One of the Greatest Horror Movies Out There

Rating: 10/10 (25 April 2002)

The Shining is one of the greatest horror movies out there. Based on the novel of Stephen King, The Shining which was directed by Stanley Kubrick had a great plot, essentially great actors, and great music. What I really liked about this kind of horror movie was that it was a psychological horror about the supernatural and the paranormal. This movie had blood (especially the elevator scene) but it did not have any gore or guts spewing around, which is a good thing. This movie also had many of todays memorable quotes from "Redrum" to "Here's Johnny" (in a twisted way). All and all, The Shining is one of the greatest horror movies in the 20th century.
