Stephen King Film Tournament
 

I've compiled a list of 32 Stephen King films. These can be movies based of his books, something he wrote the screenplay for or even something that directed or acted in. Please note that I tried to limit to the horror/sci fi films as much as I could. (I'm sure we all know that Green Mile, Shawshank Redemtion and Stand By Me are all good movies. They just don't really fit the mold of what I'm doing here, so I left them out. I also left out remakes like the 2002 Carrie, and most sequels like Children of the Corn 2-6, Carrie 2:The Rage, Sometimes They Come Back 2-3. If you really like some of these sequels just vote for the original when it comes up because I wanted a round number for the tourney and they just couldn't be worked in. FYI: Pet Semetary 2 and Creepshow 2 managed to make to make the cut.) I randomly split them into brackets and now I need you to help me figure out which one is the Ultimate Film from the master of suspense....

Here is a list of the 32 films I included... It, The Night Flyer, Apt Pupil, Dolores Claiborne, Dreamcatcher, Trucks, Creepshow, Rose Red, Chrsitine, Carrie, Sleepwalkers, Maximum OverDrive, Stakes, Thinner, Pet Semetary, Children of the Corn, Needful Things, The Shining, Silver Bullet, The Dead Zone, Creepshow 2, Secret Window, The Dark Half, Graveyard Shift, Firestarter, Misery, Pet Semetary 2, The Stand, The Langoliers, Cujo, The Mangler, and Salem's Lot.

Okay here it is....
