The Shining and The Stand are King's Best Novels bar none!

I agree. Not only is Randall Flagg from The Stand, he was also THE major villain in King's Eyes of the Dragon and the Dark Tower series, as well as several other novels under different names (Storm of the Century for example)

The Shinning and The Stand are King's Best Novels bar none!

Actually, The Shinning was a segment on a Treehouse of Horror episode of The Simpsons, and a great one at that!



Marge (reading): "Feelin' Fine.... No beer and no TV make Homer... go crazy."
Homer: "Don't mind if I do!"

Willie: "He has the shinning."
Bart: "Don't you mean the shining?"
Willie: "Shhhh... No, the shinning, lad. You want to be sued?"
Bart: "Oh right, the shinning."

Amazing episode!

The Shining in Sixty Seconds with Bunnies!

Enjoy!

 

[Wombat]

1. Ming the Merciless -- an errant computer program or a man who controls the destiny of thousands at his whim? Not a contest.
2. Great Cthulhu -- Frank is ambiguous; Cthulhu is beyond comprehension...
3. Professor James Moriarty (Sherlock Holmes) -- Holmes needed only one adversary to keep him on his toes
4. The Joker -- much as I like ol' Wicked, Joker is sick, twisted, inventive, clever, and plain crackers!
5. Galactus -- A guy who can eat a planet just has to be taken seriously...
6. Napoleon the Pig (Animal Farm) -- mainly because I'm not a fan of Battlestar...
7. John Doe (Se7en) -- creepy and horrible on a stick...
8. Wile E. Coyote -- at least this one I can take seriously!
9. Lord Voldemort -- Kingpin has a few points, but even he must bow before the Dark Lord
10. Ernst Stavro Blofeld (James Bond) -- I (heart) SMERSH!
11. Sauron (Lord of the Rings) -- rough call, but in the end, once again, I must give it up to the Dark Lord
12. Dr. Fu Manchu -- this guy is the original Evil Mastermind sitting in his web!
13. Pinhead (Hellraiser) -- **shrug** slightly better make up
14. The Master (Dr. Who) -- come on! A suit with an attitude, or a guy who goes back and forth in time destroying civilizations! Gimme a break...
15. Satan (The Exorcist) -- hey, he's been the villain since the beginning, right?
16. Gollum -- Gollum may be ambiguous, but at least I can take him seriously
17. Hal 9000 -- Tony was just so ... predictable. HAL is unnerving!
18. Dracula -- Godzilla is usually a good guy; Drac, now Drac is THE iconic monster! And he's suave and sexy to boot!
19. Khan Noonian Singh -- gargoyles do not task me...
20. Thoth-Amon (Conan Stories) -- slight nudge to Thoth-Amon, but neither is in the big leagues
21. T1000 -- **sigh** both are pathetic as far as villains go...
22. John Powell (Night of the Hunter) -- Don't know Powell, but I loathed The Stand
23. Mr. Burns -- in the Evil Business for five generations!
24. Dorian Gray -- hmmm, a badly written knock-off of a real villain, or a devlishly clever and suave individual with style and great writing? No contest...
25. Bob (Twin Peaks) -- ARGH! NO FAIR! Hyde is the ultimate evil that lurks within even the most saintly of us, while BOB is the vileness beyond our comprehension, lurking just out of reach! On a tough choice, I go with BOB, as he gave me more nightmares
26. Magneto -- a powerful, vengeful, misunderstood and towering individual, or a guy who loses a deathstar to teddy bears? No contest.
27. Anubis (Stargate SG-1) -- suave, sophisticated, delusions of godhood, offhandedly cruel, this guy is a villain's villain
28. Graf Orlock (Nosferatu) -- d' Blut ist d' Liebe
29. Cigarette Smoking Man (X-Files) -- subtle, invoking fear and anger just by sitting there, holding vast amounts of knowledge and quietly taunting his adversaries, CSM is cool
30. Docter Octopus -- especially the lastest one!
31. Darth Vader -- there never should have even been a Borg Queen, while Vader had one of the greatest entrances in all ove cinematic history!
32. Hannibal Lector -- Hannibal would have Thulsa Doom for lunch ... and meat tea ... and supper...
