Stephen Kings Desperation

Nevada highway. August dusk. A blood-flecked badge. A novelist, a family, other strays—detained by a possessed small-town cop. Imprisoned, they discover the town's terrible secret and reckon with an implacable evil. A disposable Stephen King adaptation, from his blockbuster period.
