The fact that it diverges from the source material is a positive, not a negative. Kubrick was able to create something new, something of his own. He was able to create a horror film that outgrows its "horror" label ad becomes something special, something quite rare coming out of Hollywood. The TV movie gave me nothing new and just bored me like most other horror movies.

Amen.
The TV movie was flat, poorly directed, unintentionally hilarious.
