Oh yeah, every time I talk about king's IT, I go "It's great except that one scene, right?" and anyone who's read it agrees.

There were some fucked up scenes in the later Dune books too. If they ever make the whole series into movies they will probably have to invent a new way to wake up the repressed memories in Duncan Idaho's young clone.
