Man, this movie was a disappointment.

Aside from John Lithgow being fantastic as always, this was a poorly executed film. I have to assume something happened in the editing room, too many cooks in the kitchen maybe.

There are hints of a competent movie here, great lighting, some awesome cinematography here and there, but man, the pacing is all over the place. Too fast in all the wrong places, too slow in all the wrong places, zero tension. The novel was barely even adapted. It honestly feels like 2% of the book.

Probably the biggest letdown (in horror) for me in years. I can't believe they made an inferior film 30 years after the original one. The original is still brilliant and untouchable, in my opinion.
