The movie may have changed some things from the book but I think it works well on screen.

I’m 51 now and it aired on UK television as a two part series. I don’t remember how old I was when I saw it but I absolutely loved it. Our family had just got a VCR so I was able to record it. A couple of years ago I had night terrors, I was absolutely frozen stiff, dreaming about The Master, I woke up in such a sweat I knew there was only one cure, I got up and watched the entire thing from start to finish. Thanks Steven King, it’s an absolute classic that will always live with me.

Definitely one of the best experiences. It would be cool to do an exact remake of this but of course with enhanced special effects on top of what was already great. If I had money, that’s exactly what I will do, of course add more scary scenes and modernize it a bit, but I will keep maybe 90% of this masterpiece.
