The Shining

Newly Added • 2h 23m

Directed by Stanley Kubrick • 1980 • United Kingdom, United States
Starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd

One of the most enigmatic and endlessly analyzed horror films ever made, this chilling descent into madness and domestic terror from visionary director Stanley Kubrick stars an iconically disturbing Jack Nicholson as Jack Torrance, a writer and recovering alcoholic. When Jack takes a job as winter caretaker at a remote hotel high in the Rocky Mountains, he, his wife (Shelley Duvall), and their psychic young son find themselves at the mercy of a sinister force that gradually drives the troubled Jack over the edge.
