I get it that you were terribly bored. Should at least do something better though, write a fiction etc. That at least helps with your creativity and provides an outlet for you to vent.
Or try to beat Ethereal Queen on Chaos.

To be honest though. Kubrick's The Shining is a very bad adaption of a very good book. It's also pretty bad in its own right.The Shining, bad? Really? I mean, really? Really? No, really? Really? Really?
Honestly, I didn't really like the book. Too much reliance on ghosts and the supernatural to deliver the scare the movie did. The movie relied on the evil of the characters themselves, which is more likely what happens in that situation rather than ghost stories. My two cents though.

But I don't agree with you that the movie is bad. It's a more "believable" horror movie. "What happens if you put a man in isolation for 6 months?"
Why do you think The Shining is bad?
I has always kinda rubbed me the wrong way. It can be that I have a hard time looking away from the fact that I really like the book and that I actually read it before I watched the movie.
Trying to look at the movie objectively I have a hard time to take Jack Nicholsons character seriously in the movie. He does a great performance, absolutely, but I find the character more comedic than realistic and scary. I put The Shining somewhere along the lines of the Terror on Elm street movies in scary/comedic sense.
