Jessica Huang from Fresh off the Boat TV series, said this in response to Honey quoting the movie. I totally feel the same way.

I recently read The Shining for the first time, having seen the movie a few times.
Yeah, I get why King was pissy. Look how Kubrick massacred his boy.
King did a good job of massacring his own boy when he tried to make a film adaptation of the book. To some extent I think that justifies Kubrick’s creative changes.
Agree that the book itself is excellent - and much scarier than the Kubrick movie btw. It’s just that some aspects of it that are the most chilling seem reliant on the medium of it being a novel.
