Doctor Sleep (2019)

STEPHEN KING'S DOCTOR SLEEP - Final Trailer [HD]

One of the most slept-on horror movies of the past 10 years, Doctor Sleepis a sequel toThe Shiningthat manages to honor both Stanley Kubrick’s original movie and the Stephen King novel it’s based on. The film follows the first film’s Danny, who is now an adult and trying to ignore the trauma of his past.

After he forms a psychic connection with a young girl, though, the two of them must work together to take down an ancient enemy with similar powers. Director Mike Flanagan gets plenty of chills out of this premise, and Ewan McGregor and especially Rebecca Ferguson are excellent in roles that demand a lot of each of them.
