Shining

[Needleinvein]

This one does: Jack is a writer who, looking for inspiration, visits the Overlook hotel, where fatherless Danny is staying. One day, Danny hears Jack crying in his room (I suppose), and, as the door is open, decides to check out what's wrong. From then on, they become friends, and Jack falls in love with Danny's mom. From then on, it's your generic drama family feel-good movie... Danny gets a new dad, Jack finds his inspiration through Danny (or love)...

I gathered all that from a fake trailer.

[Needleinvein]

This is the best "swapped-genre-fake-trailer" out there, because unlike all the other ones, you can kinda imagine what the fake plot is like.

I mean, in trailers like Horror Movie Toy Story, all they do is add generic creepy background music with out of context creepy scenes, but there isn't an actual underlying storyline.

[TheDivingboy]

every trailer should be like this....SUPRISE!!! :D OH SHIT LET ME GO OUT OF THE CINEMA NOWWW...PLEASEEE!!! :D

[Sylvia21]

I felt like "Young Adult" had a trailer this deceiving.

[hunthell]

Hey, maybe I should rent this video!

2 hours later...

OH SWEET MERCIFUL JESUS WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WATCH

[OneeDirectionn2011]

*People who watched this trailer and have no idea what its about*: I really wanna see this! It looks cute...

*watching the movie*: Holy crap! Why did I buy this?

[sullivanesque]

Starts out as an average american joe family movie.

Ends up as one of the scariest movies of all time.

[Iheartnihon]

LOLOL! XD

[0180917]

Someone needs to do this for A Clockwork Orange, 2001, Full Metal Jacket, and Eyes Wide Shut...all as romantic comedies.

[shastantex]

@0180917 Brokeback Metal Jacket, I can see it now: twisting Sgt. Hartman's words to sound like he's asking them for fellatio and other moves

[0180917]

@shastantex 2001: A Brokeback Odysey, about two latent homosexual astronauts who don't express their feelings for one another, and the homophobic but secretly jealous computer.

[LePatay]

Best thing ever?

[almostabner]

Love this, BUT....where in the original film does Jack ever say "I'm your new foster father?"

[Velox415]

I'll have to go watch this movie; it looks so cute!

[1TheShining1]

@Velox415 believe me, its not :| :P

[k7of]

wow the trailer is so confusing! the shining is one of the scariest films of All-Time

[minamu8]

Gotta love "PSA" at the end of the video URL.

[minamu8]

This is so well done, whoever made it is brilliant.

[kellykosmic23]

here's johnny.

[DnH38]

awesome

[PepinaBailarina]

How have I gone six years without ever having seen this?

[SummerGoesRawr48]

Wow.....this makes the shining look funny...

[IchRufeHannoverFist]

27.02.2006 - nearly 6 years and i missed it until now, thats a shame

[cjhrjone54]

o.o

[youstinkofshit]

Why does the kid talk too hes finger ?

[ironman123345]

CAN SOMEBODY EXPLAIN ME WHY THIS GARBAGE MOVIE IS #1 OF HORROR MOVIES.



[mcbain752]

@ironman123345 I agree. It's clearly a romcom.

[stevenvdwekken]

@ironman123345 because this is not the actuelly trailer :D

[nappydaza83]

@ironman123345...rent the movie and you will see why....whoever made this trailer made it look like a comedy...and did a fine good job i would say

[paizlea]

@ironman123345 Tony said I shouldn't tell you.

[AllMySecrets21]

@ironman123345 This is a parody of the original movie... It's mean to look happy.

[weedbeast13]

@ironman123345 Twilight fan huh? oh well, someday you'll grow up and like real movies...like a big person.

[DINDRAGON]

@ironman123345 Because you touch yourself at night.

[RodrigorMortis95]

its actually looks like a legit comedy film. wow, excellent job.

[djopulence]

SHEENIUS!

[monsterinyourpocket]

Tagline: No work and all play makes this a festive treat for all the family!

[YouLikeDoNow]

The song that starts at 0:50 is in the Vanilla Sky trailer too

[poptartsandburgers]

WHAT........THE............FUC­K?!??!???

[Fanofcartoons1994]

Where's the offical trailer for this movie?

[Liberto011]

Ahahahahhahahahahahahahhahaa..­....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahah­hahahahaha.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[jonanjello]

So humorous and Creative

[i1killed2god3]

So I like how some of these idiots commenting think this trailer is real. Obviously some people never watched good movies...

[theburningcreeper]

this trailer doesn't really tell the person watching it know what the movie is about

[Ashlinn31]

@theburningcreeper I hope you're joking!

[TheBeatlesRoooock]

@thepersonatepie When making the movie, they decided to switch it to 237 so that people wouldn't avoid 217 at the Stanley Hotel. Learn your facts.

[pelle00]

this is the funniest thing ive ever seen

[keyblok]

@thepersonatepie lol

Correction FAIL.

[SamuelJacobMcMichael]

@1ColdSoldier thank you so much, Captain Obvious. I could've never figured that out without your phenomenal insight.

[Blitz5440]

so funny! great job!

[1ColdSoldier]

this makes the movie seem happy... IT IS NOT

[mattc867]

@1ColdSoldier

Congratulations...you get it!

[antonia17cowan]

hahaha hilarious

[Stevendu51100]

Good evening I have several questions about this film.

Would you advise me to look more in French or English subtitled?

Is it suitable from the book?

Is it really scary?

Because I'm pretty sensitive so I even much afraid of being traumatized.

Sorry if I express myself badly but I'm French.

[imconfusedenough]

@Stevendu51100 i think look more in french, if you feel that your english isn't good enough. but i think it would be fine if you look more in english. Yes this movie is scary. i don't if you would find it really scary. but i have to say most of the images are pretty freaky.

[Stevendu51100]

@imconfusedenough Okay thanks :)

[McflyJonesSkywalker]

This is copied..

[fallenbeast666]

Why would over 3 million idiots watch this garbage?? :D

[Ashlinn31]

@fallenbeast666 ?

[ChaffyCougar]

Let's make the family shine!

[Mlavidiere]

what's the Music at the end plz? :)

[StormyK2011]

@Mlavidiere Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel

[dratalsky]

This may be the funniest thing I've ever seen. And I know funny.

[machidaboy]

Usually I hate these, but this one gave me a chuckle.

[CourteneyRice]

This is very clever.

[peraponyoyo]

oh is very drama

[SibSpi]

1. Show this to oblivious 30-something parents

2. Get them to rent the film for their kids

3. ???

4. Most cultured kids EVER

[Needleinvein]

@SibSpi Oh, and tell them to buy the book too!

[tcla75]

LOL My Girlfriend hates horrors so showed her this trailer so she would watch it with me. She was like ya that looks good. She was not a happy bunny at the end of the film :)

[DINDRAGON]

@tcla75 Was the couch any comfortable?

[MrnoWun0]

@themenaceanish you should have watched it with your mum holding you're hand

[themenaceanish]

@MrnoWun0 What's a 'mum'?

[MrnoWun0]

@themenaceanish Google it mon like you do everything else 0_O

[MrnoWun0]

@themenaceanish See I told ya

[MorbidBliss22]

Every time the song starts playing I totally lose it. Too fucking funny.

[kufygfykt]

I'm going to show someone this trailer, and then have them watch the movie!

[QueenB4Life]

@kufygfykt they shit themselves

[DINDRAGON]

@kufygfykt The best way to punish film-illiterate people!

[billthedonkey2]

SOLSBURY HILL!

[Ttrizzi]

I dont get it....

[IMakeVeryDumbVids]

@Ttrizzi Do you know the movie The Shining? if not, search it on google or IMdB.

[mrbossai1]

Directed By James L. Brooks

[antonia17cowan]

hahhahaha

[cwgumby]

well done



[classCexplosive]

I literally could not stop laughing when i saw this video

[fofofinnie]

This video is too good to be true. My friend actually said "I thought the movie was horror" after he saw this. And because of this video, I did a very similar type of video, but to the awesome 28 Days Later! Check out my channel if you want to watch it...

[socom3hayden]

lmfao!!!

[nikahrtzmusicx]

Wait... i thought it was meant to be a horror?

[m0lecul0]

wow, this fake trailer even managed to include a glimpse of the woman in the bathtub scene. nice.

[swiley1983]

I think Peter Gabriel wrote that song just for this.

[Tzxer]

LOOOOOL I SEE WHAT THEY DID THERE

[TheAwesomekman]

ok just because people won't stop fucking replying to my comment, i just thought i'd say this. THAT WAS A JOKE. my god people... i can understand 1 or 2 people believing that but literally every day i've been getting another idiot replying to me AND IT'S FUCKING ANNOYING. so stop. that was a joke, i thought people would understand that but clearly not. geeze...

[liegemattratze]

0:37 what's that melody? it sounds familiar

[Raincitywarrior]

why would u rent a rated R movie for kids dumbfuck

[lxxllllxxl]

Which is the music that appears first, the two before Solsbury Hill?

[SnoreFox]

@lxxllllxxl That's music from the show House.

[cliffto6]

I hope they re-play this trailer on cinema... D:

[darekdd]

The movie wasn't scary at all, it is alright for an average movie...But nothing more

[MrBlahblahgaga]

Stupidest trailer ever!

[horseloversomuch950]

LOL i cant stop laughing

[lululover333]

Huh? Ohhh... I was looking for THE Shining... lol XD

[TheSunshineSwine]

ROFL @ theawesomekman for reals made my day!

[spydude123]

BEST TRAILER EVER! THIS MOVIE IS ONLY ABOUT FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE!!

[RaLOfficial]

@spydude123 haha yes, yes it is

[hinatachan96]

@spydude123 and I am Oprah Winfrey

[spydude123]

@hinatachan96 Bawha. xDDD

[earlysunsetsover2019]

lol the boy is writing redrum at 0:18

[HYO1k]

Horror my butt

[TheSuperCommentGuy]

Taking one of the most iconic horror movies of time and changing it into a family movie. Awesome.

[Theandrewsmith1]

this is so good!!

[LukePearson06]

This is fucking fantastic, excellent editing.

[shannondangc]

wow what a misleading trailer! haha

[EddY90CS]

lol!!! xD so funny!!! "The Shining" is the best horror movie to me (Y)

[ninhquanghieu]

1:10 he sure didn't kiss Danny's mom. =D

[kittyfanatic220]

hahhahahaha. omggggg

[PrivateeRyann]

0.10 When Jacks typing, the way you turn every creepy moment into a typical comedy moment, its brilliant : )

[old3nough1]

@Theawesomekman nice comment man, very funny, but seriously? That's not really possible. Look at the cover of the DVD, read some of the back. It's rated R. It's one of the most distrurbing psychoactive horror films out there. Does that sound like something you'd want to show your kids?

[TeddyD4]

What a nice misleading trailer.

[Jelyjiggler]

Lol this is the best parody ive ever scene

[nsesite]

As bad as it gets

[PrivateeRyann]

Hahhaha, just watched the film and i gotta say, this is so funny

[phycosocial100]

Umm .. Nice spoof bro (;

[cruzruiz92]

Hahahahahahaha...

[hank0rz]

What a bunch of underage faggots here who don't know this great movie. I love your trailer, laughed my ass off. Great job!

[anubisamber]

I thought this was a horror movie ?

[popshotizbeast]

@anubisamber Hahaha. They fooled you!!!

[threeshadesofgreen]

why doese this seem happy but the movie is creepy?

[mapledudeboy]

@threeshadesofgreen That' exactly what i was thinking...

[muteeurrahman]

McG sent me here.

[snowfencer]

Thank you, this made my night just that much better.

[Dyerdi]

@SethHesio haha yeah. good one

[SethHesio]

I'd love to show someone this trailer, who hadn't seen the film, and then show them the film and see how they react to the actual film...

[Bonolovesme]

@SethHesio Brilliant

[Frightwolf]

It's amazing how something as simple as trailer music can change the entire tone.

[toothyboy11]

THIS IS A F**KING HORROR FILM

[StretchMcGee]

@toothyboy11 Yeah, be careful when meeting women or you could end up saddled with a kid that's not yours! Oh, the horror!

[Dyerdi]

i thought this is horror O.O

[toothyboy11]

@Dyerdi it is this is just bullsh*t

[IWouldCallMeAlina]

@Dyerdi oh trust me.. it is, the trailer was just redone

[ferinkyra]

this is sooooooooooo classic.

[tsinoh34]

Man this trailer could have fooled me to watch this haha

[willkillyoulast]

I keep thinking of those twinkly-eyed smiles/grins in cartoons like Pokemon whenever the voice says "Shining"

[50srocknrollfan18]

0:43, did that little kid just walk randomly into an apartment and sit next to a depressed man in his bed? seems legit

[willkillyoulast]

@50srocknrollfan18 You seen the movie? It makes more sense if you've seen it haha.

[MorrisTheMushroom]

I actually thought this was what "The Shining" was about until I read the book....

[JoniMae2000]

Wow! A total horror movie turned in to a family friendly movie! LOVE IT

[ThePsuedo]

Fan trailer is a trap!

[TheAwesomekman]

wtf? i just rented this movie to watch with the kids i was babysitting. now they start crying whenever they get within 10 feet of their dad. thanks a lot, asshole...

[000LOZA]

@TheAwesomekman

HAHA

[Jelyjiggler]

@TheAwesomekman i hope your joking

[PrivateeRyann]

@TheAwesomekman Hahahah, really, if it isnt a joke, its the funniest thing i ve ever heard

[verycoolchicka]

@TheAwesomekman um this is a horror movie dont blame them becase your dumbass let children was a Stephen king thriller. the only asshole is you for being an iidiot

[TheAwesomekman]

@verycoolchicka no, actually the only dumbass here is you, because that was A FUCKING JOKE. geeze, some people are so stupid...

[verycoolchicka]

@TheAwesomekman like u

[theallnewvolvo]

@TheAwesomekman youre an idiot

[HBK1337]

@TheAwesomekman are you serious? or are you just joking?

[SxcMgXx]

@TheAwesomekman Then clearly you should have been smart enough to read the back of the film.

its clearly AGED 18 ON THE COVER!!

[hinatachan96]

@TheAwesomekman why didn't you stop the freaking movie after 10 minutes when it starts getting creepy ?

[lxxllllxxl]

@TheAwesomekman ignorant...

[horrorfinatic]

@TheAwesomekman I can't believe how many people took your comment seriously. It was so obvious you were joking.

[DINDRAGON]

@TheAwesomekman You can't imagine how much I pray that you are not joking! That would be like the lulziest missfortune inflicted by the internet!

[PogieJoe]

Just "Shining" Haha Brilliant!

[TheEliminator1987]

OMG this Trailer is amazing :D

Love it. Love Shining.

[TheCharacterActor]

That is SO WRONG!

[MrsMichaelJackson8]

most retarded trailler ever. :/ this movie is great, but its not a happy go lucky movie about danny looking for a dad. its about dannys dad (jack( going crazy and tring to kill them.. gawd

[Mxtylplk]

@MrsMichaelJackson8 That's the joke you imbecile.

[ferncats]

@MrsMichaelJackson8 HAHA wow, I think you missed the point of this video...

[bussyahead09]

Shelley Duvall would be an excellent choice to be cast as a "walker" on AMC's The Walking Dead...

This is only an opinion, of course.

[Assassin0798]

i love this movie all the positive vibes and good moral lessons na im just fucking with ya its a fucking great scary movie

[xXTrueSShotX]

This movie looks so nice! I'm gonna watch it!

[siolbybon342]

Thumbs up if siobhan magnus sent you here
