Great New Poster for THE SHINING Documentary ROOM 237
Check out this great new theatrical poster for the upcoming documentary Room 237, which is full of awesome mind blowing conspiracy theories based on Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. This is a must watch film for anyone who loves The Shining! I love how the new poster pays tribute to the film's original yellow theatrical poster that was created by Saul Bass.
There's just so much information packed into this movie, it will take multiple viewings to get all of the secrets that reside in the Overlook Hotel! Make sure to check out our review of the film here if you haven't already!
Here's the synopsis...
After the box office failure of Barry Lyndon, Stanley Kubrick decided to embark on a project that might have more commercial appeal. The Shining, Stephen King’s biggest critical and commercial success yet, seemed like a perfect vehicle. After an arduous production, Kubrick’s film received a wide release in the summer of 1980; the reviews were mixed, but the box office, after a slow start, eventually picked up. End of story? Hardly. In the 30 years since the film’s release, a considerable cult of Shining devotees has emerged, fans who claim to have decoded the film’s secret messages addressing everything from the genocide of Native Americans to a range of government conspiracies. Rodney Ascher’s wry and provocative Room 237 fuses fact and fiction through interviews with cultists and scholars, creating a kaleidoscopic deconstruction of Kubrick’s still-controversial classic.
The movie hits theaters on March 29th, 2013. If you missed the trailer for the doc check it out below!
