The Shining

Btw, have anyone seen Room 237? It sounds interesting.

Utterly, totally and completely love The Fog but The Shining is just a league above. The Shining, without doubt.

The Evil Dead for the previous one. Part II figures in my top 10 horror of all time but when it comes to comparing both films, the original is a cut above.

It appears we have a winner! Here were the results:

The Fog: 0

The Shining: 8 (knife_fight, Fulg HoarAR, realdealblues, horrorfangirl66, roshiq, V, natedog722, and tiberius)

The Changeling: 1 (Anthropophagus)

Thus, The Shining clearly crushed all its competition to become the winner!

I definitely agree that The Shining was an absolutely brilliant film and would definitely have been my pick for this round. The Fog and The changeling are really awesome films, although not anywhere near the level of The Shining. I would go on to say it was one of the greatest horror films of the 1980s and possibly the entire century. This is one of the few films that have virtually no flaws. Plus, Stanley Kubrick directed this film and he is one of my all-time favorite directors. Thus, for me, despite the other two being great movies, The Shining was the only film I would have chosen.

Love all 3 but Silver Bullet has been a big favorite of mine through the growing years.

Corey Haim/Gary Busey get mine.
