So surfing the television channels and being an avid Stephen King fan at the time, he came across The Shining and asked if I would mind if we watched it. Of course, I said not at all. Well, by the time that movie was over I sure could have used some of that morphine just to sleep.  |
I can relate to that. And not for NOTHING. The book by the same name takes you even more into this history of the Overlook Hotel.
For some reason when I was quite young there was a movie I frequently had nightmares about. It was
Fantasia Fantasia (1940) - Rotten Tomatoes. I turned these animated creatures into the things of nightmares. Much like Stephen King did with a clown in
It.
