    Latest Movie That You Watched!

    The Final Master [2015] I am a huuuge fan of old kung fu movies, and that's why I started watching this one. It's not a typical KF movie, and it's a lot more realistic, insofar as plot, with less focus on humor than some other titles in the genre. Fun fact, all the blades used in the action...

    The Outsider Thread

    Picked this up last week and devoured it by bedtime. I tend to tear through books like a bull in a china shop, then go back and take my time. (I'm an impatient person!) I tried to shy away from downright spoilers here, so with that, I'll shut my fingertips up! xD

    Why you should see IT in theaters instead of waiting

    We watched in IMAX and... I'm so glad it lived up to my expectations. I'm notoriously finicky with my horror movies and honestly haven't seen anything that truly frightened me that was labeled "horror". I get more chills from psychological terrors, personally, so this film was golden for me. I...

    Recommend a scary movie that others might not have seen

    I was scrolling to see if anyone mentioned the second little gem you mentioned here! My oldest referred "In the Mouth of Madness" to me, selling it by saying it was like some psychological thriller that was a creepy mixture of Lovecraftian and Stephen King storytelling. Having watched it now...

    Replace one word of a movie title with "Bacon"

    The Land Before Bacon ....that would be such a very sad movie. :too_sad:

    My first time on this section of SKMB

    Love, well-wishes, and healing vibes sent your way, 80s fan. I can't imagine what you deal with on a day to day basis, but I want you to know that it doesn't matter one lick what those other people at the hospital or elsewhere think. You are an amazing parent and exemplary human being, and they...

    Alien 2017

    Oddly enough, I bought and watched Prometheus without a clue it was a part of the Alien multiverse. Had a couple of ...this looks familiar moments, but didn't really have an Ah-ha! until close to the end. I guess that's one of the reasons I fairly liked it. That's one reason I enjoyed the...

    Mile 81. Most dumbest story ever. Spoilers in case

    Actually, he probably could. I mean, he made a steamrolling/folding machine pretty darn scary without much effort... :m_cool:

    Any other big fans of The Tommyknockers?

    I do!!! I always loved the dynamics between Gard and Bobby, and I loved the characters he introduced. One of my favourite quotes by King comes from this book, in Ruth McCausland's section. True, it was a bit campy and the idea of made me giggle, but King invests such of himself into everything...

    Your Latest Stephen King Related Purchase:

    My latest King themes shopping spree included snagging hardback copies of Insomnia, Black House, Duma Key, Full Dark No Stars, and Lisey's Story. Also picked up a paperback replacement of Black House! Then, on my birthday, I got a package from skimom containing Carrie, The Talisman, and The...

    Which version of the dead zone would you keep?

    Aesthetically? I'd keep the one one the right because I love the black background with the profile cut-out. I would personally keep the one on the left, however, because it looks less worn. If you're anything like me, I read paperbacks until they fall apart, (I just recently had to replace my...
