King has said he liked the film’s ending better than his own

The original 1970s Carrie adaptation with Sissy Spacek. Captures an era perfectly, and all the female leading actresses are so good.
The 1970s mini series of Salems Lot. Great cast. Super creepy thanks to Tobe Hooper’s direction.

Ohhh I actually haven’t seen Salem’s Lot! I’ll have to add that to my list. I also thought it was just a flick - didn’t realize there was a series.

Interesting! Haven’t heard about this but I’m gonna have to put it on my radar.

Has no one mentioned The Shining yet? I know that Stephen King dislikes the film and probably everyone has seen it already. But I have to mention it because it is still one of my favorite horror films of all time. Bonus points for the 4K Bluray because it looks absolutely amazing.

The Stand miniseries 1994 and dreamcatcher 2003 they are not the best but they are my favorites

The Mist (2007)
I never read the story it's based on, but holy shit I love that movie. It has such a great mix of monster movie vibes, and the bleak-as-fuck ending honestly really sends it home.
ETA: there's apparently a black and white version that I've never seen but really want to.
