Not really a Kubrick film.

He was originally gonna make it, but didn't bother in the end and gave it to Spielberg.

Wow Marc get watching i love 2001 A Space Odyssey , Clockwork Orange is also a must see.
Dr Strangelove is another good one.

I’ve seen The Shining so many times over the years and it still manages to get under my skin and give me the creeps. Something about the isolation and those long, empty corridors in the hotel. *shudders*
