| Synopsis |
|
| Both the movie and TV mini-series "The Shining" were based on Stephen King's third novel "The Shining" which was first published by Doubleday as a hardcover book in January 1977.
This second filmed version of Stephen King's best-selling horror novel credits King as the scriptwriter as well. The 4 1/2-hour long made-for-TV epic takes a more subtle approach to the horror and spends more time on the human elements than the now legendary Stanley Kubrick predecessor.
