I really enjoy the movie Phantoms, but not because it’s as good as the book. It’s just a fun movie if you’re into that genre. But we could definitely add almost every Stephen King adaptation to this list. Don’t get me wrong–some of them I very much enjoy, but that doesn’t mean they’re not terrible (looking at you, The Stand (first one), Storm of the Century, and Tommyknockers).
Some Dean Koontz and Stephen King adaptations were pretty bad. Hideaway, Phantoms, The Dark Half, Sleepwalkers.

I mean, Ben Affleck was da bomb in Phantoms, yo.
Phantoms like a motherfucker!
And Liev Schreiber!
Phantoms was by Dean Koontz.
I know. The comment I replied to discussed both Dean Koontz and Stephen King.

I couldn’t get past the first couple chapters of Hideaway
