Originally aired as a television mini-series, this all-star filmization of Stephen King's gripping epic of good versus evil chronicles the episodic adventures of a disparate group of people who struggle to reestablish civilization after a man-made catastrophe wipes out most of the world's population. The world abruptly ends when a deadly virus accidentally escapes from a government sponsored biological warfare laboratory. Soon people are dropping like flies from the plague, but a few survive and find themselves strangely compelled to head into the West. Good-hearted people follow the voice of an ancient black woman and head for Boulder, Colorado. Bad people follow the enigmatic Walkin' Dude to Las Vegas. It is only a matter of time before the two sides are forced into a climactic battle over the final fate of humanity. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

    A lot of King's movies from his books sometimes come on screen so-so. However, this one, The Stand was by far the best ever adapted to a movie - and by far still is the best!

    As I was watching this film, I didn't even realize how long it was. If you are a Stephen King fan, I reccomend this film.

    The continuation of a richly done peace of art. An odd sense of justice is felt with the conclusion of the conflicts.
