stretched out storyline was great. The only other movie that comes to mind that was equally as good from Night Shift was The Graveyard Shift, which I think was perfect.
