Stanley Kubrick's The Shining

"**Stanley Kubrick's The Shining**" is the fourteenth episode of the first season of We'll See You In Hell. It is a commentary episode.

## Episode Description

*There’s been many milestones so far in the history of Joe DeRosa and Patrick Walsh’s WE’LL SEE YOU IN HELL Podcast. There was the show’s inaugural episode back in August, then the first live episode at Mile High Horror in October and the first episode of the new year last week. Now, WE’LL SEE YOU IN HELL is back on track with another milestone, as the gruesome twosome deliver their most epic episode to date with an extra-long commentary for Stanley Kubrick’s THE SHINING! For their fourteenth installment, Joe & Pat deliver their sinister spin on the classic Stephen King adaptation, talking about haunted hotels, MAKING A MURDERER and the contentious relationship between Kubrick and King. As our horror hosts fall into their own Torrance-style drunken stupor, they discuss color themes in horror, demented documentaries on Joe & Pat’s radar and the behind-the-scenes insanity behind THE SHINING. And the WE’LL SEE YOU IN HELL duo field viewer questions for the first time in months!*
