Did the video's new analysis change your view when looked at in a completely different light?
If the Wendy Theory holds then this is no longer a film about a fantastical hotel or a man who gets cabin fever and tries to kill his family.
In fact, in this light - it is perhaps about a woman who read "The Shining" by Stephen King and the novel is in her schizophrenic mind when she heads to a hotel.
No "Shining" and No ghosts - just a woman going mad. I would not put it past Kubrick to make you think you watched a movie you never really saw.
