It never fails. I’m on the edge of my seat for some whacked out plot of a Stephen King movie and then it happens. Just like it did when I was watching a commercial for the new Stephen King movie last night.
They show the monster.
That’s my biggest complaint about Stephen King movies. They show the monster. Stephen King’s movies have either a semi-cute monster or a monster that looks so ridiculous it is impossible for me to maintain any level of fear or suspense throughout the rest of the movie.
Once I see the monster in a Stephen King movie, I’m done. It is difficult for me to maintain interest in the movie once I realize something less fearsome or frightening than Snuffalufagus or Gizmo the Gremlin is what I’m supposed to be fearing.

Were you watching Dreamcatcher? I felt that the Alien’s British accent was more of a deal breaker than its appearance.
I wasn’t watching Dreamcatcher when I thought of this complaint, but I’ve seen it many times. It was a great movie for me until Stephen King had to start wrapping things up and figure out something with the main monster. The little monsters that came out of people’s asses while they were on the toilet was fine. But no DBlock, the British accent didn’t help the stupid look of the main monster either.
