This isn't going to get the most gory movie award ever, but it does have some blood and gore in it. Granted I never saw the unrated version though. This is another of King's short stories that were changed around a bit to make a feature film. The story was about a press that through a series of accidents becomes possessed by a demon. Two guys figure this out and try and perform an exorcism on it, but ultimately fail. The press comes to life...the end. Here there are other factors. One of the main changes or additions added is the Robert Englund character as the sort of villain. I am guessing the person who adapted the screenplay figured you couldn't use an inanimate object as your lead villain. So the series of accidents from the short story are no accident here. A bunch of conspiracy stuff is included as well as a haunted refrigerator. Though that may have been in the story as well. This movie has its moments for me and I certainly would not put it in my bottom one hundred movies of all time, but I also do not question those that do. If you want to watch a horror movie late at night and you don't care about the quality then this one fits the bill quite nicely. Otherwise, you should probably listen to all the other reviewers who say stay away.
