HORROR SHINES THROUGH THE DEMONIC EYES OF JACK NICHOLSON!
The Shining is the best horror classic ever made next to The Exorcist. Everytime i watch this movie, i`m fully aware that i`m watching the greatest actor who ever lived. Jack Nicholson is breathtaking as Jack Torrance, who is assigned to take care of The Overlook Hotel the entire winter.
The Shining deals with the destructing forces of total isolation, and how people become victims of evil forces. The story is great, the acting is overwhelming and the movie is perfect. Vivian Kubricks making of documentary is the most interresting i`ve ever seen. It is almost worth the price alone.
The dvd has got bad picture, and sound. Shame on WB for treating a treasure like this so disrespectful. Anyway, a 6 on the 1-6 scale.
EB.
