    I've read The Shining back a few years back and it was terrifying. I find the movie more disturbing and creepy though.

    The Shining is absolutely amazing! While the Kubrick film is a classic, to me it pales in comparison to the book, which is simply bone-chilling.

    I can't stand the Kubrick film. Who didn't want to kill Wendy?

    Totally missed the point of the book.

    I liked the second adaption from the 90´s. The moving hedges that were shaped as animals. So great. It was much closer to the book. I watched this one after I finished the book.
