Funny..... I'd say the book was better you know though it does kind of remind me of an old 80's Twilight Zone or Outer Limits episode that perhaps slightly goes on a bit too long

i forgot Al from Quantum Leap was in it

you see Cat more reason to watch and enjoy

I saw The Langoliers.....good cast, especially Dean Stockwell, Bronson Pinchot and David Morse. Good story........it kept me watching cause I wanted to see what happened next. But the sight of Pinchot being chased is something I'll always remember

It was as though the film had suddenly strayed into a cartoon (a horror cartoon admittedly) by mistake! Maybe it was because the sfx could have been better? But I still enjoyed it

Yeah the special effects were particularly bad babe...though I'm glad it entertained you...you see Scorps ...its not that bad

The thing about some of King's stuff is that he can build up a story and characters great so much so that the endings always seem a disappointment or weak compared to the rest....I've accepted this now from King but still enjoy his developments of plot
