Indeed, The Shining has become widely regarded as one of the greatest films of the horror genre and a staple of pop culture. It was named the all-time scariest film by the UK's Channel 4. Jack Torrance was named the 25th greatest villain on the AFI's 100 Years... 100 Heroes and Villains list in 2003. Director Martin Scorsese placed The Shining on his list of the 11 scariest horror films of all time. Unlike previous Kubrick films, which developed an audience gradually by building on word-of-mouth, The Shining was released as a mass-market film. Film critics, film students, and Kubrick's producer, Jan Harlan, have all remarked on the enormous influence the film has had on popular culture.
的确，人们广泛认为闪灵是恐怖电影中的经典之作，它也是流行文化的主要因素。英国4频道把闪灵命名为史上最恐怖的电影。2003年，在美国电影协会百年100名最佳坏蛋和英雄名列中，杰克·尼克尔森排在了坏蛋名单的第25名。导演马丁·斯科塞斯把这部影片收录到了他的11部最恐怖电影名单之中。不像库布里克之前的一些作品，他之前作品的观众都是口头相传，而闪灵拥有了更广阔的市场。影评人、学生、库布里克的制作人简·哈兰，他认为这部影片对流行文化产生了深远的影响。
