Stephen King had an a-mah-zing 2017, and this year sees the debut of a new King shared universe series on Hulu from J.J. Abrams (“Castle Rock”) along with a slew of other King adaptations in development. So we’re ranking all of the theatrical movies based on his work. A couple of notes: We aren’t ranking the sequels based on “Children of the Corn,” since many were direct-to-home-video affairs, or the Hindi film “No Smoking” (based on a segment of “Cat’s Eyes”) because I couldn’t find it.

“Tales from the Darkside: The Movie” has been excluded because only one segment is based on a King tale, and none of his TV projects (of which there are many) are included here.
