I often think that scene sums up the atmosphere on set.<br /><br />Terminator: I agree with Simon on that point. Two very different films and both too be admired for different reasons. Although, my heart stays with the original.Alan Postingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09282179748734196674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2340541509924100043.post-22228949678354311442010-08-25T14:00:23.085-07:002010-08-25T14:00:23.085-07:00I read somewhere that The Shining is the only film...I read somewhere that The Shining is the only film to make the days of the week into something frightening - meaning the way 'monday' etc. pops up on the screen while those strings squeal in the background.

There are worth watching back to back just to compare what the film makers were able to achieve with very different budgets and technologies (and of course Linda Hamiltons hair).
