I started reading his books in high school, and they started comforting me in a strange way. The first full novella of his that I finished was Dreamcatcher, the last one was one of his 4 seasons.
It IS nice to watch a good movie again, though King's stories I rather read the books again, as I said I find something comforting about them. Don't know if it's that alot of them take place around Maine, because of the woods or because of the repeated location.
Ok.. Maybe every six months ;) But if I like a movie, I study it, watch it frequently, like playing an album whenever you feel like.. Cause instead of searching and searching new movies, I always give chance to old ones too
