The Shining

I’m sorry to defer with you, but you’ve always been in the rec room. Pour yourself a bourbon and advocaat. It’s time to discuss The Shining! We Hate Movies cohost Eric Szyszka returns to discuss our favourite elevated/elevator horror movie, The Shining. Does the lore around how Kubrick treated Duvall border on disrespectful toward her legacy? What is the actual best Stephen King adaptation? And, in all seriousness, what are the biggest ways in which this movie has influenced the horror genre and filmmaking in general? Plus, lots of Treehouse of Horror V references!
