Stephen King’s Storm of the Century (1999) Revisited – Horror Movie Review

A new episode of the Revisited video series has just been released, and while all of the previous entries have been a look back at feature films, this episode does something a little different. This one is looking back at the three-part mini-series Storm of the Century (pick up a copy HERE), which aired on ABC back in February of 1999. To find out all about Storm of the Century, check out the video embedded above.

The mini-series was written by Stephen King, and this wasn’t an adaptation of any of King’s previous works. He wrote this one specifically to be a TV mini-series. Directed by Craig R. Baxley, the mini-series has the following synopsis:

A dangerous blizzard hits an isolated town and brings along a mysterious stranger intent on terrorizing people for his own desires.

Tim Daly, Debrah Farentino, Dyllan Christopher, Colm Feore, Jeffrey DeMunn, Nada Despotovich, Spencer Breslin, Denis Forest, Nicky Guadagni, Julianne Nicholson, Casey Siemaszko, Soo Garay, and Skye McCole Bartusiak star.

The Storm of the Century episode of Revisited was Written, Narrated, and Edited by Lance Vlcek, Produced by Tyler Nichols and John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

Several series on the JoBlo Horror Originals YouTube channel have been released under the Revisited banner in the past. (Episodes of Best Horror Movie You Never Saw, The Black Sheep, Deconstructing, Horror Party Movies, Best Foreign Horror Movies, Playing with Fear, and Real Slashers have all been labeled Revisited on YouTube.)
