If this is the one I'm thinking of I saw it as a kid. I remember it creeping me out. I had forgotten all about this movie! Thanks for posting! As for the new Dark Tower, I'm a huge fan of the book series, but not so excited for the movie. I was until I found out they cast a black guy as the Gunslinger. Not trying to be racist, but he didn't come across to me as black in any of the novels.

The books are really good. Definitely worth a read.
