Jack Nicholson's performance in the classic horror film The Shining is nothing short of phenomenal. He's got that eerie charm as he plays the role of Jack Torrance that makes you uneasy from the get-go. The delivery of his iconic lines in the movie might still give the audience chills. As Hollywood has often overlooked the horror genre for Academy Award nominations, Nicholson couldn't get nominated for one of his legendary performances.
