🔪Stephen King / Horror Movie Night - Get in Your Vote!🔪

[TheresaV]

Hi everyone!

It's that time of the month again - We are finally back with our fourth offical Community Movie Night. This time, we had a great suggestion from our very own @Mi-Amigo to do a Stephen King-themed Movie Night. Unfortunately, there are only a few Stephen King films available on the major streaming services, so we added a couple more general horror movies we thought you would like the look (or thrill) of

If you happened to miss our previous Community Movie Nights (e.g. our Thriller Movie Night last month) this is your time to join! As before, the choice of film is yours - We have pre-selected eight Stephen King/Horror-themed films and will let you vote three times over the next three days until we have found the winning film that we then invite you to watch with us on Friday night at 8pm! 🍿

Of course we won't be able to sit together in front of the screen but that doesn't stop us - Right after voting has finished, we will create a special movie night thread here on the community where everyone can discuss the in's and out's and who's and what's whilst watching. I actually am becoming more resilient with every movie night, so hopefully this one won't scare me to death 

To explain it a bit more in detail: We have created a bracket that features eight movies to start with. Today you will be able to vote between two movies each and select your favourite four of the bunch in the comment section. Tomorrow we will then continue the voting between everyone's favourite four, and then again the day after tomorrow between your favourite two. The winning movie will then be the star of our movie night on Friday!

Sounds good? Get your microwave popcorn on the ready - set - vote! 🍿🍿🍿

Not to worry at all @BobM, hopefully you can join us on the next one again

I agree @Cleoriff @Mi-Amigo IT scares me to death, so I am rather happy it's not on the list. Especially SINCE I AM HOME ALONE ON FRIDAY

Christine is brilliant, as is Cujo. (Though I think the book (Cujo) was more frightening than the film)

For those fans of The Shining, King has written a pretty good follow up called Dr Sleep.

Follows the story of a grown up Danny Torrance (the child in the Shining).

Also The Institute is another cracking King book.

You mean Cujo the Chihuahua @Cleoriff ??

Finally (Just for @TheresaV )

Stephen King said this about Pet Sematary. "It was the most frightening book I had ever written. When I finished I shoved it in a drawer never intending to publish it. However, My publishing company were on my back as I was late with my promised book, so I sent in Pet Sematary"

Also would like to repeat a question already asked.

If Pet Sematary is chosen, is it the 1986 version or the latest one? (not sure the latest is on Netflix although someone said it was on Prime.??

In that case @TheresaV I really hope Pet Sematary is chosen.

I'll send you a pack of valium, an extra large cushion and a gun....

[TheresaV]

Oh boy sounds like I'm in for a treat then @Cleoriff  I wonder what he said about IT 

It's the 2019 version @Cleoriff as this is the one available on Netflix. Both are available on Prime but only to rent again 

[gmarkj]

Neither the original or the new version are included with Prime - both show rent or buy (at least on my account) @Cleoriff
