1. The Shining (1980)
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Stanley Kubrick — director of such classics as 2001: A Space Odyssey and A Clockwork Orange — may not have been the first person you would have expected to adapt a Stephen King property. But, hoo boy, are we glad that he did. Funny thing is, Stephen King has publicly stated he wasn’t a fan of this version of his work. We’re going to say that’s King’s problem for now, because The Shining is topping this list because of how effective of a movie it is. The shot of the twins in the hallway alone is enough to put it at number one.
That’s our list, and we’re sticking to it. Let us know what you agree with and disagree with, as well as what you’re favorite Stephen King adaptation is, in the comments below.
