A Classic horror no dodgy American school kids to ruin anything

Rating: 10/10 (24 October 2008)

This is simply a masterpiece from the very beginning you're hooked its not like Halloween or interview a vampire where there are a some truly horrific moments and then other parts which are just plain boring actually i apologise Halloween has no boring scenes but interview a vampire is boring and i hate it anyhow back to the shining. This whole film is fantastic the opening music is very fitting and jack Nicholson played a memorable role as jack Torrance, i don't know who the butler bloke was who persuaded jack to kill his wife but he did the part very well the ending in the maze is brilliant the perfect setting for the chase between jack and his son. I don't of many Kubrick films except the ones everyone has seen or heard of (clockwork orange,full metal jacket and this). There is only one thing I'm really annoyed about that involves this film and thats those idiots at the golden rasberry awards who gave Shelly duvall worst actor and Stanley Kubrick worst director first why put them as an option and why the hell did people vote for them whoever voted should be found and put in that hotel. I give it 10\10 great film.
