The rerelease of Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining' is another chance to savour, first of all, those magnificent interior sets.
Read full review at The GuardianIt’s a great movie and I can understand why it became so huge, but today, it really doesn’t add up to the better, scarier horror movies. Kinda disappointed as I really wanted to like this movie
a classic horror, no above or below. claustrophobic, psychological perfectionism. you step straight into the 70s. and the quiet empty feeling creeps inside you. the music and sounds are brilliant. i still see it.

Ostensibly a haunted house story, it manages to traverse a complex world of incipient madness, spectral murder and supernatural visions... and also makes you jump.
Read full review at EmpireAwesome horror film. It's creepy and it's beautifully shot. Nicholson's acting is both scary and fun.
It is this elusive open-endedness that makes Kubrick's film so strangely disturbing.
Read full review at Roger Ebert...dwells at the outer limits of what can be thought of as a genre film, stretching the definition, filling it out, leaving it richer in its wake.
