The Shining

While watching the film The Shining there were various elements used to create suspense and tension. One of these scenes was when the main male character was in one of the hotel rooms and he found a naked woman in the bath. He started to kiss her but then as he looked into the mirror he abruptly stopped as he noticed that her skin was partially wasted away and she looked like an scary, ugly old woman. This made me jump because similiar to the man's knowledge we the viewer also saw her as a beautiful young woman so when it turned out that she wasn't, it was a very intresting scene to watch.
