I was entirely unaware that The Shining featured dead pirates building the pyramids of Egypt at the behest of an imprisoned Jack Torrance.
Click through for a collection of foreign movie posters for American films. As the guy says at the end of the presentation, you'll feel like you've gone insane. What they do to The Muppet Movie is nothing short of Nightmare Fuel. And I would have featured the poster for Harvey Keitel's Bad Lieutenant, but I want this blog to avoid running afoul of decency filters and remain available in public libraries.

that's not the Shining, dude. That's "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," and that huge guy holding a square-shaped object over his head is the Indian in that movie (the narrator of the book); pretty important scene.
You are right. The Milos Forman credit should have tipped me off. However, that picture of Nicholson is definitely from The Shining, of "Here's Johnny!" fame.

Also, if you look at the vampire things in the left lower corner, you get Shelley Duvall. And that guy is not Chief Bromden, and that is not a water fountain.
