So excluding stuff like The Shawshank Redemption (1994), The Green Mile (1999) and
Stand by Me (1986). Just strictly horror. I found it difficult to restrict it to just five but here is what makes my top five:
Storm of the Century (1999 Mini-Series)
Pet Sematary (1989)
The Dark Half (1993)
The Shining (1980)
It (1990 Mini-Series)
There were a lot that missed the cut for me, especially The Dead Zone (1983) but it can't be helped. What sbout you? What are your Top 5 Stephen King horror adaptations?

Love everything about this movie. I met Piper Laurie, PJ Soles, and Nancy Allen, and had a place on my wall for this movie. I stole a dvd insert for this movie, because I needed it. I hate the 2013 remake, and I dislike the 2002 remake.
The Shining (1980)
Saw this in theaters recently, and it was great that the audience can still get hypnotized under the direction of Stanley Kubrick. Jack Nicholson was born to play a psycho, because he is one.
Creepshow (1982)
The best anthology ever, with a horror star-studded cast, and zero dull segments. This movie is an excessively atmospheric masterpiece.
The Dead Zone (1983)
Atypical Cronenberg drama with Christopher Walken. Super solid movie.
Pet Sematary (1989)
Creepy as hell tale of grief and bad choices made because of said grief. Now this... is a great horror movie... except the scenes with the ghost jogger. He's kind of a joke, but the rest is great!
