Unintentionally funny all the way though. Stephen King surprisingly sticks to the original tone of the story, but he's no Kubrick.

Even with the tacked-on and unlikely happy ending, this might have worked if he'd hired a competent director; the seedy North Carolina setting was perfect.

Look for Yeardly Smith (Lisa Simpson) in a role that explains why she found her calling in voice acting.
