Shawshank? Shining? Mist? Green Mile? Misery? Maybe not everything is a winner, but these are pretty classic movies and some like Pet Sematary, Thinner, Carrie, Dream Catcher and many others are not bad movies. The Running Man wasn’t super well made (old one) but a decent movie for it’s time. I haven’t even seen half of his adapted works and I just rattled off 10 movies that pretty universally are not seen as “pretty bad”:

Good points, actually. I’ve seen Shawshank, Shining and Misery and they were all good.
