King made the TV movie because he was upset by Kubrick's version...

But King needs to let it go. Sometimes a book needs to be changed for the big screen. And Kubrick's version is simply better suited to the big screen. It's not without flaws but it certainly has mood and chills and isn't that ultimately the point of a horror film? Isolation, a damsel in distress, a spooky semi-possessed kid, err three is you count the eerie twins, and Jack Nicholson as an axe wielding madman - what's not to like?
