This is one of those stories that works far better set in the time it was written. The book came out before smart phones, and thus before texting was anywhere near as popular as it was by 2016. In an actual 2016 airport, most of those people would be texting, or just scrolling through the internet.

I just ignore calls. I'd be fine. Edit: well damn. They left out everything that made the book great. Alice was such a badass, and her death was gutwrenching.

the book was so good i read it 10x as a child. Shame this movie has literally nothing in common with the book other than cellphones. It butchers everything even the main characters. I'd love how Tom is meant to be an obese, awkward, friendly, OCD-tend gay man yet played by sam.... The schoolteacher died of suicide! Alice's death was gutwrenching and out of nowhere and done simply by two shithead kids in a car throwing bricks. They were calling her names and one brick took half her skull off. She was 14! Clay gets home to find his son zombified but not attacking him and everyone else fucking dies! This book was no bullshit

[@Wednesdaywoe1975]

The teacher's death wasn't suicide. The hive mind forced him to shove a pencil in his eye. Retaliation for killing the zombies.

[@robdead4550]

The Hay-Day of Stephan King was from "The Bachman Books" (a collection of short stories that included the "Running Man") to "The Dark Tower" series. Even when he was a coke addict (self admitted) writing "The Tommy Knockers" he still had insperation. The writers cut of "The Stand" and the full version of "It", and the "Dark Tower" trilogy are stories I still find myself thinking about after almost 20 years......

I’m surprise no movie has made a movie about the Yandere Virus where it only effects Beautiful Women who are teens and adults who are in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. This virus symptoms include only behavior problems like controlling, insane, overprotective, sadistic, and more stuff. The virus will kill Women who are immuned to the virus who is dating or marrying their lover they want. The virus makes the women love their favorite guy. If a guy resists the infected woman will beat them up and they have powers to heal them and lucky enough they don’t have plans killing their lover. After the torture the Yandere women will make the guy pleasured so so the infected women can have baby girls who are Yandere like them. After they get pregnant the male victim will be brainwashed by the infected woman by making him love her and only remember her all his memories will be erased. If the Yandere infected mother has a boy they will be normal until they have a sister who wants to do the same thing their Mom did to their dad to their brother. Unfortunately on my movie idea the villian who is also a Yandere responsible for the virus wins and no cure for the virus cannot be found by the scientists. Yandere women dominant the world making the male population slaves for them and it also means Yandere women are immortal making them stop aging at 30.
