(he waves his hands in a spooky manner) The Langoliers. But that doesn't mean I have to like everything he’s done, and on top of that, that doesn't mean that the movies and miniseries based on his books are that great either. He’s a very talented writer and has written some very good stories. NC (voiceover): Okay, before you guys go nuts, I want to emphasize I don’t hate Stephen King. (Images of Stephen King, the covers of a couple of his books, and posters of film adaptations of his books are shown as NC speaks) Whoa! (He ducks as the title “The Stephen King Miniseries” comes at him) You’re about to enter…the Stephen King Miniseries. Behind that door, a shitty remake that fucks it all up. Behind that door are two scary little girls. A world where plot devices are either over-explained or not explained enough.
A world where hammy acting is rewarded and terrible effects are the norm. A world of overused characters and clichés. NC: You’re entering a world of awkwardness. (The review opens in a “Twilight Zone” style, and NC speaks spoofing Rod Serling's narration along with clips from Stephen King’s film adaptations in the background)
