Brilliant
This is one of my all time favourite films, which is also based on a story by my favourite author. Frank Darabont does a great job directing such a fantastic cast, and the story itself is so interesting albeit a little sad towards the end. Character development is one of Stephen King's strengths, and it really shows in this adaptation. This is one of those films that never gets old.
There is a lot of sick and twisted-ness in here which I always love, but it's the story and the great set of characters in this book that really got me into this! There are also added bonuses for Stephen King fans with many subtle references to different books, showing that this story also takes place in his father's universe. PS. Be sure to read "a note on the type" at the end :-)

I'm very disappointed with this! After hearing of it for so long and from a big Stephen King fan, I couldn't believe how poor this is! Looking very dated, thought it was an early 70's film not mid 80's! It's drawn out way too long even at 90mins. It's not scary, just weird. There was a re-make recently not to mention 7 sequels!! Hopefully they are a lot better!

Has got the creepy factor!

I received a copy of the book for Christmas, and it doesn’t disappoint when it comes to the well known creepy factor that Stephen King is known for. Right from the beginning, (if you are well versed with the Shining) you will recognise straight away the ghost that Danny is scared of and think he is just seeing things, until his mum sees the evidence left behind.

I will admit that I saw this movie years ago and only within the past year got around to reading the book. Without giving any spoilers I can safely say the I prefer the ending to Stephen King's book so much more than what the movie offered. As always his books are just the right combination of creepy and realistic to prevent his work from being unbelievable. My all time favorite author.
