Endless dialog from C level actors with little to no tension or suspense. It's what you might think you would get from a made for TV version of a King novel.

Just think of all the other King novels that were made for TV (IT, The Stand, The Tommyknockers, et. al.) and you get the idea.

Yeah yikes, not too good on that. Maybe, sometime in the off-season if I have time, but this time of year much better horror movies will be a better way to spend time.

You're better off watching Plan 9 From Outer Space or Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

The made for TV version of The Shinning, and all the other King novels that were turned into multi-part TV specials, is absolute and total garbage.

You want some scary movies? Try any of the VHS movies (the second is the scariest in my opinion) or the J-horror movie The Audition.

I think the first VHS was far and away the best one. The second one is fairly decent and the third one is the worst of the trio but still fun to watch.

The second V/H/S's last story was by far one of the scariest things I have watched in my life. Not only tense and scary but disturbing and horrifying.
