Think of the greatest terror imaginable. Is it a monstrous alien? A lethal epidemic? Or, as in this
harrowing masterpiece from Stanley Kubrick, is it fear of murder by someone who should love and
protect you - a member of your own family?
From a script he co-adapted from the Stephen King novel, Kubrick melds vivid performances,
menacing setting, dreamlike tracking shots and shock after shock into a milestone of the macabre. In
a signature role, Jack Nicholson plays Jack Torrance, who's come to the elegant, isolated Overlook
Hotel as off-season caretaker with his wife and son. Torrance has never been there before - or has he?
The answer lies in a ghostly time warp of madness and murder.
