but The Shining imo has aged much better than Halloween

i never liked the Shining to begin with it just never drew my attention and i found myself even bored at times.... people will agrue that movies from the 80s and 90s are dated,, i look at it as if the movie is enjoyable i dont care what year it was made.. so of my favorite older movies- Halloween, The Thing, Godfather 1 & 2 even Jaws was made in 75 and that movie still is an extremely powerful horror movie and up there with Halloween.. just some examples

yea i agree....if its a good movie, its a good movie.... regardless of when it was made... i just never thoguht Halloween was anything special, even as a little kid it didnt scare me or anything...

The Shining has sentimental value for myself too and just played a bigger role in my life than Halloween did
