This review is from: Stephen King's Nightshift Collection: Disciples of the Crow/The Night Waiter (VHS Tape)
Two nightshift videos both with two shorts. These two movies complete my collection of every available Stephen King movie. Now about this movie which contains two shorts. Firstly, "The diciples of the crow." This is a cheesy knock off of "The Children of the corn." I must say I can't recomed this short as it has a begining but no end, The main characters drive off and nothing happens from there except the end. Good to watch once but do it before you buy the actual "Children of the Corn," movie which is a classic and one of the first movies of King's collection I ever bought. This short is the sole reason I give this video such a low rating. It is so bad it stinks up the next short which is much better. "The Night Waiter," winner of an emmy and deservingly so. I won't spoil the story but if you've ever seen another of King's movies called, "1408," then your prepared for a similar ride. Sure the effects are lacking and a skelaton and dirty feet aren't that scarry but the voice of the ghost is chilling. It has a quick and surprising ending that leaves the viewer wanting more. If only this were a big budget film with all the bells, whistles, and content and you'd have a great film. But then again only one of two haunted hotel movies written by the same author can get the glory. If you liked 1408 you will love this little gem. Too bad the first short was such a stinker.
