Well, we'll always have 'Creepshow.'

The Big Picture George A. Romero and Stephen King worked together on multiple projects that were either canceled or successfully came to fruition, but the most unfortunate loss of them all is their long-gestating adaptation of The Stand. This epic is not only King's longest novel , it would have provided the groundwork for what might have been Romero's biggest film ever.

Why Was George Romero's 'The Stand' Canceled? Romero and King began working together on their adaptation soon after Dawn of the Dead premiered in the late '70s. Their first few meetings made it clear that the two had a promising partnership on the way, so they moved forward with hopes of adapting this beast of a novel. After years of work, the pair ended up with a script that was around 200 pages long.

Some of these different projects were still collaborative, though. Romero and King did come back together again in the early '80s for their horror anthology, Creepshow. This movie is a whole lot of fun, with a handful of shorts told in the vein of classic horror comics. The cast bears people like Leslie Nielsen, Ed Harris, and Adrienne Barbeau, and even has King himself playing the lead role in one of the shorts. Man, Creepshow rocks.
