Doctor Sleep, based on Stephen King’s book is out in cinemas now in the UK and US, and here’s Mark Kermode reviewing it for the BBC…

His hope for a peaceful existence soon becomes shattered when he meets Abra, a teen who shares his extrasensory gift of the “shine.” Together, they form an unlikely alliance to battle the True Knot, a cult whose members try to feed off the shine of innocents to become immortal.
