A more book accurate Jurassic Park and Lost World would be a lot of fun

Some good suggestions on here already.

I'd also add In the Lake of the Woods. I would cast Edward Norton and and Marisa Tomei in the lead roles.

Either The Yattering and Jack or Sex, Death and Starshine from the Books of Blood by Clive Barker. It is my very favorite book of short stories and I always thought that those two in particular would make excellent films. Theyve already made a few of those stories into movies (Candyman, Dread etc).

For the longest time my answer would have been The Long Walk by Stephen King, because that was mine and my dads favorite. When I was 14 he recommended that to me and said he always wanted to see it made into a movie. But it is in theaters now! He passed away in January so he wont get to see it, but Im going to hopefully go on Friday for his birthday in his honor. I am kind of sad that he wont get to see it, but I have decided to quit thinking about shit like that.

I remember in the JP book, there was a part where the two kids were running away from the T-Rex, and they ran into a small cave that was behind a waterfall or something. The T-Rex was too big to reach them, but the cave was just big enough for it to stick its mouth into. So it opened its mouth, and extended its tongue like a chameleon, and started wrapping its tongue around the boy in attempt to pull him into its mouth.

Idk I feel like that would look so odd in live action lol
