Bad writing, bad acting, and bad direction make this an excruciating viewing experience. Yet I keep watching, episode after episode, hoping it will get better. It doesn't. Fast forward through it; one ends up cheering for the aliens.
I thought the editing was at fault, but nothing could have saved this utter mess. In fairness, the book wasn't King's best so how could the series on which it is based be any better. It wasn't.
More a moving painting than a film. It's a study in light, texture, colour and mood. I confess I couldn't stop watching because every shot was so...beautiful. A haunting, melancholy film and nearly perfect.
