For the next two weeks of this literary challenge spin-off, it's a Stephen King ordeal, since that dude has infinite material.

From Sunday, May 12th to Saturday, May 25th:

+1 point per Stephen King movie OR tv show episode/mini-series episode, including sequels/episodes to his movies that he didn't necessarily have anything to do with. "It" (1990) is a mini-series, but it's basically 2 movies/episodes, and that would count as 2 points.

+1 if he directed it (Maximum Overdrive only)
+1 if set in Maine (ie Castle Rock)
+1 if a kid dies (does not stack)
+1 if an animal dies (does not stack)
+1 if he cameos (ie hogey-man in Knightriders)
+1 if Mick Garris directed it
+1 for FTV

Rewatches don't count. Make your SPOT, cuz this could get interesting.

I'm not crazy about it, but I barely remember it. It's one of King's stories in which a group of children are the protagonists, like "IT", only IT has the horror elements that I crave.

I do remember the Clerks cartoon homage, though. Snootch... to the nootch.

Lol I was being sarcastic. It never felt like Stephen King to me. I am probably going to watch that, Green Mile and Shaw Shank first to get the non-horrors out of the way.

So serious question. Mr. Jangles just died in Green Mile, but I know he's about to come back to life. Do I still get that point?

If the animal dies, it counts. I never specified that it has to stay dead, because that's not conventional Stephen King logic for dead things to stay dead.

I'd count it. Strange to see a bluray of a doc like this, but that's one sexy cover.

This was a fun effort. Ballz kicked everyone's asses.

73 - Ballz
35 - Owl
27 - Box
15 - Zombie
7 - Bambi
6 - Foz
3 - Der

I barely made a dent in King's filmography. I have no excuses. Next time, I think there ought to be the Frank Durabont point and a bully point.
