I barely remember watching this so my memory might be a bit fuzzy I mostly remember it was supposed too be more in line with the King short story....All I know is I spent most of the movie watching a couple argue through the better part of the movie If I wanted to do that I'd watch one of those nauseating reality shows

I don't know if this is a remake or a re-imagining, but come on - the original was garbage. This is re-imagined garbage, which, as you would imagine, looks just like garbage, only re-imagined.

The acting & direction's as good as its ever been here. That results in just 1 great shot of kids chasing the protagonist in an open field & some effectively creepy sacrifices at the end. But the script & ideas? Awful for more than half the film. & King co-wrote this. Why does he make the female lead so bitchy it makes the first 1/2 excruciating? & why cast an adorable moppet as cult leader? Things only get interesting when the lead goes Rambo, but it pads 15 minutes of story to 40.

bad movie

Focuses a lot more on the religion aspect than the original, but something feels wrong about the main characters' relationship. The husband and wife have way too many issues and it creates an unbalanced movie, in my opinion. I like how Burt is a total tough guy, and actually fights the kids (and really messes them up). Overall, the character of Burt really saved the movie for me; I enjoyed it, overall.

I was excited for the remake that would hopefully bring this to the level it should have been the first time around... what I saw was a disaster!

When you film makes the original, which isn't a good film, look good you have a problem

Idk why but i was expecting even worse tbh. Also, the protagonist is a piece of shit wtf, i despise him so much >:(

I've seen high-school plays that were better on all counts - acting, direction, production, even lighting. This is a terrible film, incompetent in all the ways that count.
