If you're Stephen King reading the internet this morning, this would make you put your boot through the computer screen:

King doesn't like the movie version of his book. Really doesn't like it. Pity for those who like both, and wish these crazy kids would kiss and make up over it. But that still doesn't mean you have to rub King's nose in it, do you? The "Heeeeeere's Johnny" reference was made up on the set by Nicholson. So the article is using a line King didn't write in a movie he didn't like to set up a story about a book with a character from "The Shining." Okay.

Leaving aside that the movie version was really Kubrick's apology for helping to fake the moon landing - yes, that's one theory, popular with people who also believe in lizards that live underground and control humanity - there's the theory about the movie's impossible architecture:

By using impossible architecture, the movie disorients the viewer, increases the sense of dread and fear. Kubrick was brilliant, but how much of this could simply be chalked up to shooting in different locations or coming out a different door and hoping the audience didn't notice? If I recall my initial impressions of the movie, the sense of disorientation came not from the architecture, but things like half-second shots of creepy twins, or rotten old dead ladies coming out of the bathtub. Stuff like that. But it's a fascinating take on the movie. The second part is here.

See what happened? Started talking about King, ended up talking about Kubrick. Happens all the time with this book.
