There are at least 30 movies based on Stephen King books, maybe a handfull are any good.
(and I'm a King reader, just finished Dome, starting Tommyknockers for first time, Dead Zone next)

Ha changed it from 4 or 5 I see.
Dead Zone
The Shining
Salem's Lot (original)
Shawshank
Green Mile
This Mist ( I liked it, sue me)
Carrie
Creepshow
Creepshow II
Cat's Eye ( I really liked Quitters Inc.)
Stand By Me
The Running Man
It ( Falls apart in the end, but Pennywise is easily one of the scariest tv villains ever)
Misery
1408
I think that is more than a handful or the original 4 or 5 you stated and I am not sure there are any writers that have had as many decent to great movies.
I left off a few that plenty of people liked. I wasn't a big fan of the stand mini.I liked Rose Red, but that one is universally hated so I kept it off the list.

Storm Of The Century (very good mini)

regarding The Stand. Another possibility is taking it the "Harpers Island" route. A 1 season TV series. And i vote for AMC or FX to do this.
