058 - The Shining (1980)

January 06, 2026 • The Cinebytes • Season 3 • Episode 6

This is KDK-12 to KDK-1! This is KDK-12 to KDK-1! Come in!

Just kiddin', it's your pals The Cinebytes, back to kick off 2026 with a SUPER SIZED episode on a SUPER GREAT movie!

You know it, you love it, it's one of everyone's faves...except maybe Stephen King...it's Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980)!

And know it and love it as you may...do you know how different it is from the book? Are you aware of the wild conspiracy theories surrounding it? Did you know that whether you play it forwards, or backwards (or both), it's just as awesome?

We get into all of this and more as we unravel one of the wildest family dramas since my last Thanksgiving! Just light a fire, grab a bourbon, and let us regale you with EVERYTHING (we know) about this 46 year old masterpiece!
