After a long hiatus, kaptainkristian is back! This time he's looking at the many layers of the movie The Shining. He's seen the movie many times, so he shows us things we'd never noticed before, and how work together to give us a sense of building dread through the film.

Kaptainkristian takes a deep dive into the music and sound design of the film, which is a work of art once you understand how it was done. It's no wonder that people are still obsessed with this film even 40 years later. The video is only 12 minutes; the rest is an ad. -via <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/r0f3y6/the_invisible_horror_of_the_shining/">reddit&nbsp;</a>​ If you found this interesting, you'll want to <a href="https://www.neatorama.com/tag/kaptainkristian/">see more</a> of kaptainkristian's pop culture analysis videos.&nbsp;#TheShining #moviescore #kaptainkristian
