mszanadu I see you put Stephen King's Rose Red on your list--good one to watch leading up to Hallowe'en? I've been interested in it a long time because it's apparently King's take on the Shirley Jackson Haunting of Hill House tale, and I've long wanted to see versions other than the two "official" adaptations. (I'm a definite fan of Miss Jackson's book and read it every October.) I totally agree with you here Salzmank . Stephen King's Rose Red from 2002 does really make the perfect TV Movie for the traditional Halloween movie watch list along with it's prequel The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer from 2003 as well ( both are so excellent to watch back to back too ) . I'm most definitely an easy audience for the whole haunted house / mansion storyline film here . Although these 2 particular films are not TV Movies I do highly recommend these to you because of your interest in " Shirley Jackson's Haunting of Hill House tale " . The Haunting (1963 film) The Haunting (1999 film) If you have not seen these 2 films before my suggestion is to add these to your list of Halloween films to watch soon as well . Another really good yet effective as well as eerie film for the haunted house / mansion storyline here too . The Legend of Hell House (1973 film) Thanks so much Salzmank for your reply .

anne of green freaking gables -- all three parts.
the shining from 1997 -- very well done and it matches the book much better. delves into the upbringing of the parents better.
the first made for tv movie I saw that wasn't a child's book adaptation... THE BETTY BRODRICK STORY. A WOMAN SCORNED.
and later on I saw the final fury. shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!
