doing a research project on final girls and i just have too much to say the horror girlies have taken over my brain

#i wanted to do it broader but we only have three parts #and one of them has to be original fiction #like just let me ramble pls just let me go off #thinking about the way some girls are monsters and some girls are heroes #and some girls are victims and some girls are survivors but not mythic like final girls #they just get to live #and how wendy torrance isn't a final girl and carrie isn't a final girl #but they're the most iconic examples of final girl imagery (holding a knife and screaming and drenched in blood respectively)#ugggghhhhhhh yea many thoughts many many thoughts #file this under things that are incomprehensible to anybody but me

Propaganda:

Finn: A very accurate portrayal of mental health and PTSD in a thriller series? What a miracle! Finn’s trauma is not played for scares, just relatability and realistically. Due to an incident as a child, she has an extreme interest in true crime, and may be getting stalked by not just one, but TWO people.

Wendy: Girl was in the most horrific situation and came out the other side. She is so close to the horror that she can touch it, she can see Jack’s descent into madness when she rifles through his papers, she’s part of one of the most iconic chase sequences and most quoted horror movie moments. Additionally, she’s the rare final girl who *did* get to have sex and be a little less “pure”

The Maze and the Snowstorm:

An Analysis of Symbolism and Central Themes of The Shining

Stanley Kubrick and Diane Johnson’s The Shining (1980) is often referred to as one of the best-directed films ever made. While this is in part due to the iconic camerawork in the movie, haunting soundtrack and solid characterization of the protagonists, in my opinion what really sets it apart is its use of symbolic imagery to communicate subconscious messages that unsettle the audience beyond the outward content of the film itself. In this essay, I will be discussing the repeating symbols of the maze and the snowstorm, and how they represent the central themes of madness and isolation in the film, respectively.

. . . . .

THE MAZE

Firstly, the Overlook Maze. Perhaps one of the most memorable visuals in the film, the maze is a recurring symbol in the movie: in the form of the actual physical maze, but also mirrored in the layout of the Overlook Hotel itself, with its high ceilings and narrow corridors that contribute so much to the film’s distinctive mise en scène.

While this set design serves its purpose in setting the claustrophobic, paranoia-inducing atmosphere of the film, I believe it also acts as a visual representation of Jack’s descent into madness, and the reality break experienced by all three protagonists. I feel this connection is best represented by the scenes from 26:20 to 27:40, where shots of Wendy and Danny navigating the maze are interspersed with Jack roaming the twists and turns of the Hotel, seemingly in a near-manic state.

. . . . .

THE SNOWSTORM

Going back to the mise en scène of the film, something else that stood out to me the most about the film’s production design was the busy, maximalist patterns and vivid colors present in the background of most shots set at the Overlook Hotel, be it set decor, or the clothing of the actors themselves. While this contributes massively to the dizzying, almost psychedelic visual look of the film, it also makes the cut to the snowstorm far more visually jarring to the viewer. The vast, empty white scenescape of the snowstorm contrasts heavily against the warmer, more “filled” look of shots filmed inside the hotel, which I think really drives home one of the central motifs of the film: isolation.

The snowstorm is initially what confines the Torrances to the Outlook Hotel, and physically isolates them from the outside world, and is therefore, by extension, the catalyst to Jack’s rapid descent into madness. I believe there is also an element of personal isolation experienced by each family member (each represented by the long tracking shots centered on each character scattered throughout the film): Jack’s isolation caused by alcoholism and his struggles to write, Wendy’s isolation caused by her strained relationship with her husband, and Danny’s isolation caused by his psychic abilities and disconnect from his parents.

. . . . .

In summary, I believe one of the main strengths of the film lies in the main themes of the film, madness and isolation, being further emphasized by their physical representations in the form of the maze and the snowstorm.
