The Shining - A Zombified Continuation
JUSTIN_C for Jack Torrance
Here's Johnny! Of course the main thing I'm seeking is the perfect Jack Nicholson impression for this project. If you can pull it off or be as close as possible lemme hear it! I've listed just a few lines but feel free to add more from the film if you wish (not required). I've listed these quotes to really hear the range of your voice. I want to hear his mild moments turned hot in seconds. Cursing will be in the script. The lines from the film will not be in the level everything will be written specifically for this in the mind set of a "sequel" but set in a never ending purgatory. Must have professional and clear audio quality.
Wendy, let me explain something to you. Whenever you come in here and interrupt me, you're breaking my concentration. You're distracting me. And it will then take me time to get back to where I was. You understand? Now, we're going to make a new rule. When you come in here and you hear me typing or whether you don't hear me typing, or whatever the fuck you hear me doing in here; when I'm in here, it means that I am working, that means don't come in. Now, do you think you can handle that? Now why don't you start right now and get the fuck out of here?
I'm awfully glad you asked me that, Lloyd. Because I just happen to have two twenty's and two tens right here in my wallet. And I was afraid there were gonna be there till next April. So, here's what: You slip me a bottle of bourbon, a cool glass and some ice. You can do that, can't you, Lloyd? You're not too busy, are you? [laughs sarcastically]
Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life. I'm not gonna hurt ya. You didn't let me finish my sentence. I said, I'm not gonna hurt ya. I'm just going to bash your brains in! [laughs] I'm gonna bash 'em right the fuck in!
Nicholson's delivery in this scene is so chilling because he makes his threats of violence seem disturbingly credible. It's his mixture of madness with the subtle tells of a spousal abuser that makes us genuinely worried for Wendy as Jack starts backing her up a flight of stairs. I like how you pulled off the impression without making all of that seem contrived.
Thank you very much!
Yes I agree with morgenstern. I like how it sounds more of a calmer approach in a way. Very interesting to hear. Thank you for auditioning!
No problem, thank you
