Am I the only one that really dislikes the first Shining movie. I think it completely missed the point of the book.
I agree with both comments. The first movie was just off. Olive Oil as Wendy? I can't imagine a less sexy woman. Jack's internal struggle is glossed over. The twin girls??? And river of blood??? The second one was better, but still not great. The Shining is a really psychological book and it is very difficult to express that in a movie or show. How do you visualize someone's internal struggles? And the utter seperation of a group of people from the external world. Still one of my favorite books.
