Lonely and empty.
Lonely house, lonely people. People will become depressed in loneliness, and the 80-year-old Vision Hotel in "The Shining" seems to have matured, and it is equally depressed during the five-month winter closure period every year. In 1970, the winter caretaker here chopped his wife and two daughters into pieces with an axe and stacked them neatly in the room before committing suicide.

This is the work of the film master Kubrick, adapted from the horror novel of the horror novel master Stephen King. This film does not have many bloody scenes, but it is one of the most terrifying horror films in history. Its horror is A little bit seeps into your spine, stores it quietly in your body, and then surprises you, controlling your nerves and breathing.
What scares you? I believe that running in a gloomy and huge empty room with your eyes blocked would be a good answer. The original scene created by Kubrick in the film always follows the people in the play at the same height as the characters ghostly, following them walking, running, and stepping on toy cars in solitude. A large piece of the audience's perspective is blocked by the people in the play , only the scenery next to it keeps retreating, the repeated footsteps and the sound of the toy car moving echoes in the large empty room, and then superimposed with the sudden sudden screeching, then the horror has slowly accumulated in your heart. .
The actor's performance is the most important horror prop in this movie. Jack Nicholson's ferocious face alone is enough to make you horrified. After watching the tidbits, you will know that he brushes his teeth before every performance.

The color of the film is bright and dazzling, with red, blue, yellow and green colliding together, as permeating Kubrick-esque eerie and eerie as "A Clockwork Orange" and "2001: A Space Odyssey".
Unlike other films, Kubrick's films will not fade with the passage of time. Although he has been imitated by countless latecomers, he is still the one standing at the forefront today and has not been surpassed.
