Very creepy.

Rating: 8/10 (8 October 2007)

After watching The Shining, it's hard to determine whether Jack Nicholson was just acting or if he really went crazy. His roll as Jack Torrance is one of the most convincing performances I have ever seen, and I give him major props.. And a lot of people who haven't seen the movie think it's all about Jack Nicholson breaking through a door and saying "here's Johnny." But it's so much more than that. It goes into some very deep stuff. And that's what I love about Stephen King. He doesn't just give you the answers. He lets you decide for yourself. A lot of people don't like that. They'd rather have the movie think for them. But this is one that forces a second viewing, and it's one of the creepiest movies you will ever see. I didn't think it was as creepy as the book by any means. Much like Pet Sematary, you have to read the book to really get scared. Nonetheless, it's a good scary movie that I definitely suggest seeing if you haven't already.
