Wow. Think I had the chills the entire time. At the end I kinda felt like none of it happened at all, is that what you guys thought? Seemed like the director left it up to the viewer to interpret it for themselves. Great movie though, Jack was fantastic

never seen it.

Read the book. The ending is completely different. So much so it pissed Stephen King off.

Book was better. Shelley Duvall ruins that flick for me but the twin girls are creepy as hell

She was horrible. I wish Nicholson would have bashed her brains in.

I always wanted to live on a few dozen acres and create that hedge maze. It'd be easy to hide a body in there.

I never finished the book and had to return it to the MSU lib. Fuck.

Could be the flu.

Or withdrawals... Stop shooting up so much, Tim.

Wetlands work much better. So I hear.

by **Watch Out Pylon!** 2016-01-26, 14:57

Yeah, this is one of my favorite movies and book.

by **steveschneider** 2016-01-26, 15:10

There's an even creepier doc about the film called room 237.

Regarding the shining what a mind blowing film. Jack's performance in it is unbelievable and so is Shelly's imo. Kubrik pushed her hard in that film.

Strangle, I too watched it for the first time and had the complete opposite effect. Movie was entirely dated, and doesn't hold up to today's horror flicks. Meh at best

Yea she sucked as an actress, but the girls could be way more creepy

Today's horror flicks? Give me some suggestions because when I used to be more into them a few years ago - many of them sucked, bad.

Shit, I'm no expert on this bit start with the saw series.

Frankly, this movie reminded me more like eyes wide shut more than anything else.

There are no words to explain how dumb this post is.

You just took the money out of the book and never read a word.

i am embarrassed for the entire human race.

The fucking Saw series?! I didn't mind the first two - but after that, come the fuck on man.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** 2016-01-26, 16:00

Human centipede is scarier at first but then it gets sexy

This was the first rated R movie I saw. I don't know what my parents were thinking. I had nightmares for years about it.
