I'll have to rent it. Does it follow the book closely? I hate movies that stray too much.
Yes. Stephen King directed it himself, so he did it right. Wendy was made to be MUCH stronger than she originally was, and its just all around a better movie. And its 6 hours long, so they didnt really need to cut anything out either. It's much better IMO.

And Wendy in Stanley Kubrik's version, OH MY GOD, that scene with the bat as she slowly walked up the stairs, OH I wanted to SHOOT that scene.
