Plot: A family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where an evil and spiritual presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from the past and of the future

Acting 9/10: Jack's incredible performance as the angry father and husband is as over the top as it is outstanding. Shelley, who plays the stressed wife who tries to help her son, she shows a kind of shaking fear in a lot of scenes and is able to show weakness in a very convincing way.

Would I recommend it? If you are a fan of Thrillers, Drama films, then you have to watch it. Its very creepy and exciting. The Shining is a brilliant cinematic masterpiece, the likes of which have never been seen before or since. Highly, highly recommended
