The girlies are fighting, y’all. Ever since The Shining (1980) first smashed its way into theaters, Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick were at each other’s throats, arguing about whose version of the story is best, whose is a fancy car without an engine, and whose is by no means a serious literary work. On a new Spooky Tuesday, though, we just may have discovered that a combination of the two canons makes for the best understanding of the film — and we’re sharing our thoughts and theories as we break down one of the most famous horror movies (or straight up just one of the most famous movies) of all time.
