| | Anonymous 03/07/2007 | I just loved it my sister and I couldn't keep away from the TV. I think Stephen King rocks but his moovies give me the creepy crawly. Ugh! And I never thought the mind reader would die. I would have wished for the guy who gets his fingers cut of to die. He was just too creepy. But I loved the last part when the gosts hum "A Summer Place."
Roses mean Reamember! =D |
