Mike Flanagan

Let him do it, Lucasfilm.

The man behind ‘The Haunting of Hill House’ told us about how he adapted a Stephen King novel and a Stanley Kubrick movie at the same time.

Both Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick fans should be happy with Mike Flanagan’s adaptation.

Side by side, they are almost identical.

Ewan McGregor stars as the grown up Danny Torrance in the new film based on the Stephen King book.

After terrifying audiences with last year’s Gerald’s Game, filmmaker Mike Flanagan has returned to Netflix for another horror adaptation starring Carla Gugino. The first trailer for The Haunting of Hill House has arrived, teasing Flanagan’s new series based on the beloved Shirley Jackson story of the same name. In addition to looking spooky AF, the series looks like a real bummer — but like, in a good way.

The actor will play the adult version of the kiddo ‘The Shining’ in the new horror sequel from the director of ‘Gerald’s Game’ and ‘Oculus.’

If anyone can turn Stephen King’s disappointing sequel to The Shining into a decent movie, it’s the director of last year’s surprisingly great Gerald’s Game.

Mike Flanagan, the director behind Netflix’s ‘Gerald’s Game,’ isn’t done with Stephen King yet, and is down to tackle a sequel to ‘The Shining.’

It’s been a few days since Gerald’s Game hit Netflix, and if you’re reading this, that means you managed to avoid sustaining a severe injury from all the squirming and cringing you did during That Scene. Congrats! However, said squirming may have distracted you from a few interesting Easter eggs in Mike Flanagan’s surprisingly effective adaptation of Stephen King’s most seemingly unfilmable novel. Not only did Flanagan manage to sneak in a couple of references for hardcore King fans, but he also tossed in a couple from his own tales of terror.
