The Shining – ‘Here’s Johnny’
Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 horror flick The Shining is by far one of the most terrifying movies of all time. And one of the most memorable lines was during the climax of the movie. When Jack Nicholson’s character Jack Torrance says “Here’s Johnny!” it became a catchy two-liner. Amazingly, it was completely unscripted.

Nicholson said the line after popping his head through the bathroom door that he axed through. When asked about the line, Nicholson explained that the phrase was taken from the popular introduction of Johnny Carson on the TV legend’s 1950s variety show.
