Stephen King's The Shining (1997).
Actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I still prefer the style and production of the first one, though. Both recommended.

Wow, didn't even know this was a thing!! Will check it out, thanks.
Just watched the Jack Nicholson film!
Starts off very strong but from many rewatches now it’s a little slow for my tastes and I spent most of my time waiting for ‘the good bits’ - there is LOT in between. Also it’s actually quite anticlimactic. The best bit is the axe/door scene and it goes on for quite some time afterwards.
Jack Nicholson is great of course although he does get zany far quicker than I remembered.
The resolution of the cook’s storyline is, admittedly, just a bit annoying. Again, a lot of ‘waiting’ for the ‘payoff’.
Kinda interesting that it wasn’t as compelling as I remembered.
7/10
I think another version was made because, IIRC, King never liked the original.
Oh man, again people watching things on here that I go to watch!Put on Murder Mystery a Netflix original whilst ironing, what a heap of **** it did not have a single redeeming quality. 1/10.

Just finished watching this and loved it. I always like Adam Sandler films. Just goofy and irrelevant. Enjoyed it more than the Shining actually
