All depends on the books.
Insomnia is excellent.
His new trilogy Mr Mercedes were pretty good, though the ending was a little familiar in tone.
Enjoyed Revival, though it did indeed tail off a bit.

His films and to a lesser extent his books always seem to start well and end really shit. That said I do like the film of the langoliers

I never knew that. Loved the book, thought the film hadn't been made. A lot of his books would make phenomenal films now that special effects have caught up. Plenty of others were beat films without the need for it.

There was a film that was split up into two parts, each about three hours long I think.

Original of 'Salems lot is great but still deviates significantly from the book.
However, the remake was goddamned awful!

Agree with Jac. Noth IT and the Stand were very good books but major let downs as gilms.

Good book, but Salem's lot is better and the mini series was one of the scariest things I'd ever seen as a kid .
Look at me teacher ! *shivers*

Original miniseries was due to be ten hours and included much more from the book but studio cut the budgets and people walked.
In the end it's still memorable but yes, the book is better.
New make up for Pennywise looks impressive.
Apparently Will Polter was fantastic but all the delays have now caused recasting.
Keep an eye on movie web and Empire for more updates as it could be good. Apparently two movies, one as kids then the return as adults.
