Season 1 Review: But he has created a creepy tale that anyone who enjoys being scared — without being totally grossed out — will enjoy. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It won't add snap to anyone's synapses. It's a dumbly, numbly entertaining pastiche about a bad house. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It's not enough to justify a six-hour investment, but the climactic special effects at least are first-rate and fun to watch. "Rose Red" otherwise is just too hilarious at times. Not entirely horrid, it's way short on horror. For shame, Stephen King. Larry King is sometimes scarier than this. [27 Jan 2002]

Season 1 Review: "Rose Red delivers a better story than his last opus (1999's "Storm of the Century") with better developed characters, but at the end I still felt like I'd wasted a lot of time. What's the point in setting up an intriguing, intricate backstory without offering some answers? Read full review

Season 1 Review: The same tech crew that brought viewers the highly effective "Storm of the Century" forgot to include the mojo this time around...A far cry from the kind of scarefest his fans have come to expect. Read full review

Season 1 Review: King’s characters inspire indifference—except for the ones who are actively annoying—so you’re unlikely to care that some of the ghostbusters wind up dead. The author has a cheeky cameo in part 2 as a pizza delivery man, but instead of wasting his time acting he should have thought up a satisfying ending. After six hours of Rose Red, it’s truly scary to contemplate that the story may not be over. Bottom Line: Bring on the wrecking ball. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Legend has it that 23 people disappeared at Rose Red. On the strength of King's name, millions more are bound to get lost there. So a warning: It's a long, punishing program that will leave you stupefied in Seattle. [27 Jan 2002, p.4]
