Jack Torrance moves his family into The Overlook Hotel for the winter so he can concentrate on his book. His son’s special ability reveals a troubled history which soon begins to impose itself on Jack, leading to a delusional and murderous finale.

Stanley Kubrick’s multi layered masterpiece was dismissed by critics, nominated for Razzies and hated by Stephen King. But quick reappraisal established The Shining as a pop culture icon and one of the greatest horror movies ever.

All The Right Movies’ credit is fine as we check into the Overlook Hotel to talk about The Shining.
