Heeeeeeeeeeeere's The Shining! (please tell me that some reviewer hasn't used that one yet)

Date of Review:  Jun 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: is still a little creeped out by that old lady.
Review: Many a frightening film has been released since The Shining, but Kubrick's 1980 psychological-horror is still notable for its attempt to climb inside the protagonist's head. There are ample opportunities for the writer-director to spook us with...

The Shining - 1980

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2008
The Bottom Line:
"Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!"
~Pink Floyd

Review: Although The Shining is considered one of the classic horror movies and there is much to love about the film, there are also some glaring negatives as well.  That certainly doesn't mean I don't like it because I've seen it a bazillion times, even...

The Shining: Ultimate Terror from King and Kubrick!!!

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 2000
The Bottom Line: This movie is truly terrifying. I recommend that sprited people try watching it alone, in the dark.
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed being spooked by this movie. The elements are all involved to make the audience cringe with excitement, anticipation and fear. This movie is an adaptation of a Stephen King story about a small family who takes care of the...

It's pretty dark for a movie called "The Shining"

Date of Review:  Sep 3, 2004
The Bottom Line: ?
Review: My brother and I had been meaning to see The Shining for a while. We knew very little about the movie except that Jack Nicholson was in it and that he uttered the sentence, "Here's Johnny!" We finally got it from Netflix.

The movie starts...

"Danny's not here, Mrs. Torrance"

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: Just a tad short of the best horror films ever.
Review: If little Danny Torrance and the Overlook Hotel's chef Dick Hallorann can converse via mental telepathy and thought broadcasting, I ought to be able to transmit this review to your eyes without actually typing or putting pen to paper. Let's give it...

Paste Lame Shine Pun Here

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2002
The Bottom Line: Here's Johnny! I love that.
Review: Just what do you think of when you think of a haunted house? The stereotypical haunted house is little more than a large shack, very loosely boarded up with rotting wood, creaking floorboards and stairs, loose doors and a massive maze of codwebs...

"Wendy I'm Home.."

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2000
Review: I first saw this terrific movie in 1991,and I bought it in 1997. I have watched it over 200 times, and that isn't an exxageration. As a matter of fact I am watching it now.
The music is simply freaky and the story line is mysterious. Jack, as...

Wanna Real "SCREAM"?!

Date of Review:  Apr 13, 2000
Review: I was at work when overheard a boy ask a girl if she had watched The Shining on T.V. the night before. She coyly said, "The Shining, what's that about?" I said to myself, "Am I THAT old?, or have these youngsters been deceived into thinking that...

Heres Johnny!

Date of Review:  May 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a brilliant film for anyone who likes King's work or just a good scary movie
Review: Adapted from the book of the same title written by stephen king, this is a classic film directed by Stanley Kubrick (Eyes Wide Shut). This is the first adaptation of the Shining, as it was adapted as a tv mini-series in the 1990s. I got this from my...
