The making of Stephen King's Rose Red (2002)

[@lisalambrecht6676]

I remember that the movie was so long that it came in 2 VHS tapes. As a kid, my brother and I always argued over who had to brave changing the tapes to keep watching 😂

[@Nonames122]

Oh god I hate that the menu was creepy everytime

[@tayhlorpogacsas7200]

@@Nonames122 there is no menu on the VHS you're thinking of the DVD. at the end of the cassette it goes black then you have to put the second one in

[@benamisai-kham5892]

​@@Nonames122yes! I owned the VHS double later in life and my mom had the DVDs and we watched those a lot growing up, I absolutely blocked that menu from my mind 😭

[@Carriedmusic]

Stephen King is very talented, no doubt about it! I watched Rose Red for the first time when I was 11 or 12 and it absolutely scared the shit out of me and still does as an adult. Still one of my favorites along with Storm of the century. The film crew did a great job at making this movie as well. Sometimes the movies disappoints from the book but i think they did a great job with this one

[@hw5091]

I think Storm of the Century was a fair bit better, but this one was surprisingly good. Scarier than Storm.

[@Crroow]

Who else liked Sukeena. Wonderful performance and likeable character.

[@Carriedmusic]

Definitely! She creeped me out the most in this movie. Great actress

[@DarkEmerald1990]

The actress was absolutely amazing in this movie.

[@kerrykoleszar294]

Absolutely agreed, was thinking how she was one of my top favorites of this production

[@Final-Ts]

Rose Red is Hands Down The Best Haunted House movie ever made next to The Shining. I wish there were more but there aren't. Yes, other haunted house movies exist, but they don't even compare on the level this movie did.

[@sburris65]

I know this was criticized...but this is one of my favorite movies. Great cast and great storytelling. many reruns later..it never gets old. I also love Sukeena the maid is the original Rafiki in the Broadway version of the Lion King.

[@toniroberts8117]

I remember when I first watched Rose Red, the entire plot with professor Miller ended very oddly. In the beginning of the film he had a pretty prominent role and it faded out prematurely. Learning now that he actually passed away before he could finish this film makes it make sense. It makes me wonder how the movie would have ended if he didn’t pass away.

[@DmitriyK12]

Rest in peace David Dukes...at least I think that was his name. I still get shivers down my back when I watch him get eaten by Mr. Bolinger; it looked liked the dead become zombies or cannibals.

[@dawnfrye4343]

Rose Red was phenomenal, I loved everything about it. The perfect amount of horror & mystery.

[@alexandriathomas3753]

I literally just got done watching this movie. It still creeps me out and I love the fact that the movie is so long. I don’t want it to end but also the details they fit in are amazing. Haunted houses are my favorite kind of scary movie ♥️ Thank you for this one Stephen K.

[@benamisai-kham5892]

I make it longer by watching the diary of Emily rimbaur before I watch it 😂

[@janisyoung9682]

I've been watching The Haunting, both the 1963 movie, and the remake done in the 80s, I believe. There were very similar themes in both that reminded me of Rose Red. There is even a mention of the Winchester mansion. I loved both of those movies, especially the 1963 one, and I loved Rose Red. A very good movie.

[@0413dec]

The remake you mention was done in 1999. I tend to like the 1963 version as well, because it is much closer to Shirley Jackson’s 1959 novel.

[@0413dec]

Love this movie. Fascinating to see all the behind the scenes info.

[@annemchurchwell]

I own this on DVD and still watch it a couple of times a year. I love this one but Firestarter with Drew Berrymore is still my favorite Steven King movie.

[@janecameron9337]

From the Sleepwalkers to the Shining you can not go wrong and then you see him in a little bit of his movies make them even better

[@Jammergirl68]

I watched the first part had to record the other parts and watch it in day time lol when it came on tv. Later I bought the DVD and Diary of Ellen too. Excellent movies, Stephen King is a very gifted writer, gotta love him

[@alistairmcelwee7467]

I love the mini-series. Perfectly cast, filmed, etc. Sets amazing. Once you get past the beginning where the actors are selling the series, you get to interesting and less "ra-ra" info. I saw this back in the early 2000s when it was first broadcast. I bought it on DVD - but haven't seen it on streaming, and my DVD has been in storage for 10 years :-(. So disappointed that this is not on streaming media. I've checked Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, Apple, AMC, & HBO Max. I finally found it here on KZbin just recently. I'm sure it will be taken down again soon...

[@tracycraft2971]

Wow! This was so amazing! I loved Rose Red so much that I bought it on DVD! It’s amazing!! As Stephen king said, it’s the perfect haunted house story!! Bravo king!!❤❤❤

[@HauntedByHeroesX]

Hill house, bly manor, and rose red. Cinematic master pieces, the magnum opus of haunted houses and ghost stories. Splendid trifecta, fantastic writing, wonderful music, excellent cast... they all have emotion, depth, and soul. You care about the people, the dialog, the characters. You immersed in the story... such rare gems in a world over saturated by entertainment, such a true delight and a rare diamond to be found in the deep dark depths of a hollowed out coal mine of cinema these days.

[@felipepontael]

If I get multimillionaire one day, I´ll call all these set designers and the remaining crew from these films (who are still alive) and build up a huge sort of Disneyland of movie sets, so Rose Red and the Goonies ship floating on the water and everything will be rebuilt to the tiniest details and small groups of people will be able to come in and experience memorable scenes and explore the sets as if they were in the movies. Don´t know why nobody in Hollywood had this idea already, would be paradise for enthusiasts!

[@tayhlorpogacsas7200]

I've had this idea million times could you imagine building Rose Red to the actual scale portrayed in the movie with all the rooms that you see down to every detail wallpaper fireplaces bed posts clothes in the closet the mirror Library I wouldn't want to see it while it was being built I would wait until it was done then wander it alone terrified and happy all at the same time mostly terrified

I love the movie, If only the two issues I have are the editing/color correction and the CGI was a victim of its time and budget. I used to work at the Winchester Mystery House. I never found it frightening or strange, but the grounds were more haunting. I used to love cleaning in the cold winter when tours were low and relaxing with coworkers in the stock rooms. Fun times.

So, does this mean Rose Red was based on a true story? I know the Thornwood Castle is supposed to be the location where Stephen King filmed his TV movie. It was also the location where the remake of The Haunting was filmed. Was the real Rose Red demolished like the heir said he was going to do? Lots of questions, no real answers..

[@TroubleToby3040]

I'm pretty sure that was a fake documentary. I haven't checked but I think so.

[@vtr279]

Rose Red is loosely based off of the legacy/life of Sarah Winchester, and her 11-storey (prior to the 1906 earthquake) Victorian California mansion she built with the inheritance of her deceased husband, $1000.⁰⁰ usd (about $25‐30k adjusted for today/inflation), he invented the Winchester Rifle...

Why is Ellen a vampire in the film besides being scary I never really understood that Or is Rose Red the Vampire?

[@alexandriathomas3753]

Kayla Perkins I believe that was just a metaphor that one of the characters used. Ellen wasn’t a vampire. Just a ghost in the house that appeared to unsuspecting victims 😅 and basically the leader of Rose Red. The house ate people for power.

It was the house that was evil, it would "eat up" people and use them as pawns.

...and The Haunting

[@roomba.2374]

Stephen King wrote "Rose Red" as a loose retelling of "The Haunting of Hill House." He and Spielberg were working on a remake of it together- which eventually became the 1999 remake- but they couldn't pick a preferred way to remake the story, so they went their separate ways and King made "Rose Red." He was very open about it being a reimagining that blends his favorite elements from the original stories together and brings something new to the table.

[@servantofzardoz]

So this was a ripoff of the British horror film "Hell house" from the early 70's.
