| The entire
halloween episode "The Shinning" in Treehouse of Horror VI is
based on the movie "The Shining" from 1980. |
 |
|
 |
 |
|
 |
| Jack
Torrance and his family moves into the Overlook Hotel, as caretakers for
the winter. |
|
Mr
Burns hires the Simpson family to take care of the lodge for the winter.
|
 |
|
 |
| The
elevator/lift opens and lots of blood flows out. |
|
The
elevator/lift opens and lots of blood flows out. Mr Burns says that that's
odd, because the blood usually gets off at the second floor.
|
 |
|
 |
 |
|
 |
| Wendy
and Daniel takes a walk through the maze. |
|
There's
a maze at the lodge, but as opposed to Wendy and Danny, Bart walks straight
through thanks to his hedge cutter.
|
| |
|
 |
| Dick (to
the right) knows that the little boy's name is Danny (in the middle),
because they both have telepathic powers. |
|
Willie
discovers that Bart got telepathic powers. But Willie calls it "Shinning"
instead of "Shining" because he don't want to be sued. Wille says
that if Homer goes crazy, Bart can contact him.
|

 |
| |
|
Moe appear
as a ghost, and says that Homer will get a beer if he kills his family.
|
Homer
writes "NO TV AND NO BEER MAKES HOMER GO CRAZY" all over the
walls, just like Jack writes that "All work and no play makes jack
a dull boy" all over his papers. |
|
 |
|
|
 |
| Jack has
gone crazy, and Wendy threatens him with a bat. She eventually hits him.
|
|
Marge threatens Homer
with a bat, just like Wendy in the movie, but Homer screams when he sees
himself in the mirror and falls down the stairs.
|
| Marge
locks up Homer in the freezer, just like Wendy does. In the movie the
ghosts opens the door for Jack so he can kill his family, but here they
have to carry Homer out, because he just wants to eat. |
|
 |
 |
|
 |
| "Here's Johnny!" |
|
 |
| Homer
uses an axe to cut through the door just like Jack and screams "Here's
Johnny!", before he realises that he has cut through the wrong door. |
Homer
cuts through the second door and screams "David Letterman".
He sees Grampa Simpsons who says: "Hi David. I'm Grampa." |
|
 |
|
|
 |
| |
|
Homer cuts through
the third door and says: "I'm Mike Wallace, I'm Morley Safer, and
I'm Ed Bradley. All this and Andy Rooney tonight on 60 Minutes."
The family runs away screaming.
|
 |
|
 |
| Danny
writes REDRUM on the door, which is Murder backwards. |
|
In 9F12
Brother From the Same Planet, tries Bart to contact Homer with
telepathy, and Milhouse ends up writting "trab pu kcip" on the
wall which is "Pick up Bart" backwards. |
|
|
|
 |
| In the
episode 5F06 Reality Bites Marge became a real estate agent
and sold the "Murder House" to the Flanders. Ned tells Marge that
they're painting Todd's room with red painting. Todd says: “REDROOM,
REDROOM (REDRUM) over there!” |
|
Maggie
playing with her blocks: RedRum = Murder backwards |
Bart
uses his "shining" to contact Willie. Just like Danny contacts
Dick Hallorann
in the movie. Willie comes to help them but gets chopped in the back before
he has done anything. |
|
 |
In
the second story from the same Halloween special "Time and
Punishment", Willie shows up in the Simpsons house to help
Homer return to his own dimension, but Willie gets stabbed in the back,
by Maggie, before he has done anything. |
|
 |
In
the third story from the same Halloween special "Nightmare
Cafeteria", Willie shows up to help the children escape
from Principal Skinner and the rest of the teachers who wants to eat them.
Willie gets stabbed in the back, by Skinner, before he has done anything.
|
|
 |
Homer
chases his family out into the nature, but Lisa finds a miniature tv and
gives it to Homer so his urge to kill is fading. |
|
 |
| |
|
|
 |
|
 |
Jack chases Wendy
and Danny into the nature. He follows Danny into the maze, but freezes
to death before he gets out. Danny manages to get out, and he and Wendy
leaves in the snowplow Dick arrived with.
|
|
The family ends up
glaciated, just like Jack, and when they can't change away from the "Tony
Awards" because they're all frozen, Homer's urge to kill starts rising
again. |

the Simpsons images were captured by Henrik, except the "trab pu
