"HEEEEEEEERE'S JOHNNY!!"

Rating: Null/10 (2 March 2002)

The Shining is the greatest horror movie ever made, period. In a genre plagued with lackluster directors, corny scripts and horrible actors, The Shining stands out as an absolute gem. Anyone who saw One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest must see this- Jack Nicholson looks even crazier here. And unlike many horror movies, this is genuinely scary. Stanley Kubrick plays on the viewer's emotions ruthlessly until one is ready to scream out loud. I am 17 and I still freak out watching it alone. The Shining is by far one of Kubrick's greatest films, and a must for anyone who calls himself a horror fan.
