To be fair The Shining is perhaps more a work of Stanley Kubrick while The Dark Half was a collaboration with George A. Romero. According to legend, Romero had a lot of conflict on the set with star Timothy Hutton. To be fair – Hutton puts on a tour de force performance in the dual role of George Stark and Thad Beaumont.
