Outtakes of the shots of the Volkswagen Beetle travelling towards the Overlook Hotel at the start of the film were later used by Ridley Scott when he was forced by Warner Bros. to add a "happy ending" to the original release of Blade Runner (1982). Stanley Kubrick, who was a fan of Scott's previous film Alien (1979), happily gifted the footage, under the condition that only shots were used that haven't been used in The Shining. This was no problem, as enough unused footage of the scene was available.
