It’s common knowledge on here what I feel about the Shining (film), while I love it as a horror film, until Cell came out I considered it the worst SK adaptation. Dem’s review perfectly hits the nail on the head (with a croquet mallet
) with everything that is wrong with it from an adaptation POV.
Also, like Justin says, the TV series is more faithful to the source material, even if it too has its flaws, but it’s definitely worth a watch, I rewatched it a couple of months ago after watching the US cut of Kubricks film a few days earlier.
