Shining And with great pleasure that reviews my favorite horror for me is a must must for the horror film, which is the best horror film of all time, no other horror that I saw the matches so far, in my personal deserves the top ranking ever.
The director then there's the genius of Stanley Kubrick, the greatest director of all time after having turned the extraordinary for me and for all fans of Kubrick's Barry Lyndon, who has been unjustly misunderstood by many, he decides to make a genre films to attract audiences, and decided to translate the novel for the screen by Stephen King, a result the film is different from the novel, (personally I have not read) and it is said that the film is much more frightening than the version of King then did do a remake for television and after he realized that the version of Kubrick far exceeded the TV version, there several scenes are creepy, what is frightening is when you can see all the twins (inspired by a Diane Arbus photo of a great friend of Kubrick's) death, covered in blood, scares me even now the scene of the bathroom when Jack enters the room where you can not otherwise get the ghosts repopulate the Overlook Hotel - hotel built on an Indian burial therefore already in itself and pretty damn scary - and there is the beautiful woman who hugs him and then becomes a zombie chasing it, that scene to me is absolute panic, Jack Nicholson in one of his best performances is the only one who can interpret Jack Torrance, The Shining was also an inspiration to Kubrick for Eyes Wide Shut, his final work for some scenes, we start? Let's go ...
So the story revolves around Jack Torrence which agrees to guard the winter all'Overlook Hotel, loneliness, locked environment and some stories about crimes that have consumed all'Overlook they slowly descend into madness Jack , as has happened with another man who massacred his family, the little Denny, has the gift of the glittering, or can see and feel the dark presence or ghosts and talk through thought, and it is thanks to this gift that the child can understand that the hotel was the scene of strange appearances even before the father accepts his assignment, and before that his father phones to break the news to his mother who agreed to be caretaker of the hotel.
Stephen King initially opposed the film version of Kubrick saying that the novel was much better than the film (it happens with all of it is true if I read the novel I will write an article on this), Kubrick said in response that the novel was not all this masterpiece, but despite this the film is' and IS a masterpiece, although it has also seen the exorcist and Rosemary's Baby (another masterpiece of horror that I hope to review soon) Shining possesses a quality which knows how to hit the first run and will remain imprinted forever, then everyone can have different opinions of what I think for me is the greatest horror of all times, and this is enough for me.
