    The final battle would reveal that Megatron was actually a form of Randell Flagg.

    Honestly, a horror-themed Transformers story, written in the vein of 'Christine', would be great to read/watch.

    Well Scatman Crothers would still voice Jazz.

    Also either Jack Nicholson or Tim Curry as Megatron.

    This.

    And the Tommyknockers would be on the Ark and the cellphone virus was made by Soundwave.


    And Unicron is another form of the Crimson King.

    Well, hopefully we'd get to hear Starscream shout "Scaring the little girl!?!"

    It would be told entirely in first person flashback, nobody could pronounce any of the Transformers names, and it would be really, really racist.

    (I love me some Lovecraft, but the dude makes Michael Bay look like Martin Luther King)

    Lovecraftian Transformers would recast the Quintessons as ancient cosmic horrors, and make the story of Alternity seem like it made perfect sense.

    The Decepticons would all walk around in disguise, but be terrified of cats.

    Optimus would be bats**t crazy and be even more vicious than Michael Bay's Optimus.
    BTW, isn't Maximum Overdrive like Transformers without the robots.

    Hey how can anyone forget the Langoliers,all those little Unicrons devouring the planet like him,and all the usual heroes and villains.I think if King did transformers he would literally scare the crap out of little kids who watched the show where Prime would hit Megs with an axe and his head would fly at you thru the TV screen,I say he** no,kids don't need to see that.

    It'd be boring, lacking literary merit, and still sell far far too much, proving that Americans are stupid and illiterate once again.

    The movies would be about 8 hours long.

    Ravage would be new Cujo...

    The dead characters would not need the Allspark to resurrect them, they would just be buried in the Pet Sematary...

    Arcee would be the new Christine...

    At least one of the robots would be an energon addict or an oil drunk.
