I'm a big fan of stephen kings movies, but not really his books. I find he drags things out too much, and I find it easy to get bored when the story just seems to be filling in the gaps between the good bits.

For Horror / Thriller the best writers have to be Brian Lumley and Clive Barker, IMHO. :twisted:

I think it depends on what book you're reading by him. I find Dreamcatcher, The Shining, and Carrie to be his best. Insomnia dragged too much; it was a pain to read it. [/b][/quote]
what about the bachman books? they were mostly snappy short and to the point especially the amazing running mAn. cmon the movie was a huge steaming pile of poo compared to the book, ie: they were nothing like each other, i think they musta driven a huge lorry full of money to his house for him to allow them to turn his book into that abortion of a movie. and people who love the running man movie before you flame me read the book, it is probably my fave book of all time and evry time i see governer arnold gurning his way thru it it makes me wanna throw things at the tv, :ranting: generally i jus change the channel tho.
seriosly if u havnt read running man, get the bachman books and check it out.
unlike a lot of his writing it actually has a message.
o and robert rankin ruuules check out armegeddon the musicall, if there was no robert rankin there would be no pratchett! k:
