The master of horror at his best in a box set. It doesn't come any better - these are some of his classics. So put on the popcorn and put the kids to bed - kick back and have a great time!

This is an essential Stephen King collection...a lot of his earlier works..well worth the price if you enjoy Stephen King

I give five stars for The Dead Zone and Silver Bullet. I give four stars to Pet Semetary. Zero stars go to Graveyard Shift. All in all, it is a good set that is worth the price for three of the films. Just buy it for The Dead Zone, Silver Bullet, and Pet Semetary.

Certainly, my opinion is subjective because I like this sort of fare, silly and all. "Graveyard Shift" is indeed the weakest one, made entertaining by the bad acting of all involved. "Pet Sematary" is also badly acted, though Fred Gwynne is on hand to save much of it. It's one of King's more mean-spirited plots, and if there was humor involved (as the extras purport), I missed most of it. "Silver Bullet" is an odd film, a rather sweet coming-of-age film with a twist. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. (Even Corey Haim was almost tolerable.) And, of course, the special edition of "The Dead Zone" stands way above the rest. Fine acting and direction help secure its place among the best King films. Save it for last...OK, some are silly and mindless, but I like most horror films for that very reason. This collection has the added benefit of a couple of winners. The widescreen transfer is excellent. The price is good. I recommend it...all 4 are true to King, inasmuch as they all take place in Maine.

please find me more stephem king multi pack movie sets please i can't get enough stephen king. they are awesome movies and awesome prices too. thank you jean.

If you enjoy Brad Dourif's work, GRAVEYARD SHIFT is for you. I really enjoyed him as the exterminator in this film. He has a certain over-the-top knack for performance that makes him an indespensible character actor in any role that must be played with intensity.

He has made many important screen appearances in the X-Files, Alien 4, "Exorcist III" as the Gemini Killer (1990), and Gríma Wormtongue in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy (and many others). His unique acting style made all these films special for me.

I've Been A stephen king Fan All Times i've read all books of the old days, Carrie, Cujo, salem's Lot etc.... and watching them is a dream come true especially the dead zone there should me more combination of these packs for us customers

Everything I've ever ordered from Amazon, or from anyone selling through Amazon has been top notch service and product. This goes from the first up to the present.

The Stephen King Collection is pretty good. Although, it would have been better if they would have used something such as "Sleepwalkers," instead of "The Dead Zone."

Pet Sematary and Dead Zone are good, but the others are lousy. Really lousy. Silver Bullet is just stupid.
