Holy cow. My mind is blown. Everything from the title, to the director dying 5 days after submitting the final cut, to the location chosen to film the cult party. These links are a long read but a great explanation of the movie.
So many unbelievable things that I've come across in this group are confirmed by this movie. I saw someone mention it in a comment months ago and glad I finally came around to watching it. It was very strange in the beginning, but you have to remember you're not watching a regular movie, you're watching someone trying to show you what's going on without explicitly saying it. After reading the above articles I am just blown away.
Isn't it? At the end of the movie, they win. It demonstrates their power and at the same time allows them to tell any of their real life accusers that they are nuts and just getting their false information from a movie. At the time, we had zero power to stop them. To them, that's a badge of honor.
Maybe you're right. I took it as a warning they were sick and twisted and will destroy your life if you get involved with them...I guess they might like that message if it leads you into being frightened of them.
That's the message in the Shinning right there.
Kubrick the man does not survive but his creative inner child escapes the "hotel California" like deal (to help film the Moon Landing or create and advise the techniques and setups for NASA)
Kubrick took Kings novel and totally inverted it to suit his needs.
King hated the movies. Got it remade for TV. Kubrick had a habit of doing this, in fact Arcthur C Clark and Kubrick co-wrote the novel as the movie was being made. The ending are not the same. You almost think Kubrick picked these projects and re-moulded them to his agenda, which would keep people off the scent, especially those producing/funding it.
There dialogue in the opening scene of the Shinning will blow peoples minds:

It's worth watching this scene to see how JACK delivers the final line of the sen in the car as they are diving to the Hotel.
The Shining is a lot of things. A LOT of things. You know this I'm sure, but it's also a study of how Evil reproduces through trauma and sexual abuse. MKULTRA.
Tony the Finger, the boy who lives in the back of Danny's mouth... Well yeah.
Hell now that I'm thinking about it, the fact their name is Torrance could be a way to tie them to Hollywood Pedophilia.
Interesting you focus on Torrence.
Long time ago it was noticed a there was a place name of Torrence, I think ti was in Florida near Cape Canaveral, but I can't find it now. There was definitely a connection on a map.
Maybe someone who knows Florida better can fill us in?
Yes, if you didn't know, they feed off of negative energy. They believe under their "religion" they have to tell us what they are doing and if we don't object then they consider that we have accepted what they do. Even though they "tell" us with their movies which isn't honest about telling us anything, they consider it to informing us.
