One of the most revered films around the Dread Central offices is Stanley Kubrick’s masterful take on Stephen King’s The Shining. Cinephilia and Beyond dug up some continuity Polaroid photos used to keep track of the on-set mayhem, and we have a look at them for you here!
Based on Stephen King’s bestselling novel, Kubrick’s tale of a family man and would-be writer (Jack Nicholson) going mad as winter caretaker of the cursed Overlook Hotel is a seminal work of the genre.
Kubrick’s film has been described as a masterpiece of modern horror and is widely considered to be one of the most terrifying movies ever made. However, at the time of release both Kubrick and lead actress Shelley Duvall were nominated for Razzie Awards for the film.
