The Shining/闪灵


This movie was one of Kubrick's classics, and also one of the Hollywood's classic horror movies. (Unfortunately, I was not shocked much as I had read many of an introduction to it and watched several fragments in advance.) Enclosed room, irritable minds, somewhat dark rumours, coupled with the pressure from work, all these would drive the people living in the hotel to collapse. The structure of the movie reminded me of "Ghost Ship" watched before, both were about the story of being tempted by evil and being driven to crazy. Each of both had its merits.

Some parts of the movie were very impressive, like Jack chopped the door of the bathroom with an ax, and the weird appearance of the twin sisters.

本片是库布里克的经典之一,也是好莱坞的恐怖片经典之一。(遗憾的是我在看本片的时候,由于之前看的过多的介绍和片段节选导致受到的冲击并不是那么强。)封闭的空间,暴躁的心灵,若有若无的黑暗的传闻,再加上工作的压力,都足以让身处其中的人崩溃。影片的架构让我想起了之前看过的《幽灵船》,同样都是受到邪恶引诱而失狂的故事,各有千秋。

片中的若干镜头给人印象相当深刻,例如杰克斧劈浴室们,还有一对双胞胎女孩儿诡异的出现。
