Creepiest part of the whole movie IMO. It’s just so out of place and just fricking weird/creepy.

IIRC, I believe there was a scene cut that explained that there were parties there where people dressed up like that (furries?) and these two snuck off to mess around. It’s just completely random and Danny was right to get freaked the frick out.

Pretty sure you’re right. Kubrick was a strange SOB.

Better than the 10 pounds of makeup, monkey’s arse lips, and fake everything else these days.

This was actually covered in the Q thread in detail, but the cabal got to the admins here.

I believe I read that it was part of an entire scene that was covered in tbe book, yet wasn't really a part in the movie, therefore it seems completely out of context.

For the first time I notice that Jack has each hand posed like the Baphomet statue holds its hands.

Cool horror movie move!
