Big SK fan reporting in.
Yes, "It" was deffinitely among his best works. The characters were so well written and developed. The mini-series tried hard, but nothing could recreate the images of those kids grown into troubled adults.
Dreamcatcher reminded me more of Tommyknockers than the Dark Tower series...not sure why.
I went to see the movie alone..because I knew no one I know would enjoy it. The book was fresh in my mind and I will say that the sets and dialogue were faithful. Other than that, the movie script collapsed at the end and Duddits - the most interesting character in the book - was completely lost. Could they not find a Downs actor for the role?
If you loved the book, see the movie just for the visuals. Go with low expectations and you will not be disappointed.
