They didn't address it too well in the movie, but in the book the man was one of many people at a costume party when the hotel was in its hey day!. Even then the hotel was influencing people and the party quickly turned into an orgy where the sex became more a form of punishment than enjoyment!. Jack gets somewhat involved in the party since the past and present was somewhat overlapping!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
THAT is one of the most disturbing and undiscussed images in the scariest movie of all time!
He appears to be involved in some kind of sex act while dressed as an animal!. It's one of the many quick edit images in the finale of the film but very powerful and disturbing!.
I find it weird it is not more mentioned in official reviews, they just seem to day "it's great" and look at Nicholson hacking through the door with the axe!. In fact it's one of the strangely most under-analysed top horror films in existence!. It's regularly publically voted the top scariest horror film in TV count-downs that make no attempt to investigate why!.
Possibly it's so utterly left field in the circumstances along with everything else happening that makes it so disturbing!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
