Please.
I usually hate movies based on Stephen King books/stories. Since "Carrie", it seems like they just slap his name on whatever bastardization of his books hollywood puts out, which I suppose puts asses in seats to some extent. I guess that I'm not objective, however. I used to read the novels, and then go and rent the movies and critique them the whole way through. My specific complain was usually casting (hence my response). I hated Walken as John Smith in "The Dead Zone", even though I am a Walken fan, but Tom Skerrit was an excellent choice in the Sheriff. There are other examples of casting choices I liked or had a problem with. I liked that guy who played Jud Crandall, and Jimmy Smits as Gard, Spacek was certainly a good Carrie, but the majority of the casting sucked. Every casting choice in "It", and especially "Dreamcatcher" except for the guy who played Pennywise (his name eludes me now), and Morgan Freeman as Kurtz were awful.

IDK I've read some 25-30 of Koontz's books, and was dissatisfied with most of them. I would only recommend "Watchers", "Phantoms" and "Winter Moon". His heroics, TOO happy endings, bad characterizations and preaching are often hard for me to tolerate anymore. He's not all bad, but try some Clive Barker or Bentley Little for some real shit :D .

Monsters. It's a pictorial history of the Universal classic horror movies. Fascinating stuff.
