The Shining By Arplix Franklin By Arplix Franklin on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" famous words spokeny by an equally famous crazy man. I have been a huge fan of this film since I was little the creepyness made it all worth while for me even as a child. It's one of those movies that keeps you at the edge of your seat and wanting more. I couldn't think of anyone better then Jack Nocholson to play Jack Torrence.

He is a great bad guy I loved him in Batman as well and the crazyness was there then too. He really gets into character well. I thought every character was well played actually the little boy who did Danny did a fantastic job. I am sad to say I have never read the book I haven't been able to get my hands on it but even so I got a visual look into it and loved what I saw!

The twin girls was a nice touch they were pretty creepy as well and showing the slaughter was amazing! It captured everything perfectly. I give Stanley Kubrick 10 stars for this one.

Heeerrrrrrrrrrss JOHNNY! All of King's work has tranlated to the screen fairly well. But nothing beats the read. Good write.
