Another adaptation...this one proved controversial! The Stand mini series, quite well reviewed at the time but lets just say it hasn't aged well. let us know your thought by emailing in to [email protected] and please do subscribe.

A bonus episode here dissecting the excellent Haunting Of Hill House! Just Len and Gaz in this episode as the others were literally too scared to watch the show...make of that what you will...The show blends excellent horror sequences with a real emotional gut punch that left us reeling by the time it had finished. Let us know your thoughts on it by emailing us at [email protected] 

Well this is meant to be one of the best SK adaptations...we aren't so sure. Lacking any real horror or tension the gang felt a little flat after watching this one and Emma has a lot to say about the source material too.
