Best and Worst Stephen King Adaptations

81 words.

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.
