I REALLY liked it...It can't live up to the book, of course...But, the book starts out kinda slow, building the atmosphere, characters and storyline (typical of King), the movie just jumps right in there...I definitely recommend it (for what that's worth :p)...There were several times when it reminded me of Koontz's Phantoms, especially in a couple of police station scenes...It also made me think of King's Storm Of The Century in a few spots
