I totally agree - I really liked Horns, but I'm not sure how it will successfully translate into film, especially since a good portion of the book is inner dialogue. Plus the story is so rich and character-driven as it goes back and forth in time - Realistically to fit that into 90 minutes, they will probably need to cut a lot of that out, and I really enjoyed the flashbacks as an interesting counterbalance to the main story line. Speaking of flashbacks, I think that they're hard to do successfully in film and considering that 1/2 of the movie is made of flashbacks, that's another difficulty to overcome.

I think that Heart-Shaped Box would make a great film - Straight-forward and a quality creepy ghost story.
