Graham Masterton's Walkers

As always, he writes so visually and powerfully, as well as verrrrry gruesomely! I don't like gory movies, but this one has such an amazing story having to do with lea lines and people trapped in the environs of a deserted asylum. It is so full of horrific scenes that could be done with CGI. Even if it's filmed, I'm not sure that I could handle watching it since the book itself can become far too much for me. Yes, I've read it a number of times and likely will tackle it and his other novels again someday.

Sadly, the only novel filmed, "The Manitou", was done rather poorly. If they have a powerful story, why change it?! That really confuses me that Hollywood persists in doing this when it's been proven that the author who is allowed to do a screenplay can have a hit (Thomas Tryon's "The Other", for example).

summary:
In Masterton's latest, quite effective horror novel, Jack Reed, who runs a muffler shop, comes upon a "castle" that serves as the setting for this gruesome horror story. Jack decides to turn the abandoned mansion into a resort--not that he really knows how. He knows even less about the Druid magic that allowed the recent occupants, dangerous mental patients, to "escape" into the building's walls. Led by a vicious brute, Quintus, the "earth walkers" kidnap Jack's son, Randy, and demand the return of the priest who had trapped them in 1926. The priest is "persuaded" to free them from the confinement of the castle's grounds, but they will not be freed from the earth until each has killed 800 people as sacrifices to the gods. Wasting no time, the tribe "walks off" for a murderous orgy of killing, dragging their screaming victims into the "underworld"--where Randy is still a captive. Readers who fancy unrestrained terror won't mind indulging in the wild suspension of disbelief that Masterton (Mirror) demands.

I'm wasn't a fan of his, but "The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell" by Marilyn Manson.

I saw that it was a New York Times Bestseller so I thought it I would see why. He had such an interseting life! He's a very smart guy and it was interseting to see how a little kid in a Christian school could grow up to be Marilyn Manson. To see his early days played out on the big screen would be the best autobiography ever made on film and there have been many. It was so good that I bought the book and a CD. Now I'm a huge fan. I think when someone takes the time to listen and understand somebody, they can see past what you only get by judging at a glance.

I agree with iltwym. Stephen King's "Gerald's Game" would be very interesting.

Enders Game

Probably be hard to do. You would need alot of high level acting from children. Also, probably have to make the kids a bit older.
