The Shining

A masterpiece of modern horror.

Jack Torrance takes a caretaking position at the isolated Overlook Hotel in the Colorado mountains, hoping isolation will cure his writer's block and restore his fractured family. But the massive lodge harbors a sinister consciousness, one that feeds on human weakness. As winter closes in and the family becomes snowbound, the hotel's malevolent presence seeps into Jack's mind, unraveling his sanity and turning him into something far more dangerous than any external threat.
