Stephen Kings The Stand.

A gripping post apocalyptic horror story based on the 1978 novel, with a strong cast

(including Rob Lowe in a particularly compelling performance as a deaf man). It

portrays the battle between good and evil in an America that has been decimated by a

virulent plague, killing all but a handful of people. King conjured up monster

ratings with `The Stand,' along with an Outstanding Miniseries Emmy nomination.



The Stand Part 1 The Plague.

When a deadly virus escapes from a government research facility, few prove to be

immune to its effects. With symptoms similar to the flu, those who come into contact

with it quickly die. One survivor is Stu Redmond, a gas station attendant from

Texas, who suffers no ill effects whatsoever. Kept in a medical research facility in

Vermont, doctors try to determine why he is still alive. Others that also survive

include Frannie Goldsmith who lives with her dad; Nick Andros, a deaf-mute; a rock

musician, Larry Underwood; and Lloyd Henreid, in jail for murder. Survivors

Survivors begin to have dreams, either about an old Afican-American woman, Mother

Abigail, or a much scarier evil man.
