Doctor Sleep

2019 Mike Flanagan 152 MIN

Still scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook Hotel, Dan Torrance faces the ghosts of the past when he meets Abra, a courageous teen who desperately needs his help -- and who possesses a powerful extrasensory ability called the "shine".

HORROR CENTRALITY
84 /100

Doctor Sleep centers on supernatural threats, dread, and fear-driven suspense (the True Knot, haunted Overlook imagery, psychic peril). While it includes character drama, the horror core is essential to its identity; removing horror would significantly alter the viewing experience.
