Phantoms

This is another long-time-later reread for me. It has some great scares and made me think twice about turning off my reading light, but it doesn't have the kick of Midnight or the cleverness of Watchers. Still worth a read for the few pants-crapping moments and well written gory detail.

Great reading. Seriously. Trust me. Really.

You must read Midnight and tell me what you think of it...!!! Though it looks like you didn't enjoy Watchers as much as me... Midnight is much closer to Phantoms so you might get on better with it.

I'm going to investigate both of these things. A film would be great but I doubt it could do justice to the sheer brilliance of the book. I must read it again. I've talked myself into it.
I did enjoy watchers I just thought it ended quick , I got emotionally attached to that Dog LOL :)

The trailer for the movie i watched with my eldest recently, she has a thing for Corey Haim haha😁"
You are the best...that film looks like the kind of terrible/funny/brilliant thing I like to watch!! 😂
