The most frightening movie ever.

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2011)

It has been like 6 years when I watched it just one time, but still thinking of it makes me shiver. Maybe I was too young back then, maybe not but it gave me nightmares for two weeks at least. It is not a typical horror movie, sure there are little ghost girls in the corridors but that wasn't the scariest part, just a start for what it is going to be. I can't praise enough Nicholson's performance on this movie. Usually in this kind of movies I don't even care that much if the "good-ones" survive if it's poorly made, but the Shining really made me squeeze my pillow on the couch and hoping them not to get murdered by the insane father.
The true meaning of horror. I haven't read the book, I don't dare, this was scary enough. Maybe some day.
