Trying to identify a tv show/movie

[King Ellis]

I can recall seeing a show/movie when I was a kid but I can't remember what the hell it was called. I think it was a movie but i'm sure when I saw it it was shown in two halves over two nights on the BBC. Apologies for the upcoming vauge description but it's been a while. Anyway all I can remember is a bunch of people having visions of an old woman and they were all travelling to get to her. One vision in particular involved a guy outside her house, in some corn fields possibly and she was on her porch in a rocking chair.

If anyone could tell me what this was then that would be awesome. :thumbsup:

I do believe you are describing Steven King's "The Stand"...a multi-part made for TV movie.

yep that is definately Stephen King's "The Stand" it was a made for tv movie... probably one of the best book to movie based off one of his books.

You can buy it on DVD if you can find it... i know you can get it off Amazon for sure.

Thaks guys. I had a instinct it was Stephen King but i'm not familiar with his work so I couldn't be sure. I'll have to track this down.

Ummm...is it just me or am I the only person to realize that "The Stand" was just about the worst movie ever? The book was awesome and then they have to go and butcher it with that movie.

Fuck I'd take 'Hearts in Atlantis' over 'The Stand.' The Stand seemed to lose the palpable sense of urgency that was in the book.
