Not all classics are revered when they're first released. Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining' was one of those films. Upon its release in the summer of 1980, it was given mediocre reviews by critics, panned by Stephen King, and was nominated for 2 Razzie Awards. Once 'The Shining' hit home video though, critics and viewers gave it a second chance, and it is now considered in most horror Top 10 Lists. This week we talk about the beauty and brutality that Stanley Kubrick captured on camera, and how Shelley Duvall was almost driven insane when she was forced to do 127 takes of the climactic baseball bat scene. Also, it took 148 takes to get the 'shine' scene between Scatman Crothers & Danny Lloyd and another 60 to get the shot of crothers alone in his room. Seriously, the making of this film is a horror movie in itself. Check out the documentary 'room 237' get a peek into the behind the scenes drama that occurred.
