It's bad. I did first read the short story that's the series is "based" on. I hate it how much liberty it took and just went on spooky spooky. Also the fight with the main bad guys....no, just no.

I personally liked it because of the incredible atmosphere, even with all the huge changes that were made to the original story.
Maybe it has the problem that 10 episodes were too many, 'cause it's very noticeable in the last 3 that the story was over-extended more, but even so it seemed one of the best adaptations of King's work.
