"The Shining" tells the story of Jack Torrance, a writer who takes a job as the winter caretaker of the isolated Overlook Hotel in Colorado. Jack, along with his wife Wendy (played by Shelley Duvall) and their son Danny (played by Danny Lloyd), arrive at the hotel in the midst of a severe winter storm, which serves as a physical and metaphorical barrier to the outside world. As the days pass, Jack's sanity begins to unravel, and he becomes increasingly violent and unhinged, forcing Wendy and Danny to fight for survival.
