So it's on now (Chiller network) and I can't get over how much I love this movie.

Seeing if others here do as well.

That part where he wakes up and Kathy Bates is standing there was so creepy.

Real good movie...

The first time she flips out is hilarious:

Annie Wilkes: It's the swearing, Paul. It has no nobility.
Paul Sheldon: These are slum kids, I was a slum kid. Everybody talks like that.
Annie Wilkes: THEY DO NOT! At the feedstore do I say, "Oh, now Wally, give me a bag of that F-in' pig feed, and a pound of that bitchly cow corn"? At the bank do I say, "Oh, Mrs. Malenger, here is one big bastard of a check, now give me some of your Christ-ing money!" THERE, LOOK THERE, NOW SEE WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!

True story:

SPOILER WARNING




I saw this with my mom in the theatre and when the sheriff died, my mom pulled an Annie and hollered out loud: "OH SUGAR!!!"

I love this movie. The book was pretty awesome as well.

Loved the book, thought the movie was pretty good and somewhat true to the source material. However, I'd have preferred if she had hobbled him the right way.

Have yet to read the book, but the 'hobbling' scene is a axing scene from what I hear.

That is AWESOME.

I loved the parody on The Critic

*she puts the board between his feet* "Please tell me we're gonna build something"

*he wakes up from blacking out* "OH MY FEET!! THEY'RE SWOLLEN AND DISCOLORED! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!!"

"Nothing"

"........I retain water".

And the part where Annie goes on about those Republic Commando Cody serials is so flippin' on the money.

I loved this movie and Kathy Bates well deserved the best actress oscar she won for it.
