Mar 10 2010'The Shining' Cuckoo Clock Is So Good
According to designer Chris Dimino:
Every hour Jack breaks through the door and the famous line "Here's Johnny" plays followed by the scream of Shelly Duvall.
It's like experiencing a Jan Švankmajer-directed The Shining every 60 minutes! What an amazing thing Chris Dimino has created. That said, I never want this screaming nightmare anywhere near my apartment.

I thought last week's Guy Maddin joke was the Obscure/Genius gag line of the year, but you just topped yourself IWS Guy. Kick back and pop open a brewski, you earned it!

I never want this screaming nightmare anywhere near my apartment.

@6: You're talking about Jan Svankmajer, right?

irony, i'd imagine that clock would make me go as crazy as johnny from the movie if it really does that every 60 mins.
