    Though it was definitely cheezy, and probably only like it so much because of the young age that I first watched it, I would like to nominate Maximum Overdrive as it was my favorite King growing up.

    Also like to 8th both Stand By Me and Shawshank Redemption, and 7th Green Mile

    I know Shawshank, Green Mile, and Stand by Me are the absolute cat's ass, just to be contrary I'm nominating Battleground from Nightmares and Dreamscapes. I loved the story and I loved the screen adaptation.

    I'm guessing that with all the nominations for Darabont's adaptations of King movies that this is a case of most people not having seen this one. It's really well done. If you can find a copy it's well worth watching.

    I was under the impression I could only nominate one flick, and I've already nominated The Shining.

    So, if we keep nominating separate episodes, does that mean that I should add your vote to each of them?

    We can second more than one, yes?

    I'll eleventh Shawshank, eighth The Green Mile and third Battleground.
