The Shining (1980)

Best Movie Ever!
JanethCruz - wrote on 07/16/08

Truly one of the best horror/thriller films ever! I fist saw it when I was 10 and I was petrified to go to the bathroom at night thinking I would see those little girls. I wish they would make more films like this one. Today, horror movies have a lot of unnecessary violance and nudity (and of course bad acting). True horror movies, like The Shinning, prove that less is more. What makes this movie so terrifying is that the scenerio could actually happen. People are able to go insane if they are stuck in a place as isolated as the Overlook Hotel where you have many places to hide but nowhere to run.
