I think the fact that it didn't totally disturb the hell out of me – like if I'd have watched The Exorcist or The Shining that young, it might have had a different effect but it had the sort of sci-fi edge that’s not too brutal. [This] opened the door for me to An American Werewolf in London and The Howling.

I think that If I came to a hotel that is abandoned in like "The Shining," I would probably put my family back in the car and drive away.

I think that The Shining is probably my favorite horror movie just because it’s a smart film, but at the same token it’s so chilling, and there’s so much to dig into. I mean, I could get myself into two-hour-long hauls just looking at conspiracy theories about it on the internet.

Of course, a masterpiece. That’s the one film where I finally understood why some directors do a million takes.

The Shining is an incredible, bizarre, absurd, insane film.

It f—ed me up for life. I still can’t walk down a long corridor without getting scared.

I love "The Shining."

I’d say The Shining. One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest. I’m a huge Jack Nicholson fan. He’s obviously… Everything from Five Easy Pieces, another one that’s just phenomenal to me… Yeah, he’s a god to me.

The Shining, Do the Right Thing and Don't Say a Word in "Livin' in a Movie" (2005) Reference: "The shining, make it hard for her to do the right thing/But I don't say a word, I'll never tell"

Classic. Iconic. Remarkable.

There is like a seminal moment in my life, when I was young very young and my dad showed me "The Shining". It was so weird cuz at one point I was so freaked about it, but I was aroused at the same time for the like one of the first times, maybe the first time in my life and I was sitting next to my father that all happening at once is kind of edged in my mind forever and not the best of way,but it's there.

It's like The Shining in here. Just me and you. **GQ It is. Wait—The Shining is in your top five movies of all time, right By definition
