Not to be a smart ass, but I've never heard of The Shinning (sounds fucking painful, though:p ) Howver, if you're talking about the Shining, I'd go with that one. As a HUGE fan of King's novels (well, most of the them, anyway), Kubrick's version varies a little from the book, but it's one of the best adaptations of his work. Happy viewing!

Well I just finished CARRIE and what a great movie! It was an 8/10 for me. Next I am gonna watched THE SHINING and then THE FORSAKEN . And surpisingly CARRIE was even a little scary. The ending got me!

Carrie 8/10
The Shining 10/10 (It was fuckin' scary as Hell!)
The Forsaken 5/10 (It started out really good, and gory, but then it was really boring after the first like 20 minutes. It got boring after they put the girl in the bathtub.)

But seriously, this belongs in Past Horror Movies............ Shit! Forgot about that one (Halloween Simpsons are my faves too!) Just a quick question... how do you only quote part of someone's post when replying. Sometimes it's only one line that I want to quote out of like 4 pages of freakin text and I hate quoting the whole thing (my intention gets lost sometimes)?

I think she did a great job acting for her age back then.

I dont have a problem with Spaceks acting, nor anyones for that matter. And the plot idea is so-so. But going from bored, to poor mopey whiney carrie, to who is this wild woman who's her mother took it's toll on me.
