  Jack is shown to be increasingly unpleasant and brutal towards his wife and, as he spirals into madness.

  The music is intense and may be upsetting to sensitive viewers.

  The ending scene is one of the most intense and horrifying scenes ever made.

  In one scene, a small child is riding down the hall on a toy tricycle and sees two girls' ghosts (and then flashbacks of their bloody hacked up corpses).
