FIRST TIME WATCHING THE SHINING (REACTION)
In this video, I react to the classic horror movie: The Shining. This film follows Jack Torrance as he becomes the winter caretaker for an isolated hotel and he moves in with his wife, Wendy, and his son, Danny. As the days progress, Danny's visions get worse and Jack becomes insane.

The moral of this and many horror stories: don't mess with Indian Burial grounds

[@SinisterSouthernbelleReactions]

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 exactly

[@frankmirra8243]

Now you need to see the next movie Dr.Sleep. Danny is now an adult dealing with his own demons and supernatural forces. It really good.

[@SinisterSouthernbelleReactions]

This movie was amazing. Loved watching it! Very original thought. #rosethehat

[@carlossaraiva8213]

Dr Sleep is a very good movie/book on its own but as a sequel to The Shining it slmost feels like a parody, like a joke that got out of hand znd went too far. Its as if Stephen King got so fed up by being asked to do a sequel thst he came up with the silliest thing he could imagine snd told the public "here's the sequel now leave me alone FO".

[@Randsurfer]

"Here's Johnny' was universally known expression as it was the iconic intro for Johnny Carson every night on the tonight show for 30? years.

[@SinisterSouthernbelleReactions]

This movie was amazing. Loved watching it! Very original thought.

[@enidrobertson4858]

Jack has the shining, but Danny really, really has it. The hotel is using the shining to get Jack to kill Danny so that his shining can be absorbed into the hotel. As Jack falls deeper towards the evil deed, the hotel begins shining brighter - bright enough for Wendy to begin seeing it, too. Tony is, of course, Danny's protector. When Jack goes all in on getting to chopping, Tony kicks it into overdrive by taking over Danny in order to wake up Wendy, give her a weapon, and get them tf out.

[@sreyangovender3404]

[@pheerstringer]

This is one of the most concise explanations. Well done.

A true masterpiece of a book and a movie. I've never been so startled by a day of the week before. I mean one second you're just watching a movie and trying to keep up, then all of a sudden out of nowhere... TUESDAY!! 😱

[@axebeard6085]

3:00 Stephen King was staying at the Stanley Hotel in suite 217. He and his wife stayed there on vacation at the end of the season when no one else was staying in the hotel, and the staff were getting the hotel ready to close. For the film, the hotel exterior is the Timberline Lodge at Mt. Hood, Oregon. Although the interior shots were done on sets, those sets were inspired by the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite.

[@chrisrus1965]

I heard King said he used to be an alcoholic. He would sit and write and drink and write and drink. One day his kid spilled on a week's work. Jack is King at that moment.

[@Sp1tfire_5316]

I asked my dad to watch this movie with me he asked if i was sure and after saying yes we sat and watched it with him telling me to cover my eyes during the nude lady scene so i wouldnt get grossed out by the effects this movie holds a special place in my heart and ik my dad was really happy that i was willing to watch his favorite Stephen king movie

[@nielsenjesp]

When Wendy talks with the doctor, after Dannys incident with Tony, it feels like an interview that could be picked straight from a documentary or something. It’s so realistic and natural..

[@KennethSorling]

Jack Torrance having memorized the layout of the labyrinth would have been a GREAT plot point! Luckily, Danny got to get away safely. In the original novel, there was no maze. There were, however, hedge sculptures in the shape of wile animals, like bears and giant wolves. And they were kind of like the Weeping Angels in Dr. Who. You really dídn't want to turn your back on them... or even take your eyes off them. (shudder).

[@firegod001]

I love that you either pause or stop talking the way you do. So many reactors miss a TON because they just can't shut up while stuff is going on in the movie.

[@asian-americanwithanopinio8954]

I like to think Nicholson got casted for Joker because of "One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest" (Also starring the Penguin Danny Devito, Doc from Back to the Future, The actor who's the voice of Chucky, the villain from "Hills have Eyes, all stuck in a mental ward in the 60's.

[@victorsixtythree]

12:33 - I believe that hexagonal maze-like carpet pattern was used in an episode of "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends". It caught my eye when my son was watching that show one time.

[@waleed149]

26:04 One of the best pieces of music put in one of the scariest scenes

[@petercofrancesco9812]

Kubrick does a good job slowly building tension (music). Really more about the evil within than about ghosts. Types of physiological abuse is a very real thing that's what makes it more impactful. Of course the acting is great.

[@charlescallen460]

Very nice reaction. Keep up the good work!🙂💯

[@Randsurfer]

Given your intelligence, you would love Kubrick's first movie "Dr. Strangelove" a satire about the USA/Soviet Union cold war and Nuclear War tension. Possibly the smartest farce I've ever seen.

[@pixiesyay]

Agreed.

[@paulwolffart1251]

Kubrick made several movies in the 1950s before 1964’s Dr. Strangelove. It’s worth going back and checking those too.

I could watch people reacting to the guy in the dog costume going down on the guy in the bed every day 😂 it’s just such a random scene that shocks and confuses everyone. It was explained in the book but not in the movie.

[@robovike]

It would behoove you to give the director's cut of Doctor Sleep a go--the director did the Haunting of Hill House, Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass and Fall of the House of Usher series on Netflix and they are all top tier. It's basically, "what happens to Danny as a grown up?" I do applaud your question early on about "what would you eat?" And of course we get the litany of menu options shortly thereafter from Mr. Halloran, a great character for his guidance and tutelage and his gastronomical expertise.

9:31 - "This whole place is such an enormous maze..." Like, an enormous HEDGE maze perhaps...

[@melissawinn996]

Stephen King said he hated this movie but absolutely loved doctor sleep

[@jbwarner8626]

He hated it at the time, but he's come around on it in recent years. Even though it changes a lot from the book, he admits now that it's still a strong horror movie in its own right.

I still remember when I watched the movie and since it wasn't scary I felt very brave and bought the book. Dear God, I couldn't read that book at night or when I was alone. Yet, I love the book so much.

[@sca88]

This and the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre have my favorite unsettling soundtracks.

[@Eyevin]

Look up the music of Krzysztof Penderecki, some of his music was used in the movie. Look up Polymorphia.

[@Laxhoop]

The Shining is different from so many other horror films, because it’s not about the threat of violence, it’s a *promise* of violence.

[@Gravydog316]

it's unsettling, like the music, weird carpet, Tony...

[@MrKINSM]

If you watch the sequel with Ewan McGregor playing an older Danny, it fills in a lot of questions pertaining to this movie and makes you appreciate the original even more so imho.

[@LoneCloudHopper]

SPOILER ALLERT: Kubrick had a different vision for the film than King. He didn't want to bring topiary monsters to life, electing to go with a hedge maze instead. The change in plot really begins with Halloran's death. In the novel, he becomes the hero to the rescue.. Kubrick wanted to take the audience by surprise, surprising King fans with a twist of his own. In watching the ending for the first time, no one could know how it was going to play out.

[@hbron112]

Great reaction to Kubrick's take on horror. I'd love to see you react to his other movies about the future, the past, war, love, and everything else.

[@j.woodbury412]

The name "The Shining" was inspired by the John Lennon song, "Instant Karma"- "And we all shine on"

Here's Johnny was, itself, a reference to the Johnny Carson show. A tv interview program

[@floorticket]

Oddly enough, Jack Nicholson never appeared on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, or any other late-night talk show for that matter. He rarely did television interviews at all. The last sit-down talk show he did was an episode of "The Mike Douglas Show" in 1976. This is from Jack's IMDb "Self" page. If anyone knows of any other sit-down, mainstream, terrestrial TV interviews let IMDb know.

[@eximusic]

So besides psychic occurrences and ghost sightings, the only supernatural intervention with physical reality was the unlocking of the freezer. Oh, and the lady attacking the boy. Great, intelligent reaction!

There is a sequel to the shining called Doctor Sleep. It stars Ewen McGregor as a grown up Danny. You should watch it. There is also an excellent documentary called Room 237 that explores all the theories people have about the true meaning of the Shining.

Also the "Can I go to my room and get my fire engine" scene, look at the tv and ask yourself where is the AC cord? It's not plugged in. There is no cord. The TV isn't really on. It's in Wendy's head. Plus kids love stimulation. If the TV was on Danny would watch it and likely not be asking to leave to get his fire engine truck.

[@aridassa7458]

One of the great horror movies ever made, by the greatest director of all time, Stanley Kubrick. I’m not even a horror film fan but this one is a classic. Scary stuff. Also highly recommend a Japanese horror film called “Cure”. Very unsettling and atmospheric!

[@Randsurfer]

"I just want peace, love, and happiness" she says, watching a horror movie.

[@flibber123]

I think the reasoning behind Hallorann dying was that his shining power is much less powerful than Danny's. We get clues to this during the movie. Danny says Hallorann told him that the things he sees in the hotel are like pictures in a book. Hallorann still works in the hotel even though his shining allows him to see some of what's there. If he was experiencing things on the level that Danny is, would Hallorann really still be working there all this time? Grady tells Jack that Danny is attempting to bring Hallorann into the situation. Danny is contacting Hallorann because Hallorann does not have the power to reach out to Danny. When Hallorann gets to the hotel, his shining ability doesn't show him anything. This means he shows up at the hotel at a big disadvantage. Jack hears someone coming but Hallorann has no warning that anything is going on.

[@Randsurfer]

And the axe to the chest. But, tbh, your analysis sounds correct.

The only thing I don’t like about the movie, compared to the novel, is the lack of a build to Jack’s madness/possession. In most of the book, he’s fairly normal, we learn about his struggles with alcohol, how it wrecked him to accidentally hurt Danny. He’s a very sympathetic character. The movie makes him seem crazy and other from the start.

[@davidnorman4786]

There's a Stephen King World Fan Theory that says that Carrie White (from Carrie) may have been Jack's illegitimate daughter. We do know from Dr. Sleep (the sequel) that Jack slept around a bit. You do need to watch Dr. Sleep. It was Stephen King's attempt to get rid of all the insane/cool fan theories about this movie. It kind of tells you exactly what was happening. Shelley Duval deserved an Academy Award for this movie. You really see someone who is an emotional wreck at the start and she is stripped down completely raw. Instead she won an overacting Razzie. Boo. "I've been uncomfortable a lot in this movie." Kubrick is smiling in his grave. Yes. Danny was trying to bring "an outside party" into the situation. In the book, Danny screams for help. In the movie, he sends Halloran scary images. In the book, Tony was Danny from the future (his middle name was Anthony). But it's also suggested that he's his Contact: sort of like the connection to the Other Side. "OK that was really loud" when Danny hides in the cabinet and knocks the dishes over. There's another Fan Theory that Danny did that on purpose. He was essentially hunting Jack and trying to draw him to him so he could get him in the maze.
