It depends on which one you're talking about. The remake was terrible!!
The hotel explodes at the end, and the kid graduates. WTF?!?
One of the worst remakes I've ever seen. If I'm not mistaken, it was made for TV.

I'm not sure I've ever seen any of them - and I'm not sure why the choice is made up of three Stephen King's and Clockwork Orange. Wouldn't a "best adaptation of a Stephen King novel" poll have made more sense? For the record, my vote for that would go to Salem's Lot, which I still consider to be one the scariest films I've ever seen.

I found it scary too!
Did you know that F.W. Murnau's Nosferatu (1922), was copied by Werner Herzog in his 1979 remake and by Tobe Hooper for his telefilm of Stephen King's SALEM'S LOT that same year?

clockwork orange !!!!anybody watch DR. STRANGELOVE

Hip Priest 09.12.2006 06:05 AM

Not keen on anything Steven Kingy, so it's Clockwork Orange for me.

Anthony Burgess was a fantastic novelist.

theres a remake for the shining. my god,......

Clockwork Orange is way too overhyped for me, so i went with the Shining. Haven't seen the other two

pokkeherrie 09.12.2006 11:18 AM

i thought stephen king was actually involved in the remake of the shining because he didn't like the way kubrick adapted it to screen?

anyway, i'm not really a stephen king fan, so i've only seen kubrick's version.

For true yo!

I'm not a Stephen King fan. Fact, I'm a Stephen King hater. But I love Kubrick's work. It's a close call between Clockwork and Shining, but Shining gets my vote based on the performances (Jack and Shelly are phenomenal in this) and I think it's a touch subtler and finer than Clockwork overall.

EMMAh 09.12.2006 02:01 PM

The only movie I've seen out of those is The Shining, and I've only ever seen half so I'm not gonna vote.
