Haven't seen a thread yet.  This one is getting a lot of hype heading into its release.  81% rating on Rotten Tomatoes so far.  Winner of the People's Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.  

I read the short story in Stephen King's If It Bleeds a few years ago.  I remember enjoying it, and it had a kind of heavy "each human life is its own universe" type theme.  But I don't recall the makings of a feature film.  Still, some of King's works from his short story/novella collections have been solid to outstanding films (e.g., Stand By Me, Children of the Corn, Shawshank Redemption).  Will probably check it out in the theater.

 

I really liked it. It's a very faithful adaptation of the story, and like you, when I read the story I couldn't imagine it as a feature film. But it's surprisingly feel-good, considering the first act, and has tons of great cameos. I don't think I've seen Mia Sara in anything since Ferris Bueller and she was great here. If you're a Flanagan fan, and a Stephen King fan, I'd definitely see it in a theater.

I feel like I'm starting to get a sense of your taste and I bet you've seen everything Mike Flanagan has done.

I have, and I'm assuming (hoping) this is a compliment. :)
