3. Spooks And Creeps (2004)
Spooks And Creepsis an anthology of revulsion - themed shorts , but despite plaster Ewan McGregor and Alice Cooper on the front cover , both only look concisely . McGregor ’s short is the dialogue - detached " sweet , " where his character saunter along an empty beach to notice a tasty eclair has been left on a plate . " Desserts " is the definition of a short but it has a memorable , blacky amusing end and isSpooks And Creepshighlight . Sadly , the other films are a mixed bag , and whileTimothy Olyphant ’s - who hat making 2007’sHitman- " Doppelganger " is also challenging , overall it ’s a skippable compilation .

On the airfoil , Nightwatchseems like a lose gem . In addition to being a rare Ewan McGregor horror flick , it co - stars actors like Josh Brolin , Patricia Arquette and Nick Nolte , and is a remake of an acclaimed Danish thriller that gave Nikolaj Coster - Waldau one of his first big use . However , whileNightwatchhas bags of atm and a few unanimous panic attack , it ’s often too silly for its own trade good . McGregor himself has sundry feelings about the last product , and fault manufacturer Harvey Weinstein for forcing reshoots that bit by bit made the movie blander and watering down the intensity .
1. Doctor Sleep (2019)
Ewan McGregor’sDoctor Sleepis something of a minor miracle . It care to merge Stephen King’sThe Shiningnovel together withStanley Kubrick ’s movie adaptation - which the writer splendidly hated- while making an emotionally resonant sequel . McGregor is peachy as the grown - up Danny Torrance , but the MVP is Rebecca Ferguson as villain Rose the Hat . It also features some visceral scenes of horror - including a harrowing kid murder - and even with the goodly runtime , it rarely sags . Oddly , what should be the highlight - the climactic coming back to the abandoned Overlook Hotel - might beDoctor Sleep’sweakest section , as it spoil in fan service and easter eggs a petty too much .
