Yes, it truly seems like everyone is cleaning out their vaults and jumping in on the action, including Warner Bros.! Just in time for our favorite holiday, WB is finally getting around to releasing a few sought after titles on DVD & Blu-ray! Most notably, they've just released three films adapted from the works of Stephen King, namely SALEM'S LOT (completely uncut!), CAT'S EYE, and STEPHEN KING'S IT!
These discs are currently available at Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Diabolik DVD, and various other stores. (But not Amazon... yet!) At roughly ten bucks apiece, it's a no-brainer to consider these titles for your personal collections!
Film Synopsis: A wandering supernatural feline’s adventures provide the linking story for Stephen King’s CAT'S EYE, a dead-on thrillogy scripted by King and directed by Lewis Teague (CUJO).
The staff at Quitters Inc. promises to help nicotine fiend Dick Morrison (James Woods) kick the habit. Next, a luckless gambler (Robert Hays) is forced into a bet involving a stroll around a building – on the five-inch ledge encircling the 30th floor.
Finally, our wayfarer kitty rescues a schoolgirl (Drew Barrymore) from a vile, doll-sized troll! And be sure to keep an eye out for cameos by Cujo and Christine!

Film Synopsis: IT can be anything. A fanged monster that won't stay on the movie screen. Something ominous lurking in the basement. No matter what your biggest fear is, no one knows IT better than Stephen King.
Based on the King Of Horror's 1986 bestseller, IT is a jittery, jolting excursion into personal fear. A malevolent force in a small New England town takes the shape of a clown named Pennywise (Tim Curry), but he's not clowning around!
Instead, he terrifies youngsters and brings some to their untimely doom - until some wily kids fight back. The evil resurfaces 30 years later: meaner, angrier, deadlier. And friends who vividly remember youthful terrors reunite to fight IT.
