Logline: Shortly after writer Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) and family assume their roles as caretakers of an old, snowed-in lodge, Jack is instructed by a ghost to “correct” his family. Jack descends into shear lunacy.
Memorable Moments: Who could ever forget the scene where Wendy Torrance (Shelley Duvall) could do nothing but watch in complete horror as her husband-turned-lunatic (Jack) chops down the door—the only thing standing in between him and her—with an ax?
Why People Love It: Number one: Deranged lunatic who terrorizes family, Jack Nicholson. Two: Creepy, blood-soaked girls and Damien-like little Danny. Three: Deranged lunatic who terrorizes family, Jack Nicholson.
Best Quote: Danny Torrance (Danny Lloyd): “Redrum, Redrum, Redrum”
