Movie and Media drinking games are simple, pick certain words or images and everyone must drink every time they are used through the course of the movie.

Choosing Stanley Kubrick’s chiller feels wrong, somehow – after all, it’s the tale of an alcoholic falling off the wagon and trying to murder his family.

And yet this game by Today’s Drinker is a celebration of all those stylistic quirks that make it such an effective scare-story.

THE RULES

Drink Every Time:
- Room 237 is shown or mentioned
- Tony is referenced
- A titlecard is used
- Jack’s writing is shown or mentioned
- The weather is referenced
- Anyone says “Torrance”

And if you really want to get wasted…
Anytime anyone sees something or someone that isn’t really there.

Likely Hangover: Doomed to haunt The Overlook for perpetuity with a sore head.
