All I know is that these things we are witnessing are NOT proportionate to less than 200 deaths nationwide. There is something MUCH bigger at the core of this.

Read the book many many years ago. Epic.

Never saw any movie or TV adaptation.

I've yet to see a single SK book make a good transition to video. We watched "Doctor Sleep" a few weeks ago. Book was awesome. Movie was 'meh'.
