[@Spiralredd]

If anything Chris hargenson was the villain cuz she was such a sore loser that she went and ruined an innocent girls magical prom night

[@JBDude52]

Top 3 (In my opinion): 1. Here's Johnny 2. Carrie's revenge 3. Georgie's murder That line from the Shining will never get old, it is so iconic, it's one of the best quotes in movie history. Stephen King's first novel movie, Carrie, was a perfect way to start off his work and that scene makes it even more spectacular. And the IT movie is one of the best recent horror movies yet, and Georgie's death scene was a great way to bring the horror into a new generation. Fantastic! Stephen King has to be one of the best novelists of all time.

[@englishatheart]

It's an overrated and dumb line. I loathe Kubrick's insult to The Shining.

I am so glad to see the Salems lot entry as it the movie that truly got me into king. I notice that the window scenes are always talked about but I almost never hear people talk about the "look at me" scene which is in my mind one the creepiest movie scenes ever.

[@christineparis5607]

I totally loved that film, it was so fun and scary. My sister lived in the Northwest and I went to visit her to see the great cemetary and some of the houses used on the film. That cemetary was really old AND creepy, even at noon on a sunny day, it gave me shivers. The houses were all old Victorian era. I wonder if the town is still the same, I hope so, it was so cool....

[@benduffy2782]

Agreed I was really glad when they added that scene to the remake

For me, one of the best King sequences was in "Shawshank Redemption", when Andy locks himself in the warden's office, and--of all things--plays the Letter Duet from Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro", putting it on the intercom for the entire prison. The narration was the perfect icing on the cake: "I have no idea to this day what those two Italian women were singing. Truth is, I don't want to know."

When Carrie’s hand came up from the grave, I like to say my dad is the first in horror history to have a huge jump scare, he jumped out of his chair

[@dawnpowers7626]

I saw an interview where SK saw the movie in the theater when it was new. He was either in front of or just behind a couple of big guys and when that hand comes out at the end, they jumped and one of them said, "She ain't NEVER gonna be right!" That's when SK knew it would be a success.

[@LTJfan]

The hobbling scene from Misery will never escape my mind

[@coolnerdlll6053]

My dad told me a story about seeing Misery with his friend in 1990. They were both really confused at the start of that scene, and when she picked up the hammer my dad's friend went "Oh my god!"

What I find funny is how in Cujo, the boy dies in the book but lives in the movie, whereas in The Mist, the boy lives in the book but dies in the movie. 😂

[@thedevilsrockstxr2309]

I mean always being nihilistic is also pretty cliche and one dimensional

[@olvialee7221]

Stephen King making a cameo is a great scene

[@DJGamingSmash]

Baseball Boy is def #1. Jacob Tremblay gives the greatest cameo performance of all time, let alone child actor performance.

[@benlevan5645]

The ending of The Mist is definitely going to linger in the horror genre as the perfect way to pull out a heart wrenching, emotional twist just when you thought things couldn't get bleaker for the hero/heroes.

[@dawnpowers7626]

The funny part is that's not how the story ends. The film's is much better, heart-breaking.

[@stephb3321]

Christine probably wasn’t the best acted and it only loosely followed the book, but I really loved it. This movie and Carrie showed that bullying will not be tolerated.

[@xyzharrishuang]

I think Carrie's mom is a lot worse than Christine. She constantly abuses her, teaches her it's a shame be be a woman, never care about if she's bullied The only thing she teaches Carrie right is how to weave and she learns it well Though Christine is willing to be evil while Margaret may not intend to hurt her children Christine is just the last straw

[@seasonsstarsstudios]

It’s still a good movie despite that.

[@englishatheart]

@Barry Dingle That's because too many religious people think they can do what they want, regardless of how vile and evil it is, because all they have to do is ask for forgiveness and everything will be fine. They don't realize that being granted forgiveness is based on you genuinely being regretful and sorry for your actions. Continuing to do the bad things and thinking going to church is all you need to do to make up for it isn't genuinely wanting forgiveness. You don't continue to do terrible things if you're truly sorry for them.

[@williamsummerson1204]

My favorites 1. Georgies murder. IT 2017. Bill Skarsgard was phenomenal as pennywise and that scene is disturbing, terrifying and tragic. 2. Here's Johnny. The Shining. All I need to say is Jack Nicholson. 3. Andy's Escape. Shawshank Redemption. One of the best scenes in movie history 4. Coffey's Execution. The green mile. Heartbreaking, emotional and wonderfully acted. 5. Abra meets Rose the hat. Dr. Sleep. When abra shoves rose down the grocery store isle always gives me goosebumps and it's just badass . 6. Carrie's Revenge. Carrie. Karma is a bitch. Ryan narrated the video perfectly.

[@MadScientyst]

Carrie unleashing HELL will always be my #1...in any version! Next up, Georgie's death in 'It.' Craig Toomey's death in 'Langoliers.' When Gage gets killed in 'Pet Sematary'....vicious. That hobbling scene from 'Misery'....unexpected & brutal. Think those are my top 5...

Drew Struzan's illustration of Andy standing in the rain as a portion of the movie poster for Shawshank Redemption is my favorite illustration ever, period. As an illustrator myself, that piece always awes me from the rendering of the rain to the dynamic movement in the arch of Andy's spine and flow of his shirt behind him. I could stare at it forever. Anybody who loves illustrated movie posters needs to check out his work, particularly the book "The Art of Drew Struzan". He's the artist behind just about every iconic illustrated movie poster ever made, and that book has alternate ideas for several of the posters as well as raw pencil drawings for the images we all know so well. For artists in particular, those pencil drawings are _magical._

[@julianaadams5751]

What about, in the final scenes of The Stand, when "the Hand of God came down and destroyed the righteous and unrighteous alike". That was a great scene in Las Vegas when Randall Flagg was brought down to his knees. This book and movie will always be my favorites.

I was really into reading Stephen King novels and watching movie adaptations for about a year and a half from late 2002 to around mid 2004. Then I stopped and know very little of any of his works post 2004. I think it was after spending 4.5 years going to college in a small town in Michigan and learning that behind the idyllic facade of your Mayberry-looking small town America there’s a lot of weirdness going on. It’s then not too much of a stretch to imagine the kind of scenarios laid out in Kings stories.

At the end of" The Green Mile", when Paul speaks. If Mr jingles has lived more than 200 times his normal 2 year life expectancy and hes still alive now, how long does Paul have before death finally claims him?

My most favorite moment in "Stand By Me" would definitely have to be the pie-eating contest story scene because of how hilarious and gross it is for a scene featured in any Steven King movie. Plus, you couldn't help but root for the story's main character, Davie "Lard-A**" Hogan, when he purposefully makes himself sick during the contest as a way of getting back at everyone who made fun of him for this fat weight. ;)

One of the best scenes in Delores Claiborne was not included in the film. In the book, after her husband falls into the well, she looks down--the eclipse is at its zenith--and she sees (as if through a tunnel) a little naked girl, and instantly knows that the girl's father--like her own husband--had been trying to have sex with her. In the book Gerald's Game, we see that little girl as a grown up, she is tied to a bed, her husband on the floor, dead, and she flashes back to the days leading up to the eclipse she witnessed as a child. In the flashback she can't hide from the truth--that she had been jealous of her mother, and wanted her father's attention, so she would do things to try to turn him on sexually. When he rejects her, she get down on her knees and reached for her underwear. They are under the bed. She looks under the bed, just as the eclipse reaches it zenith, she peers beneath the bed and sees--as if at the other end of a dark tunnel, the face of a woman leaning over a well. Instantly, she, like Delores--the woman she sees--knows everything. She knows Delores has just murdered her husband. That scene was so powerful that it made both books good.

[@dawnpowers7626]

That's only in the movie, because that's not how it plays in the novel "Gerald's Game." She wasn't doing it on purpose and didn't know the effect it had on her father to sit on his lap.
