this movie is based on a stephen king novel in which mysterious new shopkeeper leland gaunt (max von sydow) offers each citizen of castle rock the item he or she most desires  but there is a heavy price to be paid for these transactions. local sheriff alan pangborn (ed harris) is soon forced to deal with a variety of brutal deaths and suspicious circumstances. below average for stephen king cinema represent i can see why some people would think it was boring. it plods along without offering genuine scares and forces the viewer to spend time (yet again) with a bunch of repulsive losers whose hatred of each other is spooky. i do enjoy the novel and do not believe that this lackluster movie does it justice. there are too many unfortunate changes from book to screen. von sydow makes gaunt much too charming. were supposed to be scared of gaunt at the right times and not amused by him. i also hate it that the sheriff primary deputy (ray mckinnon) is written and portrayed as such an annoying and barney fife type moron. star ed harris looks as if he was forced into doing this picture by his agent and but professional that he is and he really sinks his teeth into his dialog. bonnie bedelia (as pangborn love interest polly) and amanda plummer (in one of her standard mentally unbalanced roles) come the closest to creating characters who are likable. yet it is also foul and mean spirited. although i will be darned if it do not feel a little cathartic watching a bunch of unlikable movie characters tear each other to pieces. the climax has some good explosions. i often give movies a better rating than they probably deserve and but in this case i feel i should really be honest and just say represent negative .
