"Heeeeere's Johnny!" A shifty-eyed Jack Nicholson uttered this famous line through a hole in an ax-bludgeoned door in The Shining. That unforgettable movie moment, in addition to so, so many other memorable films are now showing in this vast collection of pictures from films beginning in the letter S.

From 1939's classic "Stagecoach" all the way to end-of-millennium motion pictures, this is an A+ lot of S movies. To name just a few of the hundreds of titles included: Seven, Soylent Green, Star Trek, Snow White, Schindler's List, Spaceballs, Spartacus, (The) Sound of Music, (The) Silence of the Lambs, Star Wars, Sophie's Choice, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Stand By Me, Singin' in the Rain, Sister Act, Sixteen Candles, Saturday Night Fever, Slapshot, Serpico, Sleepless in Seattle, Sling Blade and - of course - Scarface.
