Review of The Shining (1980) by Ydnar4 — 19 Jul 2015
I watched The Shining after I had already read the book and I don't think I appreciated the film as much because it does take a bit of a turn from the book. I don't really find the film that scary, the most terrifying part about the film is the way it is shot.
That hotel could not be more scary and I love the way it was captured and it might be one of the most beautiful looking films ever. Jack Nicholson is amazing and not much more can be said about that performance and it seems like he was born to play it.
