mysterious
tense
4.0
Nice collection of short stories - some great and some uh... not so much! Now for a short summary:
"Jerusalem's Lot" - god I love 'Salem's Lot
"Graveyard Shift"- this main character is batshit CRAZY
"Night Surf" - meh
"I Am the Doorway"- this is gay body horror I won't hear otherwise
"The Mangler" - so cooky I kinda of love it
"The Boogeyman" - GREAT one
"Gray Matter" - I'm not scared of jello, sorry :/
"Battleground" - silly fun!
"Trucks" - transformers for people who hate cars. fun.
"Sometimes They Come Back" - it's good! the ending is disheartening
"Strawberry Spring" - another GREAT one
"The Ledge" - Creepshow did it better and they had Leslie Nielsen
"The Lawnmower Man" - Stephen King would like for you to know that he hates fat people. 4/10 for the Greek references.
"Quitters, Inc." - I chuckled.
"I Know What You Need" - so disturbing oh my god read this one!!!
"Children of the Corn" - I can't believe they made 11 movies out of this. it's a great story, but 11 movies?
"The Last Rung on the Ladder" - so tragic and so so sad
"The Man Who Loved Flowers" - cheap. could see that coming from a mile away
"One for the Road" - I! LOVE! 'SALEM'S LOT!! first story was better though.
"The Woman in the Room" - I teared up a little at the end there lol
