ANGELIKA’S NOTE

One of the most iconic horror movies of all time – and #65 in IMDB’s Top Rated Movies list – Stanley Kubrick’s (2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, BARRY LYNDON) THE SHINING will leave you unnerved and unsettled to the core. Featuring chilling performances from Jack Nicholson (CHINATOWN, THE DEPARTED, AS GOOD AS IT GETS), Shelley Duvall (POPEYE, THREE WOMAN, ANNIE HALL), and Danny Lloyd (DOCTOR SLEEP, WILL: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY, ARENA). TIME Magazine raves, "Kubrick has made a movie that will have to be reckoned with on the highest level."
