Even if you haven’t seen The Shining, you know about its iconic “Here’s Johnny!” scene, which is why it’s all the more enlightening to discover that it appears to be based on Victor Sjöström’s 1921 silent era masterpiece The Phantom Carriage. Just one look at this handy shot-by-shot comparison of the two respective sequences confirms it, and given that Kubrick’s brother-in-law Jan Harlan lists it among the legendary director’s 93 favorite films, it’s safe to say that Kubrick took some righteous inspiration from this milestone in horror filmmaking. Though it’s difficult and even painful to argue against the originality of one of the most notable horror set pieces of all time, this homage is not dissimilar from, say, all of the B-movie and foreign film classics that Quentin Tarantino paid tribute to in Kill Bill, or even David Fincher’s open reverence for Le Samouraï that he channels throughout The Killer (in theaters now). It’s not stealing as much as it is recreating a piece of iconicity for a new generation.
