I agree that the ending, and maybe even the movie as a whole, is a little disappointing compared to the novel. Kubrick has a tendency to do his own thing and use the book as a starting point (he excised the entire last chapter of "A Clockwork Orange" and actually improved on the book IMO), but regardless, he makes his own work of art that is independent of the "inspiration" when he makes a film. It's funny that two of his films have already been mentioned in this thread. I agree that 2001 makes no sense at the end The Shining is by far and away the scariest book I've ever read and my favorite novel by Stephen King
