Amazing quote. Can you share a link to the article, if it exists?

  I clipped it years ago but found it again here with google: https://sites.google.com/site/cultoddities/home/carrie/carrie-1976/carrie-76-press/stephen-king-american-film-interview https://sites.google.com/site/cultoddities/home/carrie/carri... Aaaand... there's actually a much more relevant set of quotes about The Shining, like: There's a lot to like about it. But it's a great big beautiful Cadillac with no motor inside. You can sit in it, you can enjoy the smell of the leather upholstery -- the only thing you can't do is drive it anywhere. So I would do everything different. The real problem is that Kubrick set out to make a horror picture with no apparent understanding of the genre. Everything about it screams that from the beginning to the end, from plot decisions to that final scene -- which has been used before on "The Twilight Zone."
