The Shining

One of the more classic or movies of all time. The SHining features a small family who is caretakeing a haunted hotel for the winter. During a bad snowstorm, the father goes mad and tries to kill the rest of the family. I've been meaning to see this movie forever, and I have to admit, it was actually worth the hype. I love good ghost stories, and this one was well done. The acting was also a really good point of the movie. Some of teh scenes still give me chills thinking about them. Check it out. 5 out of 5.
