Not my favorite Stephen King collection of stories. They were well narrated and they're all ok...none I dislike...just none that really make me go wow. I actually like the movie versions of Sometimes They Come Back, Quitters Inc, and the Ledge better than their written versions. But these kept me entertained this morning so they served their purpose.

WHY would you name this collection after the worst (by far) story?? The others were fairly standard horror fare but I cannot even begin to think about that lawnmower man.

While I love Quitters, Inc., The Ledge, and Sometimes They Come Back, unfortunately I have never been a fan of The Lawnmower Man or The Mangler. The narration, however, was fantastic.
