Obviously the Best Horror Film of all Time!

Rating: 10/10 (21 January 2020)

Let me just sum this entire film up in one word for you... PERFECT!! A lot of people say Jack Nicholson is just Jack Nicholson, while that may be true you still couldn't have picked somebody better for the role. This is my favorite horror film, Jack delivers one of my top 10 performances of all time, one of my top 10 movies of all time and ever so slightly better than A Clockwork Orange (2001: A Space Odyssey not included, because that film is flawless up to par with Shining.) I can proudly say I have watch this film at least 15 times and it just gets scarier and scarier every single time I watch it, I find more hidden secrets and Shelley Duvall's performance is extremely underrated and I believe it is one of the best performances from a female ever put on screen. 99.9% of people mostly remember this film for the iconic, "Here's Johnny!" but there is so much more to it than that. Stephen King refers to this film as a beautiful car with no motor inside, now I 100% disagree with everything Stephen King says, good job Stanley for getting your copy of 'The Shining' and throwing it in the trash. The movie is better than the book and I will stick to those words till the day that I die (sorry Stephen King fans.) You know what this is gonna get.... A+
