7. The Shining (1980)

Jack Nicholson’s career defining performance turned The Shining into one of the most legendary horror movies of all time. Set in a remote hotel, the film depicts the travails of the Torrance family during a chilly Colorado winter. Jack’s slow descent into madness is shown to the audience through a series of conversations with hotel employees who could only be ghostly figments of his fragmenting mind. Quotes like “Heeeere’s Johhnny” and “redrum” are cultural icons now.
