can’t believe that poo poo is real lol

Kane trashes his room [chair rattles]
Jack Torrance axes through the door [wood scent sprayed into face]
Henry Fonda convinces the jury [strobe lights]

we're following the exact same gimmick sequence from the 50s.

The film tells the story of a scientist who discovers a parasite in human beings, called a "tingler", which feeds on fear. The creature earned its name by making the spine of its host "tingle" when the host is frightened. In line with other Castle horror films, including Macabre (1958) and House on Haunted Hill (1959), Castle used gimmicks to sell the film. The Tingler remains most well known for a gimmick called "Percepto!", a vibrating device, in some of the theater chairs, which the onscreen action activated.
