Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

GL84 Returning to his home-town, a teacher and his family find that the traumatic incident involving his big brother while he was growing up has caused the greaser-gang also included in the event to come back and torment them forcing a final showdown to right the wrong.This one here wasn't all that bad even though it does have some issues. One of the film's biggest positives is the fact that this one really manages to get the fear of being involved in a traumatic incident from the past in a small-town. The fact that the initial accident itself feels like the kind of accident that really could happen in such a location, with the greaser gang tormenting them and then getting caught up in the train coming through the tunnel does come off like a rather enjoyable setup for later, and with the way this holds up the different incidents later on that trigger the incidents later on. From the dropped set of car-keys to the shoes and the kids coming one-by-one into the classroom, the set-up from these incidents plays a great part in how this one manages to come off when it starts to reveal what their actual purpose is for returning. Those are quite fun as the different variations of them appearing as students in his classroom while taunting him in the town, the ways in which they manage to fool everyone in class as well as the town who constantly think he's having mental breakdowns based on his past history which comes into play quite nicely and overall manages to give this one a great build-up for the story to play out in the later half. With the group out and tormenting him and his family with some rather impressive stalking scenes of the family at the house and the later scene in the church where they get taken away leading into the final confrontation in the tunnel once again as this makes for a rather thrilling and engaging finish that plays out the fateful accident that came through in the rest of the film. With these action-packed scenes that come together into giving this a lot to like alongside the few fine make-up effects on the ghouls who look quite creepy and chilling, there's enough to like here that really manages to hold off the few minor flaws present. The film's biggest issue is the fact that we're not given a reason to care about why the greaser club is seeking revenge, as the film makes the point of them coming back for him killing them only they deserved their fate so it's really troubling to get into the story. The gang is a total joke that simply act like tough-guy greasers but are just so over-the-top in their silly threats that it makes for a pretty hard time to find fear in them for the whole film as they're return doesn't make any sense. The other big issue here does manage to carry on about that with there not being any real reason stated about why they come back to begin with as there's just nothing explained about why they come back to life here at that point in time. By simply showing up saying they want revenge but never explaining how they manage to do so when they clearly never deserved to do so in the first place makes them so simply non-threatening that as a whole the film really stumbles with the main villains. That it also gets a little too schmaltzy with the fantasy-driven finale that looks quite goofy and silly against the more realistic elements, these here do hold it down somewhat.Rated R: Language and Violence.

classicsoncall Ever wonder to yourself what Stephen King must have been like as a kid? Could have been really creepy or as normal as the next guy. I'd just like to know where the imagination came from. Though not as terrifying as "It" or "The Shining", this picture still manages to capture that Stephen King quality of fear and anxiety right around the corner in the midst of normalcy. I had to chuckle at Dr. Bernardi's 'see something, say something' approach to the students following the death of two classmates; isn't that always the case until somebody has something to say? King used an interesting approach to his story here. A resurrected thug from the past showed up whenever someone died in the present. That idea telegraphed the finale as I was fully expecting Jim's (Tim Matheson) brother Wayne (Chris Demetral) to show up for the final confrontation. The kicker had to do with the car key, it didn't make any difference that it got dropped during the scuffle the first time around, the hoods were goners anyway. The real puzzler is how they managed to resurrect the 1955 Chevy.

Majid-Hamid STCM is surely an underrated masterpiece written by Stephen King (SK)and excellently directed to become one of the most greatest horror film within SK movies. Most of SK movies is exceptional, they were great ( STCM, FIRESTARTER, SHINING, CARRIE, MISERY, ....) but some is definitely bad, i mean it's bad but it's so good to watch (MANGLER, STCM2, STCM3, ..) But i am disagree with the rating given, for i think this movie should be a given a higher rating at least 7.0. This is because the movie is so good, the plot line, climax and also the acting performances showed by Tim Matheson are really convincing.Overall i rate this movie 10 out of 10 (Excellent)

gavin6942 Based on a short story by Stephen King, a man (Tim Matheson) and his family return to his home town, but he is then harassed by teenagers that died when he was a kid.This film has King written all over it: the use of a train, the idea of a problem for kids transferring over to when they are adults... but this film is pale in comparison to "Stand By Me" or "It". I mean, it is not a terrible movie, but far from being listed in the better half of King's work.Not really much else to say about this one... I guess I could ask about why it took 27 years for the kids to come back, why 27 years exactly... or how the first kid came back if you need to kill someone to bring another person back. But these are plot points that would only ruin the story...This is a great villain role for Robert Rusler, whose career seemed to peak and fade too quickly. Rusler's a great guy, and it would have been nice to see him in a few more big projects of the era. This also is a solid entry in the career of director Tom McLoughlin, who horror fans might know for "Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives" (1986).
