Why does this have a 5.7 whilst The Shining (1980) has an 8.4?


IMDb ratings are all over the place!

Because most people think the main characters of this besides Freddy and Jason suck. I like this though I do think The Shining is a better movie.

Ikr, this one is far more entertaining.
Kubrick is the most overrated hack ever! Him and Nolan have made the most pretentious pieces of boring garbage I've seen.

Nope, I'm not an ignorant who hates classic cinema, I absolutely love most Hitchcock movies, Frankenstein, Rosemary's Baby and so many others, but Kubrick bores me to death.

Have you tried Ritalin?

Regardless of how you feel about Kubrick, his filming techniques were far ahead of his time, and became the standard for Film making by the 80s and through out the 90s.

Because The SHINING was a Masterpiece, despite what Stephen King will tell you while Freddy vs Jason was dogshit
