I kind of want to see this because it does look interesting, but I have been turned off of watching anything King related since watching Dreamcatcher which is in my top 3 worst movies I have ever seen. Should I bother or is it not worth my time?

For those of you who haven't seen this film, yes it is very much worth watching (and owning). Probably the best Stephen King adaptation ever. This was my favorite movie of last year by far. I can't praise this film enough. If you liked the other Darabont/King movies, then you'll like this.
This is a day one 2 disc purchase for me.

That's good to hear, thanks. I'll probably give it a blind buy then.

I'm very curious about this b&w version included on the 2-disc set. Sounds like an interesting idea, although I don't know if I could watch the entire film like that.

So no HD version? Weak sauce. Netflix wins again.
