Stanley Kubrick - Visionary Filmmaker Collection

In Stanley Kubrick's horror classic THE SHINING, a former schoolteacher accepts a caretaker job at a remote hotel in the Colorado Mountains, only to become possessed by the unspeakable evil that lurks within its walls. His gradual transformation from mild-mannered husband and father to crazed axe-murderer is something to behold and will forever be remembered by the catchphrase "Heeere's Johnny!" In the steamy drama EYES WIDE SHUT, a man is subjected to the ultimate betrayal when his wife admits to having nearly had an affair. This sets him off on a journey of sexual discovery. FULL METAL JACKET follows marine Private Joker, from his extra-tough boot camp training through to climatic involvement in the Vietnam War and particularly the heavy fighting at Hue during the bloody 1968 Tet offensive. In Kubrick's epic 2001 – A SPACE ODYSSEY, a highly evolved civilisation sets up mysterious monolithic objects on Earth, the Moon, and in orbit around Jupiter. These objects acts as vital clues to the survival of ancient man, and later signal man to travel deep into space. When man arrives on the great civilisation's planet he is reborn with immense powers of wisdom and strength. Rounding off the set is the ultra-violent A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, in which a gang of teenagers go on the rampage beating and raping helpless victims. After an altercation, one gang member is knocked unconscious and left for dead. When the police find him, they perform a controversial new 'aversion therapy' in an attempt to rid him of his violent impulses. Upon his release, the gang come after him...
