i went to see 'Dusk to Dawn' with a bunch of friends while stoned when it first came out.
none of us had seen any trailers for it and we just presumed it was a tarantino styled road-movie.
*just imagine a bunch of 5 guys sitting in the front row of the cinema and absolutely shitting-it when bloody vampires appear :P *

Does this Documentary completely forget it was written by Steven King?... I've been digging around on the web and there's a lot of back and forth as to which version of the film The Shining is 'better' (King did a miniseries w/Brian Hacket (Steven Weber) in the late 90's that was pretty lame)...
... I'm just confused that this film only seems to get hung up on Kubrick... ... it's not like he wrote the original novel... he may have had his 'director's vision'... ... but in the end I'd think folks would be searching for meaning in King's original words more than a director's adaptation of something that didn't originate with him... ?

I think the point of fascination with the Kubrick work is that he took a fairly standard story and instead of making film of it, he stripped it out and used it as a vehicle to carry a hidden 'other' story. Its the hidden other story that people are fascinated by, not the fact that its The Shining as Stephen King wrote it.
That documentary series seemed to me to present a bunch of fairly lame top level conspiracy style bits of fluff. The whole thing about the guy getting up from behind his desk for example, and appearing to have a huge erction when he shakes Jack Nicholson's hand... that's a load of shit. That guy makes a HUGE deal about how Kubrick must have spent ages getting the props make exactly right for that effect, and then uses that to pin up a potential hidden message about something else. Utter crap. Total coincidence that (to that one guy only) the desk tidy looked a tiny little bit like it might be an enormous horizontal totally rectangular phallus.
But... there is definitely some hidden stories int he film, and there's a lot more interesting speculation to be had on the internet that goes a lot deeper and into more compelling ideas than most of what that documentary says.
The Apollo moonlanding angle to it though. That's a pretty amazing theory.
