One of the most revered films around the Dread Central offices is Stanley Kubrick’s masterful tale of terror that is based upon Stephen King’s classic novel The Shining. As good as that film is though… that’s not gonna stop the folks over at The Onion from having some fun at its expense.
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.
