VOTD: Channel 4 Recreates The Shining

Recreating The Shining by Channel 4

The Pitch: Channel 4 has painstakingly recreated the set of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining for this 65-second one-take tracking shot complete with lookalikes of the cast. “Viewers get Kubrick’s point of view as he walks through the set, ending up in his director’s chair as the crew prepare to shoot the famous scene of Danny Torrance, the son of Duvall and Jack Nicholson’s characters, riding round and round the deserted corridors of the Overlook Hotel.”

    This is why Channel 4 (with it's digital channels) is one of the best British stations.

    Shame about the whole Big Brother thing really....
  • That is all kinds of brilliant.
  • I saw this trailer last night and it looked amazing.

    I'm looking forward to catching some Kubrick movies I haven't had the chance to watch yet
  • That was awesome. Just the quick sweep through the outdoor snow scene still brought back the tense feeling from watching the real thing. Very cool
