Fantastic

Loved this movie. I watched it years ago when it was aired on TV in weekly parts and loved seeing it again. It's good versus evil after a virus kills most humans. The survivors who choose the side of good have to battle 'Randall Flagg' a demon in human form. The actors are fantastic. I especially loved Gary Sinese and Rob Lowe. This is very long (about 6 hours) but worth every second.

Read the book instead

The book is an absolute masterpiece as in true King style this only really works on paper.

Don't get me wrong, it has its moments but some of the central themes which work so well in the book just really don't translate to film. There are moments of shocking acting too.

Central characters like Nick Andros (the dear mute)are amazing in the book and portrayed in a realistic way (as far as I can tell). Sadly Rob Lowe plays the part as if he's a french mime artist. All gurning and big smiles. All he needed was a stripey top and the picture would have been complete.

So. read the book instead.
