A classic in the horror genre. One of the few Stephen King movies that's worth watching and will get you screaming for more.

An unforgetable movie, due to his excellent acting. Nobody could have played that role better than him.

It`s in these kind of movies that we can see who are the real actors! We could even whatch it without any sound, just looking to the expressions of the Jack`s face gives us all the information we need!
