The Shining is a horror movie classic, a maniacal thriller featuring a star turn by Jack Nicholson. In the first of a trend that would last for years, 'Shining' repositions the spooktastic Stanley Kubrick blockbuster as a family-friendly buddy comedy via a remixed trailer that touts Peter Gabriel on back-up and flashes of Jack's toothy grin. Hilariously subversive, 'Shining' manages to point out the formulaic Hollywood preview that so often makes us look like total dum-dums -- and set the stage for many similar remixes to come in the future.
