one hell of a movie

Rating: 9/10 (10 May 2002)

The Shining is one scary movie. But you will be more surprised and "suspensed" if you see it, haven't read the book, and if you do not know a THING about the story/movie. It happened to me, anyway! There I was, at the edge of my seat anticipating and expecting every move they're making will be freaky.
The great thing about this movie is that it makes you imagine all sorts of things and makes you expect "scary stuff". Anyway, Jack Nicholson one scary actor in this movie. He fits in his role like a glove, complete with his haunting eyebrows. Shelley Duvall, I must say is a great surprise. From watching too many Fairy Tale Theater, I didn't know she could look really scared!
Stanley Kubrick is a scary genius. And that's from only one view point since I have yet seen his other movies. We can never tell what goes on his mind... The Shining is a great movie, take you friends and family to watch this Classic and make sure to dim the lights.
