Rugeley Villa Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Ive always thought about giving his books a bash. My grandad has quite a few by him, so it won't cost me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Hasn't thought that it's a marketing tool, even though you'd have to think they wouldn't actively try to scare people, as like the op states one of them is going to get an arse kicking soon from someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of how dangerous the individual intends to be, they are still trying to intimidate and put fear into people who are going about their business. You'd think it's only a matter of time before they spook the wrong person and get the ever living shit kicked out of them. So they are terrorists (by definition). We can round them all up and send them back where they came from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not one of my favorites but yes the clown thing is very reminiscent in terms of the imagery. This clown thing is yet another example of how modern life is rubbish. It really is just intimidation but masquerading that it's just a bit of fun. Also the kind o of thing which properly wierd people will latch on to. But seriously with all the amazing things people can spend their free time on this is what they do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't need a Halloween clown in the mix too. Meant to add though it's a little off topic that my 2 favourite King books are actually a little off his normal style. The Talisman and The Stand, the latter is my favourite book of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It HAS to be the extended version. When originally published they made him leave loads of material out to make it sellable and hit a price point. He admits in the forward of the full version that he only released it purely for self gratification. I couldn't imagine reading the abridged version now with a wealth of additional scenes and side stories missing. It is however a monster.... With no clowns.
