Thank goodness its a re-release - if Hollywood re-made The Shining these days there's no telling what they would do to it - probably have a busload of cheerleaders accidently get stranded up there too..

That's right, there'd be sex all over the place. And instead of Scatman Crothers giving the boy a bowl of ice cream he'd give him an apple to prevent obesity.

This is one of my favorite movies.

It was actually released at the high point of the teen slasher movie in 1980 when there were plenty films every month featureing just that.
