One of the few movies that are better than the book.
Hudson Baker
because he's an insane person of high questionable morality
Henry Richardson
Watched it alone with headphones at night when I was like 16. Terrified me. Now it's just a good movie, not very scary but unsettling.
Lucas Collins
Kubrick cut out all the underaged sex scenes from the novel.

True, but he thought it lacked what the novel conveyed. Mainly in regards to plot and character development and how the movie ended. Had Kubrick made the movie according to King's wishes we certainly wouldn't have the brilliant movie we have today.

I found nicholson very attractive in this movie, no homo

It's a rather fascinating movie, at least if you directly compare it to the novel it's adapted from. It's should be an extremely faithful adaption. Broadly speaking, the same things happen in the movie and the book. Yet they're almost fundamentally different for no other reason than how differently they characterize the protagonist.
Kind obviously viewed Jack as a rather sympathetic character, a flawed but overall decent man corrupted by evil forces to commit violence against the people he loves. To Kubrick he was a bad person from the very first moment we see him. We don't know as much about his past as we do in the book but Nicholson's performance speaks volumes about what Kubrick meant him to be. There's an intense, barely repressed anger to him from his very first scene. He seems to resent his family and most of his fellow people. It's not the story of a decent man being corrupted, it's the story of a bad man being unleashed. In the end we see him as what he was always meant to be: another vengeful spirit of the Overlook Hotel.

Not sure why I found it so terrifying as a kid. Its not really scary. Still an amazing film though.

looks like this user already beat me to it
that pumping bass you hear is just a heartbeat sound effect added over the scene. It isn't in the actual music used for the scene.
and if you're into music, the Black Panther soundtrack revived a long lost smash hit. It's kino to the ears.
