Title: Did anyone think this was scary?
Review: With a running time of 254 minutes, this easily could have been cut down to around 60. I believe around 100 minutes of this mini-series were devoted to unnecessary overhead shots of the house.So what's the problem with this? Surprisingly, for something from Stephen King, it is just not scary. There is nothing here that hasn't already been done better in books like "Hell House" or "The Haunting of Hill House."The story takes much too long to develop. Too much talking. Too little action. And, unfortunately, it is filled with unlikable characters that you never feel for. It's hard to watch a horror movie if you don't really care if any of the characters even survive.This breaks a pretty impressive recent string of interesting King film projects and takes him right back to the awful days of "Maximum Overdrive." Save your money for much better movies.
