...but Steven King books are always better than the movie. 
Christine/Carrie/Cujo are all in the same ballpark, I'd give them 3/5 stars. There are a LOT of stinkers.
The original Pet Sematary is probably the best all-around film adaptation.
The Shining is a masterpiece, but Kubrick took a LOT of liberties. It is not faithful to the book.
The original IT miniseries was quite good, I didn't see the need to reboot it. The Stand miniseries was good, but I didn't read the book and was a bit lost.
Creepshow really worked on film. The episodic reboot of that is pretty weak.
