“Well you wanted to get married”
I agree off was a great movie. Might be a sleeper hit. Pardon the pun.Finished Doctor Sleep.
That Doc Sleep and Abra Cadabra duo was poppin!
Yeah. I liked this.
Lil Stepford Cuckoo shorty aint have to do Esco like that.
Might be one of my favorite fliks i seen this year.
They somehow managed to recreate some og Shining parts without the shyt looking all bootleg. Felt the creepy factor.
Lil shorty and McGregor was a dope combo.

Doctor Sleep was absolute flames for me. As a the Shining stan, I felt like it was a worthy follow-up even though it had a different vibe and style for the vast majority of the movie. It still worked and did so really effectively with that last act being rewarding as all hell.
You know what i loved about this film the most?
is Abra was so powerful but vulnerable enoughto need Dans help.
And not even on no "white savior" shyt. In the process of helping her, he had to figure out how to work his own skills. THAT was ill to me. Cause SHE brought the best outa HIM!

I feel like doc sleep is gonna be one of those classics that bombed it the box office but everyone gradually realized how dope it was and it ends up being hugely profitable. Didn’t know that was possible for a major theater release in the social media era.
This was the Star Wars movie we deserved.
Word. I don’t even like romantic/ drama movies as a genre and I watched the whole thing off the strength of @semicko82 ‘s original post about it. Movie was thought provoking and engaging. Good movie.I have fulfilled my 1 dram-rom quota per year. I don’t appreciate a movie that brings tears to my eyes and makes me feel all relationshippy insideGood movie!
I rather see a good haunting, torture, psychological manipulation, possession, paranormal, slashing - hmmm, I wonder if there is a coorelation
@cac poster its official, Dr. Sleep is in my number 1 spot!!! That movie was executed to perfection - consistent timeline, story line, plot, no overdone jump scares. That little girl hit the mark with her role. Wowwwww, she was really good. Perfect on screen chemistry and believable. Best movie I’ve seen all year, no debate.
Disliked that they did his friend like that though!!! For him to go out like he did after they located the Steamers. The child abduction scene was hard to watch. They could have scaled that back. I have a son maynnnneeee
I had to fast forward that scene, never seen a kid done so graphically , that will stay in my head. Sadistic . Other than that, excellent movie. I know I need to rewatch bc I’m sure that I missed a few subtle references.

in the book, billy doesn’t die, and he actually helps out dan and abra in the final fight so that shyt TOTALLY took me off guard
I would say this was the movie of the year for me but not as a horror. It felt more like Dark Fantasy.@cac poster its official, Dr. Sleep is in my number 1 spot!!!

I LOVED how they played out the dynamic between the two. I'm curious if any book readers can speak on how their interactions were covered in the early portion of the book. I'd be curious if his recovery from addiction and her presence as a support from afar got explored at all...
Also, the way that little girl played the possession scene was great. I feel like child actors have gotten better this era.
Much like the original shining
We forget this or don’t know it, but the original shining was a critical and financial failure when it dropped. Took a few years for people to see what was really there
