Disturbing and impressing

Rating: 9/10 (6 November 1999)

Stanley Kubrick's films are always impressing. Since "2001" to "Eyes Wide Shut". We've missed the best director ever this year and nothing is going to be the same without him. During all his career, he had made many masterpieces, and never a bad film. The only time he tried to do a horror movie he had great results: "The Shining" is there to prove.
I just had the chance to see it some days ago, and I have to say that it really impressed me, specially because of the intense psychological horror.
There are not many subtle scares. As I said, what really impress is the psychological factor. Still that, there are some unforgettable horror scenes: the blood gushing from the elevator, the dead body emerging of the bathtub...
If you are fan of this genre (horror) this is a must-see. You can love or hate it, but it will really disturb you.
