From the Vault: Room 237 (2012 Film)

from Ink to Film

Director Rodney Ascher presents some of the wild interpretations of The Shining (1980) that persist to this day, each more fantastical than the next. Some theories seem grounded in reality, but others take massive leaps and arrive at outlandish ideas, none more ridiculous than the "moon landing footage was faked by Stanley Kubrick" theory. But is it possible that the entire documentary is actually a meta-exercise in showing fan obsession and over-analysis? Join Luke & James for this former Patreon-exclusive episode!
