Gotta go with the original. Jack Nicholson was perfect. And Kubrick could make an empty hallway seem creepy.

I like them both for different reasons. Everyone is gonna say Kubrick because of Jack, but its not exactly a HUGE acting stretch for him to play an insane guy now is it:rolleyes: the 217 lady OWNS in the miniseries, she was just week in the movie....

I cant decide Kubricks The Shining had great acting espcialy from Jack and was overall a great film but Stephen Kings The Shining was more like the book with everything, Jacks past and alcohol problems,more about Tony,more Halloran,the boiler etc.
