Stephen King Movies, Ranked from Worst to Best
Last updated May 2023 to add The Boogeyman
Recent releases It and The Dark Tower have been erected on the most fertile, if haunted, of Hollywood grounds: Stephen King territory.
While conventional wisdom says King's horror tales "don't translate well to film," a Metacritic look at his theatrical releases shows that the vast majority of them received, at worst, mixed-to-average critical notices. Nine films, or about one-quarter of the titles, are in the green.
In this adaption of the eponymous novel series, Roland Deschain (Idris Elba) must stop Walter O’Dim (Matthew McConaughey) from destroying the Dark Tower in order to save Earth and Deschain’s parallel universe.
Paste Magazine said this 2017 film is “so devoid of content and meaning that it’s easy to watch in spite of its terribleness.”
