Years following the events of "The Shining," a now-adult Dan Torrance meets a young girl with similar powers as he tries to protect her from a cult known as The True Knot who prey on children with powers to remain immortal.
A decades-down-the-road sequel catches up with Danny Torrance, the psychic boy who endured horrific trauma in "The Shining," in a most satisfying manner. Ewan McGregor is brilliant as grown-up, alcoholic Danny, coming to the aid of a similarly gifted girl (Kyliegh Curran, spectacularly good) in peril. - Three stars
