Hmm, I *do* recall having seen the movie version of "The Body" once, but it must have been years even before I read that short story... Can't really recall the name of the movie anymore, but I believe it wasn't such a bad film. Of course, there wasn't much of the really wacky Stephen King stuff going on in it...

I think the film version was called 'Stand By Me'. This caused me loads of problems because I saw the film first and then went looking for the book (a friend who's quite mad about Stephen King helped me out in the end).
