Time on Screen: The Shining

Time on Screen is back this week with an all new episode, just in time for Halloween. We’re pretty big fans of horror movies around here and don’t need much of an excuse to talk about them on a podcast, but we’ll gladly take one. So today, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are digging into what is perhaps the greatest horror movie ever made, The Shining. Directed by Stanley Kubrick, the 1980 adaptation of the Stephen King novel has a complex history, from a difficult production to a mixed reception upon release, and decades of gradually seeping into popular culture to the point where the film’s impact is undeniable. Zach and Kat discuss all of that and more, and also dip into Doctor Sleep, the underrated 2019 sequel directed by Mike Flanagan.
