My favourite horror movie

The shining 

                                                                                      Trailer:  https://youtu.be/S014oGZiSdI


 The shining is one of the most classic films in the horror context.
Plot:
Jack Torrance, signs a contract which says that his family and him are going to guard in the winter an isolated hotel situated in a high mountain. There aren't any guests while they are there. They recreate a history that says that, a few years ago, there has been murdered a whole family in the hotel by the father. While they stay there, Jack begins drunking more and more and becomes an addict. That makes him evolve into a crazy and irrational person who hounds his woman and tries to murder his son and her untill they flee.

Best moment: I think that, the best moment, or the most surprising is the one which the main character gets into the bathroom of one of the non ocupated rooms in the hotel and discobers a woman bathing. The she goes in front of him and transforms into a diabolical person.

My opinion: I don't watch horror films because I get afraid every time I do it, and this one is not an exception. This is a psicologichal terror movie, and I think it's the unique of this type that I've watched. I didn't really like it because, although I sopose that it's been difficut to film, It's quite old and the quality of the video isn't the best. I also dilike it because the film stressed me a lot while I was watching it. I've choosen it because, I think that the actors make a great performance.
