Trivia
Stephen King sold the movie rights for one dollar.

Goofs
The length of Jonesy's facial hair changes throughout the movie.

Quotes
Gary 'Jonesy' Jones: Fuck you.
Mr. Gray: I know what that expression means. I've studied the foul language section of your memory warehouse. Rather distasteful, I must say.
Gary 'Jonesy' Jones: How about this, Mr. Gray? Eat shit and die.

Crazy credits
The Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow logos are covered in snow, while the Castle Rock Entertainment lighthouse beams its light across a lake covered in snow.

Alternate versions
SPOILER: The DVD contains the original ending, in which Duddits defeats the alien using a special power, but is NOT revealed to be an alien. He then succumbs to his leukemia and dies. Jonesy and Henry then visit his gravesite in the final scene and sing "Blue Bayou."

Interesting Mix Of A FIlm

For me this is one of the better Stephen King adaptations, largely due to the exceptional cast.

The plot is a bit iffy but the relationship between the 'boys' is quite engaging.

Worth a look :)
