The Shining (HD)

The Shining is showing this evening on Premiere HD. I've only had SkyHD less than a year, apologies if this has been shown before (a search reveals nothing).

This is definitely a 'record' and 'keep' for me

Further viewings in case you miss tonights broadcast

Re: The Shining (HD)

Looks great on HD DVD.Excellent film and those empty corridors are genuinely creepy.We once stayed in a very large hotel in off season and were the only occupiers on our floor and all other rooms empty and silent.....not the most comfortable of feelings

Nice, will be able to watch this as I'm getting HD installed on wednesday. Anyone know if it is the cut or uncut version?

Loved the book, I think I'm probably the only person that thought the film was rubbish, preferred the mini-series, more faithful to the book.
