Stephen King's «THE TOMMYKNOCKERS» // Full Movie Version // Horror, Thriller, Sci-Fi

[@ms.g1728]

I understand that a movie can’t really follow a long King book, but I do miss that Gard wasn’t drunk. I loved how he found his strength at his deepest weakness. King often uses broken people that way and it was a huge inspiration to me growing up. No matter how bad life got you could still make a difference.

[@joshythehand2960]

So much of the tommyknockers took place in the mind that it was hard to translate into a movie scene.. my favorite part of the book is the mathitician thats driving near the town on his way to a math professors convention.. and as he passes near the town he convieves deep math thay no other human had ever known. Theories came to him proving then origins of space and time.. and as he drives out of the area he loses the knowledge.. hes so devastated thay he hangs himself at his hotel

[@joshythehand2960]

@IP-pm7px yep.. and as I remember he also figured out the actual square root of pi..instead of it going on in infinite decimals. I got so into that book because right as hs ended my best friend, my dad and I took a month long backpacking trip on the pacific crest trail. I brought the book with me. We were waaaaayyy back there. So at night there were zero distractions after dark. Just pitch black, my head lamp, and the book. It gave me the chance to deeply focus on it and reflect on each page. No tv or anything else to taint the images of what I just read. It was among the most crystal clear readings I've ever done.. if that makes sense

A good but not great adaptation of a good but not great book. Unlike most people, I don't think King adaptations are "hit or miss". 90% of The King adaptations I've seen I like (and trust me, I've seen a lot). If feels like unless it's the Shawshank Redemption, Stand by Me, or Kubrick's The Shining, it's automatically an "insult" to Stephen King's work. As such, I don't share the hatred of the tv mini-series adaptations, (this one specifically) that most have. The Tommyknockers mini-series' biggest strength is what many say is it's biggest flaw, it's low budget. King clearly was inspired by old sci-fi films and books of the 50s and 60s, and this mini-series feels life a homage to those. A huge budget wouldn't have worked for this type of story.

Because this was filmed in winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the location was moved to New Zealand. I enjoyed this film, but the critics panned it, as did also Stephen King, who later said that this was one of his worst novels as well. From the Wikipedia article on this film: ***** The miniseries received negative reviews. Tony Scott in Variety described it as "hokey whoop-de-doo" and criticised the writing and the special effects, though he praised the acting. The Toledo Blade praised the "riveting visualization of the novel", calling it "one of the better adaptations of a King novel". In 2014, it was ranked by The New York Observer as the third worst Stephen King miniseries. On Rotten Tomatoes, The Tommyknockers holds an approval rating of 30% based on 23 reviews, with an average rating of 4.50/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Unlikeable characters, a bloated narrative, and drab scripting make The Tommyknockers a hard watch for even the most die-hard of Stephen King fans." Also, the miniseries has not received any praise from King himself, going so far as to say that "he doesn't care for 1993's The Tommyknockers at all." Ironically, in a 2014 interview with Rolling Stone, King even called his own novel "an awful book".

[@justinhousman7760]

the book is awful

[@TOUGHEYES]

And yet, looking upon the behaviour of the Critic Class and that whole 'officialised sources' walk of life, they're just as captured in terms of what thinking they deem acceptable, as the Tommyknocker Servants of the town are captured in terms of how they behave and how they act. Its kind of a prelude, a reflective piece of work, then given criticism because the critic class and then the author are of the minds to think that the details therein don't apply to their behaviours. Time has proven the film correct in some respects, and their cynicism a deflection.

@@dogboymalone11 we have your mother! we have her in the underground bases in the Ozarks!, the mountains. you can look for her but i doubt you will find her now because we have evolved into reptillians and are highly powerful. if you want to find your mother. check the Ozarks at your own peril.

No one does horror like Steven King 👑

Tommy Knockers was his best imo.

Now I want to read the book again 🙂 A good movie for its day.

[@Aurelia-l6l]

King nunca falla,sin los efectos especiales de ahora, la trama extra o intra terrestre es la misma. La fusión máquina y biología ya es una realidad, se ha tratado mucho en nuevas películas. Sólo falta nuestra energía. Saludos desde Chile🇨🇱 Noviembre 2024.🤗💖

This screenplay absolutely MURDERED the book, and made Gard more noble but the hero aspect is retained, which isn't surprising since Gard is just Stephen King without the success lol... Bobbi Anderson surviving was a strange twist and BRAVO on her releasing Peter,, but there's NOTHING I hate more in a movie than when the Real Sl*t gets killed lol...

[@George-l4h]

This is an awesome movie thanks to Stephen King.👍

What the heck, grandpa saves her but she chose to save the dog and not grandpa!?!? Whats wrong with this picture??

That stupid dog was annoying

Thank you for sharing ! Great movie !

[@pradeepdas1841]

Absolutely sublime.... King is a maestro ....

[@carolannpacificadam1944]

Sure taught me a few. I wish Stephen King was reading all these great posts about him. My favorite has to be Green Mile

[@c.k.2405]

The 90s.... So classic. I love how at that time the style of clothing was conservative and women still had a feminine nature to them. You rarely see that anymore.

@@azillliasmith2734 Im very insane because I actually appreciate the natural look of a woman's body without Botox, fillers, tattoos, and piercings. Let's not forget short manly haircuts either.

If you like Steven King and Dean Koontz you will like Clive Barker several of his short stories should be movies

The best book of Stephen King

[@JAlex-ng1mu]

Better than the Dark Tower series? Idk!!

[@lecobra418]

Oddly enough most people including SK think this book was one of the worst he wrote along with Dreamcatcher. It's one of my favorites, far ahead The Stand which is everyone's favorite.

[@Notupforit]

Thanks for this. Thought I would follow the book up with the mini series. Me and Mr King are getting reacquainted 😊

[@jasonwilliams4315]

Great story! I remember seeing those Jeans and they created an awaking of their own lol
