Endgame Viable

Best movie adaptations of Stephen King works:

• The Dark Half
• Delores Claiborne
• Firestarter
• Misery
• The Mist
• Pet Sematary
• The Shining (the mini-series, not the Kubrick movie, which bore little resemblance to the novel)

Worst adaptations of Stephen King novels:

• Desperation
• It
• The Langoliers
• Salem’s Lot (all versions)
• Tommyknockers

Note that I have not had an occasion to read Stand By Me or Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, which are popularly considered among the best adaptations, so I don’t include them.
