Hier der Trailer zu Stephen Kings Shining-Sequel «Doctor Sleep» mit Ewan McGregor als Danny Torrance und Kyliegh Curran als Abra Stone, die im Buch von Rose the Hat gejagt wird, der Anführerin des True Knot, einer Gruppe von Sort-Of-Vampiren, die ihr Leben mit dem Shining toter Kinder verlängern. Ich habe das Buch nicht gelesen und die stärksten Momente des Trailers stammen von Kubrick, ich bin hier eher skeptisch…
“Doctor Sleep” continues the story of Danny Torrance, 40 years after his terrifying stay at the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. Ewan McGregor, Rebecca Ferguson and newcomer Kyliegh Curran star in the supernatural thriller, directed by Mike Flanagan, from his own screenplay based upon the novel by Stephen King.
Still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook, Dan Torrance has fought to find some semblance of peace. But that peace is shattered when he encounters Abra, a courageous teenager with her own powerful extrasensory gift, known as the “shine.” Instinctively recognizing that Dan shares her power, Abra has sought him out, desperate for his help against the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, The True Knot, who feed off the shine of innocents in their quest for immortality.
Forming an unlikely alliance, Dan and Abra engage in a brutal life-or-death battle with Rose. Abra’s innocence and fearless embrace of her shine compel Dan to call upon his own powers as never before—at once facing his fears and reawakening the ghosts of the past.
