Yes there is and its one that no one probably mentioned....The Entity. Its based on a true story and scary enough to paralyze someone.:D

I have never found anything particularly scary about The Shinning, I don’t even think it’s a very good film, the performances are great, but the film itself is very overrated IMO.

I loved the Shining, it had a more psychological scariness to it.

Thats like comapring China Beach to Full Metal Jacket

"Well, they're both about vietnam..."

yuo got to take the good from both movies. If you love the movie more then its all about kubrik but if you love the book then the made for tv was closer to the works of stephen king. was the shining the only stephen king movie where he didn't have a cameo?

No. You have to realize The Shining, made for TV , was just absolute garbage. I read the book, saw the Kubrick movie..and loved them both. Sadly, when Mr. King sets about trying to prove himself as a screenwriter or director....he just sucks gonads. The made for TV Shining is so inferior to Kubricks, I can't see how anyone who considers themselves a horror fan can even stomach watching it.
