OFOTCN or Shining for me.
I loved The Departed but Nicholson’s performance is actually the worst thing in it for me. Goes so over the top he becomes a parody of himself.

Chinatown my favourite scripted film of all time.
The Shining I first saw upstate New York in a house in woods with a US friend's brother, who laughed all the way through it.
My mate's father kept several guns and it was my first night staying there. There were bears in the woods.
I stuck a wardrobe against the door I was that shit scared after watching the film along with my mate's brother's rictus grin. Still the scariest film I've ever seen.
The Departed - I agree with Duffers completely. Nicholson's performance a total parody and almost wrecks what is a really good film.
Cuckoos Nest and The Last Detail I love.
