Stephen King is a freaking icon. I didn't get to see that special and I imagine it sucks balls. However, books sometimes just don't translate well to film. The writer can only do so much. You said you wanted to see something by Dean Koontz. Well, he wrote Phantoms, which was made into a movie and the movie sucked balls. I mean, sure Ben Affleck was the bomb in it (joke), but the movie sucked horribly. Look at the stuff Stephen King has done that was good. He has done far more good than bad.
Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, Stand By Me, Hearts in Atlantis, the Green Mile, etc. to name some good things based on Stephen King stories. Oh, and none of those stories had to do with a Devil terrifying a town.
