Stephen King's The Shining (DVD 2003)

fantastic a must see movie recommended this is a story about a boy with a special forsight the shinning which he doesnt choose to use and sees whats going to happen in the future

I couldn't watch it alone,more literal than it's predecessor and by far my favourite. It left me spooked for days after watching it.

Far superior to the movie. For people who have read the book it is a really good adaptation. Watch out for Stephen King's cameo as the band leader.

From start to finish this production of the shining provides quality entertainment, largly due to the fact that, unlike its film counterpart, it adheres closley to the book from which it gets its name.
Stanley Kubricks adaptation of the popular novel, the shining, from the popular author, Stephen King, was severly lacking in content from the book, lacking in a good all round cast and so lacking in the entertainment that it offered. This tv series adaption sticks closly to the book, leaving in all the gloriouse 'chlls and thrills' and uses a great cast who fit pefectly into their roles as Jack, (played by Steven Weber), the father who slowly breaks down under the evil force of the hotel, Wendy, (played by Rebecca de Mornay) as the storng wife who is feircly protective of her son and Danny, (played by Courtland Mead), the son with the 'shining' who is the goal of the hotel, but also the one most aware of its horrifing past.
This is a product for any true fan of Stephen King, horror films or even just classic moments in tv history.

I bought this as it was a good price, it came really quick and the communication was good. i would recommend this ebayer.
