This is campy, easy writing at its finest. That's not a good thing. Clegg keeps the pace up in this short novel but really doesn't offer much else. Its not a thinking man's horror novel i.e. most of King's novels. Its a shallow, short, campy story about a bunch of college kids on a trip trough the west. The story doesn't have any beef to it. A good read for a plane ride. Not so good if you want depth.
