NM & DS Mini-Series

Apparently, several (actually eight) of Stephen King's short stories have been turned into a mini series call Nightmares & Dreamscapes. Not all of the films come from the actual book NM & DS. Some of them come from Everything's Eventual, etc. But they all seem to be well-produced, unlike some of SK's earlier compilation work.

They begin on July 12, 2006 at 9 p.m. on TNT.

The List of Stories:

Crouch End
Battleground (w/ William Hurt)
Umney's Last Case (w/ William H. Macy)
The End of the Whole Mess (w/ Ron Livingston)
The Road Virus Heads North (w/ Tom Berenger)
The Fifth Quarter
Autopsy Room Four
You Know They Got a Hell of a Band

All of the stories that were picked are pretty good. I've always wanted to see what 'Hell of a Band' would look like on film, and now I guess I get a shot. I've read most of the above stories more than once, so I'm pretty jacked about seeing all of them, starting in a few weeks. If you're a Stephen King fan, you won't be disappointed if you visit the web site.
