Question of the Day #25: Which King movie frightened you the most?

Carrie is the most frightening movie to me because I'd never seen anything like it before that (in the 80's).  I still recall Carrie White being so gullible, misunderstood, unpopular, and to a certain degree hated by her classmates.  I couldn't believe how rotten her classmates were to her.  Unbenounced to them, she had these abilities that when she was angered she could be quite destructive.  This meek girl, dangerous?  Also, her mother was what most people would consider a holy roller that used  religion to try gain power over her daughter whom she feared.  As a young person, I felt that there were so many aspects to this story which made it both thought-provoking and  frightening.  You never quite know what others are capable of doing.  Thank you Tabitha for making sure that this book got written.  Sissy Spacek played this character so well!  The remake wasn't very good at all.

Question of the Day #21: Have you read any books written by Joe Hill, Owen King, or Tabitha King?

The books that I have read were written by Joe Hill. Heart-Shaped Box, and 20th Century Ghosts.  My understanding is that Stephen King's wife Tabitha King is also an accomplished author.  For a list of novels written by Tabitha King visit Wikipedia. She has also submitted photos that are placed on the flaps of some of SK's books.  I have yet to read any of her books but at some point I plan to read of some of them.  Owen King has authored  We're All In This Together: A Novella and Stories and his work has also appeared in various newspapers and magazines.
